Freebie: in the 'Heir and a Spare' series: book 2/4: Lady Charlotte's Marquess
102 reviews: 58% 5-stars & 30% 4-stars
OK... there is confusion in the title and the cover. Amazon has 'Lady Charlotte's Ruined Marquess' and GR doesn't. Although the GR selection does say it is updated and a new edition. The book is still a free offer. If you click on the Kindle free link it does take you to the new cover and name. Whew!!

I just finished a longish 486 pg. book by Laura Kinsale 'The Shadow and The Star.' Unabashed LK fan here. I'd been wanting to read this for a couple years or more based on a recommendation. I haven't read any of her works I wouldn't give 5 stars to, and many I wish I could give far more. I'm now in serious book withdrawal. I don't know where to start. I'm not asking for help here for that, I could just throw a dart at my TBR, blindfolded, and come up with something great, I'm sure. I just wanted to share. The Shadow and the Star

Audible for $1.99 on this also. I bought the Kindle with my "no rush" credits and purchased the audio book. So it ended up being $2.27 with audio. Wonderful!!! :-) I am a fan of Elizabeth Johns and Heather B. Moore. I haven't tried the third author yet.
