Beauty's Kingdom by Anne Rice (usually $13.99, now $2.99)

Before E.L. James and Sylvia Day, there was Anne Rice: Discover Beauty's Kingdom, the fourth novel in the bestselling Sleeping Beauty series.

Mega-bestselling author Anne Rice, writing as A.N. Roquelaure, returns to the mysterious kingdom of Queen Eleanor in this new chapter of her Sleeping Beauty series. When the great queen is reported dead, Beauty and Laurent return to the kingdom they left twenty years before. Beauty agrees to take the throne, but she insists that all erotic servitude be voluntary. Countless eager princes, princesses, lords, ladies, and commoners journey to Beauty's realm, where she and her husband usher in a new era of desire, longing, and ecstasy. Provocative and stirring, Rice's imaginative retelling of the Sleeping Beauty myth will be adored by her longtime fans and new readers of erotica just discovering the novels.

Forever in Love by Leeanna Morgan (usually $2.99, now free)

Find happy-ever-after with Forever in Love, the second book in Leeanna Morgan's Montana Brides series. A Baby. A man. And a secret. Amy Sullivan's life might have been lonely but it was safe, until she found a baby on her doorstep. With her alcoholic mother gone, and a five-month-old sister to look after, Amy has no choice but to give her sister what she never had — a family — and that means moving back to Montana and the only man she's ever loved. Nathan Gray's life has turned upside down and the last person he wants to see is Amy Sullivan. Nine years earlier she left him faster than a howling nor'wester and now, burned and broken after a barn fire, he has even more reason to keep his distance. Only this time fate and a meddling family have other ideas and their lives are about to come crashing down. Right on top of each other.

The Hurricane by R.J. Prescott.

The Hurricane by R.J. Prescott (usually $3.99, now 99 cents)

Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and dangerous past. A gifted mathematician, she is little more than a hollow, broken shell, trying desperately to make ends meet long enough to finish her degree.

Through an unlikely friendship with the aging, cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man that she has ever met.

Cormac "the Hurricane" O'Connell is cut, tattooed and dangerous. He is a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the mis-fire. He's never been knocked out before, but when he meet Em he falls, HARD. Unlike any other girl he's ever met, she doesn't want anything from him. Just being around her makes him want to be a better person.

They are polar opposites who were never meant to find each other, but some things are just worth the fight.

The Dragon's Mate by Jane Rowe (usually $3.99, now 99 cents)

Read one too many vampire romances? Like your paranormal shifters a little more epic? Well this dragon shifter romance is the book for you!

Humans are on the brink of extinction. A virus has spread, all but ensuring humans can't have male babies. Not feeling to lie down and accept the end of their race, some put together a breeding program in the hope of turning things around.

Human female Elise Knight has been raised as part of this special breeding program, and slated to marry one of several human males who have been supplemented for years. The hope is they would be able to produce a male child.

Signs are promising, however as her twenty-fifth birthday approaches, the program is abruptly shut down.

The program is all she knew, but as they say, every cloud has a silver lining. Now Elise finds herself available just in time to be selected as a mate by the sexy dragon shifter Galagus. One of a small group of dragon shifters, perhaps the most powerful creatures in the land. And he wants her!

With the dragons themselves suffering a shortage of females, maybe the two can come in a mutually beneficial agreement...

Shattered Valor by Elaine Levine.

Shattered Valor by Elaine Levine (usually $4.99, now 99 cents)

Every step leads her deeper into danger...

Eden Miller has her life arranged exactly as she wants it — until a reunion with her high school BFFs places her in the middle of a turf war with a ruthless prison gang, their terrorist allies, and the hunters tracking them. Her every move draws her deeper into the danger surrounding Ty Bladen and his team of terror fighters, but his seductive charm and engaging smile make her believe his promises of protection.

A secret is a dangerous thing...

When the terrorists Ty Bladen is tracking infiltrate his remote ranch in Wyoming, he learns the past he buried cannot be so easily escaped. Though he's recovering from a bullet wound he received in Afghanistan and is hunted by an unseen enemy, he knows he can't leave Eden alone to face the danger swirling around her, danger he and his team have brought to her — even if he has to risk letting her near his frozen heart. But when she learns his terrible secret, will she stay or will she run?

Two Week Seduction by Kathy Lyons (usually $2.99, now 99 cents)

She's going to break all of his rules…

Tech Sergeant John O'Donnell was never fond of his hometown. Too many reminders of poverty, his rocky family life, and the girl he was never allowed to have. Now he has exactly two weeks to sort out his mother's finances before he heads back overseas. Two weeks that he's determined to spend as far from his best friend's little sister as possible.

Alea Heling has a naughty streak a mile wide. Sweet and simple? Boring. She's been craving a bad boy like John since their wild days together in high school, and this time, she's not taking no for an answer. But with every panty-meltingly hot encounter, Alea forgets one hard, cold reality — this soldier won't let a fortnight turn into forever... and forever might be exactly what they both need.
