This doesn't seem to have been mentioned yet, but Kobo's Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale in Canada & the US (expiring today, Jan 11th), looks like it's completely composed of Diversion Books titles, some of whose backlist romance reprints you may have enjoyed.
Anyway, if you were looking to get effectively 50% off the regular prices (stacks with the VIP member discount for the extra 10% off the base price before B1G1F), there's a whole bunch of romance & chick-lit titles mostly at the $3 USD mark (before discount, so $1.50 per after), with a handful of them at just 99 cents, and some above $4. Authors include the late Olivia Goldsmith, and some old school-looking authors like Sherrill Bodine, Lisa Bingham, Patricia Bray, Joyce Brandon, Anita Mills, Sara Orwig, Elizabeth Thornton, Samantha Harte, Rosanne Bittner, Katherine Kingsley and several others whose introductory 1st-in-series freebies we've gotten for their 80s/90s reprint books which you may want to follow up on if you liked their writing or just recognize their names as someone you wanted to try. Linkage for the lot under the Romance category, auto-sorted by price, if you're interested. Last edited by ATDrake; 01-11-2016 at 04:23 PM. |

Thanks, ATDrake! I found two books to finish a series I was wanting to read. The first was a freebie, so $3 for all three, total, is a steal!

Anyone know the rhyme or reason to Harlequin releasing older titles as ebooks? Was getting rid of some paper copies of books I've picked up in ebook and there's a series where all of them are in ebook form except for #2. The other 4 or 5 in the series are but not that one title.
Do they take requests of titles to put in ebook? Drives me crazy that they've skipped the one title. |

I got a Brooklyn Public Library card today and I'm finding so much that I want to read. Even though my local library has a huge Overdrive collection, Brooklyn fills in a lot of the romance gaps! |

Although there is/was a thread on their community boards for book requests I don't know that it made much difference. It took years of people asking, including the author, to get one of Julie Miller's books out as an eBook in the US (book one in the series, with all other books available ) You can try checking Mills & Boon UK or Harlequin Australia to see if it's out in either of those markets (the Miller book was out in Aus for more than a year before the US got it). |
