Bait by M. Mabie (usually $3.99, now 99 cents)
He was trouble from the start, but I couldn't resist.
[She was the best kind of trouble. The kind that was so wrong, it felt right.]
I've tried and failed to stay away from him.
[I've done everything in my power to make her mine and keep her.]
He's almost impossible to say no to.
[She never tells me yes.]
We're always fighting.
[When we're not fighting, we're… well… making up.]
He makes me laugh so hard.
[I miss her laugh the most.]
I'm a liar.
[She knows the truth, but won't admit it.]
Sometimes, I wish I'd never met him.
[I wish we could meet all over again. I'd do better.]
His girlfriend knows.
[The guy she's with is a fool.]
I'll never love anyone like I love him.
[She doesn't love me enough to choose us.]
It was the wrong place.
[It was the wrong time.]
It should have been him.
[It will always be her.]
Game for Marriage by Karen Erickson (usually $3.79, now free)
He's going in deep to make her his…
Struggling artist Sheridan Harper never imagined she'd spend a sizzling night with Jared Quinn, the smoking-hot star quarterback of her local professional football team, the San Jose Hawks. And she's even more shocked when Jared's publicist offers her a proposition: a fake marriage to keep Jared out of the gossip mags. Being that close to Jared would be too tempting, so to protect her heart, she insists on secretly including a clause forbidding sex between them. Jared just wants to keep his starting QB job and keep it in San Jose. His reputation as a ladies' man has landed him in the headlines one too many times, but there's something about his kind, passionate new wife that tempts him beyond reason. Any sort of intimacy between them is completely forbidden, but as their bodies fall in deep, will their hearts follow suit?
Pride Mates by Jennifer Ashley (usually $.799, now $1.99)

Shattered Secrets by Karen Harper (usually $7.99, now $1.99)
Returning to Cold Creek, Ohio, is an act of courage for Tess Lockwood. Abducted and held captive as a young girl, she is unable to remember anything about the crime that destroyed her childhood and tore her family apart. Now a grown woman with a bright future, she is certain she has put the past behind her. But when she inherits the family home, Tess must confront the demons that still haunt her and the town of Cold Creek.
Gabe McCord has always blamed himself for what happened to Tess. He had been a teenager when she was snatched from the group of children he was responsible for watching. Now Gabe has taken on the role of sheriff and hopes to shed new light on the cold case, especially given his growing feelings for Tess.
Tess isn't ready to recall what happened to her, and she has no intention of digging up any details that might remind her of the truth. But when another child in the town goes missing, she's certain it's related to her return to Cold Creek. Together, Tess and Gabe will have to work to unlock their painful memories in order to save another child and heal their damaged souls, for good…
Mail-Order Brides of the West: Trudy by Debra Holland (usually $3.99, now 99 cents)
The well-educated daughter of a lawyer, Trudy Bauer arrives at the St. Louis based Mail-Order Brides of the West agency full of excitement for an adventure of a lifetime. She befriends the agency's maid, Evie Davenport, and the two form a strong and lasting friendship. They vow to stay in contact through letters when Evie takes hold of her destiny and arranges a marriage on the sly. Each brave young woman is ready to face whatever an unknown groom and life in Montana can throw her way.
In Holland's book, bride-to-be Trudy Bauer rides the train to Sweetwater Springs, in a Montana Sky Novel. In Fyffe's Novel, house servant Evie Davenport travels by stagecoach to Y Knot, Montana in a McCutcheon Family Novel. Through their correspondence, the friends keep each other abreast of their hardships, trials and tribulations—some of heartbreak, some of love.
Rules of Harte by Brooke Harris (usually $2.99, now free)
Eva doesn't want him, but she needs him. Julian doesn't need anyone, but he wants her.
Evangeline Andrews is sassy and feisty, or at least she was — before; before she left New Jersey. She's a different person in Dublin, and she's trying hard to be normal here. But the office bitch, her nymphomaniac best friend, and the nice-guy-she's-just-not-sure-about all threaten to complicate things. The social event of the year is looming. Everyone who's anyone in the office will be at the masquerade ball. And Eva is invited, well instructed, to attend by her mysterious boss — or else! But she can't go alone.
Julian Harte is a rich, powerful, Irish alpha with a fascination for games. He's used to getting what he wants, at all costs. When Julian offers his services as an escort, Eva is about to learn the game is complicated and he doesn't do losing. Will Eva's thick skin be enough to protect her when all the masks come down, or is she about to learn she's not the only one wearing more than one mask?
Let the games begin...
