Forget Met Not by Julie Soto is $3.99! This is a contemporary romance debut and I mentioned this one on a previous Hide Your Wallet. I liked this one! The book does switch between past and current events to show more of the main couple’s previous history, but I understand it could be a jarring format for the reader.
The Lady Travelers Guide to Scoundrels and Other Gentlemen by Victoria Alexander is $1.99! This is the first book in the Lady Travelers Society series and it has, you guessed it, lady travelers. Readers say the plot takes a while to pick up, but others say this historical romance is both sweet and funny.
Scandalous by Minerva Spencer is $1.99! This is book three in the Outcasts series and I just love the colors and pop of the blue dress on the cover. I think Spencer’s romances are love ’em or hate ’em type books, as they use a lot of Old Skool tropes. How are those handled? What do you think?

RECOMMEND: Hurts to Love You by Alisha Rai is $3.99! This is the third book in the Forbidden Hearts series. It’ll probably behoove you to read the previous books (the previous one is also on sale!), as this one does wrap up some things. Elyse wrote a Lightning Review for this one and gave it a B+.
To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth Hoyt is 99c! This is book one in the Legend of the Four Soldiers series and was mentioned in a Rec League on Historical Romance House Parties. Readers warn that the beginning is a little slow, but if you’re looking to fully collect all of Hoyt’s romances, 99c is a good price!
Phoenix Unbound by Grace Draven is $1.99! I gave this one a C-, but I’d still recommend it with large caveats. 1) All of the trigger warnings. 2) It’s dense and the slow burn is quite slow. 3) There’s a magical infertility cure. Draven’s writing is always top notch and I’m curious about the next book, which follows a different couple.

RECOMMENDED: Someone to Wed by Mary Balogh is $1.99! To say Elyse loved this book is an understatement. She gave it an A:
It was emotionally rich, with a deeply engaging, slow-building romance centered around a conflict that didn’t ruin me. There’s sadness there, but not darkness.
If you love slow-burn romance or just a really beautifully written Regency, pick up Someone to Wed. You won’t be disappointed.
