Poison Promise is the eleventh in the Elemental Assassin series by Jennifer Estep. It's on sale for £2.99 at Kindle UK, which is a bit high IMO for a book that is more than a decade old. OTOH, it's hasn't been on sale for less in either the US or UK, per eReaderIQ.

Gin Blanco is hard-nosed, sexy, and lethal. Nicknamed “The Spider,” she’s a stone elemental assassin who brings her unique mix of magic and tact to every assignment, no matter the target.

There’s a new drug on the streets of Ashland, and its name “Burn” sums up the potent effect it has on its users. When one of her restaurant employees is threatened by dealers of the drug, Gin steps in to set things straight…

Actually, five more books in Estep's Elemental Assassin series just hit my eReaderIQ notifications for £2.99 each. Don't know if more are coming, but don't feel like typing that many titles anyway! So, to make it easier, here are links for the series webpages:

Three years later, Just for Fun is free again...

This author is one of a very few contemporary romance authors I really like, and bonus (!!!), many of her books are Kindle Unlimited and/or go on sale/free really often. But they usually don't stay on sale or free for very long, so grab this one right away if you want it.

Spoiler:
Welcome to the world of Harmony, where—despite its name, things are anything but—danger lurks just beneath the surface in this new novel by New York Times bestselling author, Jayne Castle.

If there’s something Ravenna Chastain knows, it’s when to end things. And after she almost winds up the victim of a cult that believes she’s a witch, it’s easy to walk away from her dead-end career, ready for a new start. But where to find a job that would allow her to use her very specialized skill set? The answer is clear: she becomes a matchmaker.

But even a successful matchmaker can’t find someone for everyone, and Ravenna considers Ethan Sweetwater her first professional failure. After nine failed dates, Ravenna knows it’s time to cut Ethan loose. But Ethan refuses to be fired as a client—he needs one final date to a business function. Since Ravenna needs a date herself to a family event, they agree to a deal: she will be his (business) date if he will be her (fake) date to her grandparents’ anniversary celebration.

What Ethan fails to mention is that attending the business function is a cover for some industrial espionage that he’s doing as a favor to the new Illusion Town Guild boss. Ravenna is happy to help, but their relationship gets even more complicated when things heat up—the chemistry between them is explosive, as explosive as the danger that’s stalking Ravenna. Lucky for her, Ethan isn’t just an engineer—he’s also a Sweetwater, and Sweetwaters are known for hunting down monsters…

This weekend's Joffe Free Friday romance is Healing Hearts in the Little Village, which is the second in Ella Cook's Broclington series.

Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C8TZ2Y8L
Kindle UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0C8TZ2Y8L

Spoiler:
Quote:
One broken-hearted city doctor. A countryside surgery in need of a new GP. The perfect love story bound to get your pulse racing . . .

Dr Liv Emery is at her wits end. Her perfect life was within her grasp. Instead she’s dealing with the fallout of being dumped by her long-term boyfriend in the cruellest way possible.

Then on top of everything else, a patient goes berserk on her. It’s the final straw, and there’s only one thing for it . . . A new start.

So she jumps at the chance to cover her former professor’s GP surgery in the Cotswolds and waves goodbye to the city. And good-for-nothing men.

Life in the village of Broclington is a far cry from London — and her cottage is a welcome change from her old shoebox flat. But her relief is short-lived after meeting her prickly boss Callum.

But perhaps he has his reasons . . . It’s not easy juggling being a single parent to a fairy-obsessed six-year-old while staving off bosses breathing down his neck about funding cuts.

The more Liv gets to know Callum and his daughter, the more she realizes she may be able to help them — and the village practice — more than she could have imagined.

But will her time in Broclington be the healing experience she so desperately needs, or could she end up heartbroken once again?

There are also a mystery and a Spanish 1800s royal history going for free, and posted in the appropriate threads.

To be fair the external plot was OTT ridiculous and whacky, but the h/h's romance was adorable. My rating was much more for the romance.

This is basically a continuation of her Rocky Mountain Bounty Hunters seires and features characters from her Rocky Mountain Search and Rescue series. So if you liked In Her Sights or Risk It All I think you will like this one. But parts read like a comical farce so set expectations accordingly.

I haven't read anything of Ruggle's so would go in with not many expectations, but will keep that in mind. I did go take a look, and the ARC is still available after publication date, which is rare, so I requested it. And will see if it comes through, which is even rarer after publication date, but not unknown. If not, I'll keep an eye out and give something else of hers a try in the future. I've liked several of your other recommendations ...

When Maddy’s husband Rob suddenly announces that he’s leaving her and moving to Canada with his pretty young employee, her world comes crashing down.

As Rob’s promises of financial support prove worthless, Maddy finds herself under growing pressure to forge a new life for herself and her four children. She decides to start a catering business, but will it earn enough money — and is that what she really wants? And then along comes the gorgeous Guy Deverill in the strangest of circumstances …

Fate conspires to throw every obstacle in her path from planning laws to sick children but she won’t give up.

Another Aliette de Bodard book that probably fits in between romance and sci-fi:

A Fire Born of Exile, is described as a "standalone sci-fi romance", however based on other books I've read by de Bodard, which are heavier on the sci-fi/fantasy than on the romance, I posted it there. In any case, it's £0.99 in the UK right now.

Reviewed as "Sapphic version of the Count of Monte Cristo". Starts with riots and has state sanctioned torture. Second in that "storyverse" but standalone. So maybe just the SF setting of previous book, lesbian romance and plot of "The Count of Monte Cristo".

At 99c € on Kobo you can make up your own mind cheaply.
