Free Books, Cheap Books, and Some Upcoming Events!

First, exactly three months from today, You, Me, & the Conspiracy will be out in the world in print, ebook, and audio. If you haven’t preordered it yet, I would LOVE it if you did. The preorder bonus is coming, but you’ll be able to register for it (a Christmas-themed epilogue) later on. As I’m sure you’ve heard from every author, preorder numbers really matter to publishers. And we all say it because it’s true. ; )

Second, it’s Stuff Your Kindle day! Just visit RomanceBookworms.com, and take a gander of what’s on offer. I’ve made The One You Hate–the third book in my Political Persuasions series–free for the next few days. So if you’ve never read that one, you can grab it at the ideal price: nothing.

I did a quick skim through the site, and some participating authors I’ve enjoyed include Jackie Lau, Adriana Anders, Zoe York, Zara Keane, Nicola Davidson, Aydra Richards, Kate Pearce, Toni Anderson, Kate Meader, Reese Ryan, and Edie Cay. If I’ve missed any hidden gems, please let me know.

Odds and Ends

Firstly, Funny Guy—my friends-to-lovers romance featuring a chaos Muppet comedian realizing that he’s in love with his order Muppet BFF—is on sale for the month of July in North America only (sorry about that!). For just $1.99, this somewhat polarizing book can be yours. You can grab it at Amazon, and I hope you will.

Secondly, I have two items up for grabs in the Romancing the Vote auction, which opened TODAY and closes on July 5. Option A: you can bid on a signed ARC of Bad Reputation, and I’ll throw in a friendship bracelet that matches the cover. Or if you would prefer, Option B is a Backyard Chicken starter pack, which includes two guides on keeping chickens, plus a signed copy of Chick Magnet, and a 30-minute Zoom call with me. We can talk about chickens if you have them/are thinking about getting them, or we can talk books: seriously, ask me anything!

The Cover You’ve Been Waiting For…

I’ll get right down to it: I’m so excited to be able to share the cover for Bad Reputation with you! Designed by the incredible Caroline Teagle Johnson, it absolutely captures the vibe of the book. Plus it’s objectively lovely.

If you need to hear the pitch again, Bad Reputation is a workplace, friends-to-lovers romance about two people with bad reputations who just might be able to change their lives–if they can only resist falling for each other. I absolutely adore this book, and I hope you will too.

You can preorder Bad Reputation at Amazon and add it to your Goodreads shelves now. And if you happen to be a reviewer, I do have an ARC request form here. I don’t have my ARCs yet, but I love to plan ahead.

And while I have your attention: Funny Guy is on sale this month in North America. The ebook can be yours for just $1.99 at Amazon, and the paperback is currently discounted too if you need a copy of Sam and Bree’s pining-filled, late night comedy romance for your shelves.

Odds and Ends

How would you like 2000+ FREE books? Yes, it’s that time again: Stuff Your eReader Day! Just visit RomanceBookworms.com and browse the amazing selection of books on offer. I skimmed the list, and I would particularly recommend that you check out Zara Keane, Carrie Lomax, Nicola Davidson, Asa Maria Bradley, Rachel Grant, Lucy Eden, Brighton Walsh, K.M. Jackson, Annika Martin, J.A. Rock, Ainsley Booth and Sadie Haller, Eve Pendle, Carrie Ann Ryan, Renee Dahlia, Kat Latham, Kate Meader, and Zoe York. And of course me.

If you haven’t read it, The One You Want, the first book in my contemporary political romance series, can be yours for zero pennies. It features a shy union lobbyist finding her voice while battling a pragmatic Senate staffer and falling for him in the process. If you’ve ever thought, “I want to read a romance that’s like The West Wing but with more steam,” then friends, this might be the one that you, ahem, want.

And two more podcasts that I recorded in the last year dropped and are available for your listening pleasure. I joined Elle Greco on Steam Scenes to talk about Chick Magnet. Elle and I both work in higher education, and so we ended up having a long conversation about the weaponization of taste in the academy, before she reads and we dissect a steamy moment with Will and Nic.

And I also went on Turn Me On (Spotify and Apple) to talk about Funny Guy. This is a fascinating convo because the hosts aren’t necessarily romance readers, so we talked about the goals of romance and romance in popular media.

Get This Stand Up Guy On Sale

Funny Guy is on sale for the month of September! Until 9/30, you can get Bree and Sam’s story for just $1.99 in the United States, $1.99 in Canada, $1.49 in Australia, and £0.99 in the UK. This is the first time it has been discounted in North America, so if you’ve been waiting to buy it–or to recommend it to a friend–now is the time. Funny Guy takes place In New York City in the autumn and it has lots of cozy vibes, so it’s also an excellent seasonal choice.

I also highly recommend the amazing audiobook, read by Teddy Hamilton and Lucy Rivers. It’s aces.

It’s This Stand Up Guy’s Time to Fall

We have a number of iconic pairings in romance. Grumpy-sunshine, innocent-experienced, and morally good-morally evil, to name a few. A decade ago, the legal scholar Dahlia Lithwick added another one to the mix: Chaos Muppet-Order Muppet. Essentially the idea is that all Muppets are either forces for entropy or forces for organization and structure. Animal and the Swedish Chef? They’re Chaos Muppets. Sam the Eagle and Bert? Order Muppets. And these opposites tend to attract. Think about Miss Piggy and Kermit.

Up until now, my characters have mostly been Order Muppets. When I have written the occasional Chaos Muppets (Vivy in Free Fall comes to mind), they’ve been minimally chaotic. But Sam in Funny Guy is not minimal chaos. Sam is the full tornado.

This Chick Is Cheap

Chick Magnet–my grumpy-sunshine, small town, veterinarian and backyard chicken influencer romance–is on sale for the first time EVER. For the entire month of May, Chick Magnet can be yours for just $1.99. You can add the audio (read by the incredible CJ Bloom and Aaron Shedlock) for only $1.99, which I highly recommend doing. And the paperback is less than $10 at the moment. So pop over to the ‘zon and grab it!

This is the kind of news that I share with my mailing list. In today’s missive, I also discuss the backstory for Funny Guy, which will be out in two weeks. You can sign up for my mailing list here if you’re so inclined.

Stuff Your E-Reader

It’s that time again: stuff your e-reader day! Just go to RomanceBookworms.Com, and you’ll find links to more than a thousand free books, organized by subgenre. This time, I decided to include The One You Need, a friends to lovers romance in which an every guy blogger helps a socialite non-profit fundraiser clear her name in a money-laundering scandal, and they fall for each other in the process. If you’ve been looking for romances that feature gentle male main characters with dad bods, this may be the book you’ve been searching for. It’s one of my favorites, and it’s never been free before. So click fast!

I quickly skimmed through the list, and I would especially recommend checking out the titles by Jeannie Lin, Carrie Lomax, Jackie Lau, Chace Verity, Zoe York, Lucy Eden, and Genevieve Turner.
