Does anyone know the rest of the titles to check and see if they are available at Amazon now - I have never downloaded from another site.

A book, I think, is very like a little golden door.
That takes me into places where I've never been before.
It leads me into fairyland or countries strange and far.
And, best of all, the golden door always stands ajar. - Adelaide Love

Baby Bonanza and Speed Dating are free too. They were part of the 15 or so on the site.

Thanks Melissa - I just checked the whole list from Harlequin. The 3 I listed before and the 2 you found are the only ones listed as free right now. The remaining books all have either two listings - one already available for a price, or they say available Feb 01, 2009 which makes me think they will be free in the next couple of days. The rest of the titles to keep checking on are:
The Bride's Baby
Crime Scene
Hide in Plain Sight
Stranded With A Spy
Kiss Me Deadly
His Lady Mistress
Price of Passion
Irresistible Forces
Dancing In The Moonlight
A Very Special Delivery
I usually only read Harlequin Historicals, but free is free!

There is a free version of this book in all of those public domain books that they put up in the Kindle store. I'm sure you can find it with a search. I'm just a few chapters into it an I love it. If you want to read another heartwarming story about a dog, give it a shot. It's written very well from the dog's point of view.  |

It looks like if you put -domain (that's minus domain) into the search field and then sort by low to high price you can find the non public domain books that are free on Amazon without having to sort through them all. I know the Jungle search site has a "featured item" option that will bring up some of them, but not all.
Thanks so much. I was trying to figure out how to wade through all of those public domain books that Amazon added this weekend. I was getting very frustrated because the page function won't let you go past page 400 but even at page 400, it was still all public domain books. |

Mom of 4. I was nervous about venturing off of Amazon to download as well. I finally went to manybooks.net. They have a huge number of classics and there is an option to save in kindle version. It downloads it straight to my computer in a file i created, and then i simply moved them over to my kindle. i have probably downloaded 30 or more books that way. Very easy. And free.

Hi folks, I apologize if this was already posted … but … it appears to me that some of the free H. books you are looking for are available on amazon for free. I’ve attached the links below, where possible (I had to use the old link maker for most of these for some reason ?) I also found it odd that depending on how you search - or which link-maker you use - the books come up as either free or not free. I did my best to link below the FREE versions. IHTH.   Once a Cowboy by Linda Warren $FREE **************************   Homespun Bride by Jillian Hart $FREE ****************************  Stranded with a Spy Author: Merline Lovelace Price: $0.00 ********************************  Slow Hands$FREE **********************************   Baby Bonanza$FREE *********************************  Speed Dating Author: Nancy Warren Price: $0.00 ********************************* Whew!! That took me a lot of time (altho I do be a bit slo at times  ). I sure hope it is of some help to someone out there. (And, again, I apologize if I’ve just accidentally duplicated someone else’s work. Also! PLEASE make sure the price says $0.00 before you one-click, as I may have accidentally linked to the pay-for-it version. (There are 2 versions of most of these books and only one version is $FREE.) |

Free Young Adult Fiction by author J.M Reep. I know many people here like that genre, and these two books don't sound bad at all. The SpringThe Spring is the story of eight friends approaching the end of their senior year of high school. Preparing for graduation should be an exciting time, but as they look forward to college, fall in and out of love, and just try to endure their last days of high school, they discover the old bonds of friendship that held them together are falling apart. Can their friendships survive their dreams and hopes for the future? It's a little bit angsty, a little bit funny, a little bit philosophical, and a little bit romantic. LeahIntroverted and shy, 14-year-old Leah Nells has lived her life alone, with only books to keep her company. As she starts 9th grade, she finds herself lost within the complicated social universe of high school — especially when she falls in love with a boy from her class. Under pressure from her parents, her classmates, and the whole noisy world, can she become the girl she wants to be? http://www.jmreep.com/index.php?pr=Free_eBook_Downloads_Available in a variety of formats, including Kindle-compatible Mobipocket PRC. |

More freebies...  The others I don't know how to make links for. They don't seem to be available on Amazon. So I'll just quote from the blog where I got the information: http://kindlereader.blogspot.com/2009/02/kindle-e-books-on-cheap-weekly.html
A Man for the Ages, by Irving Bacheller, 1859-1950. HISTORICAL FICTION. Download site: MobileRead. Format: Mobipocket. Price: Free. Also available in the Amazon Kindle Book Store. A fictional account of the life of Abraham Lincoln. Bacheller, who considered Abraham Lincoln to be the greatest man America had produced, wrote a trilogy based on his life: A Man for the Ages (1919), which took Lincoln up to his election to Congress; Father Abraham (1925), about Lincoln's last years; and A Boy for the Ages (1937), about Lincoln's boyhood. Born in Pierrepont, New York, Irving Bacheller graduated from St. Lawrence University in 1882 after which he accepted a job with a New York City newspaper. Two years later, he established a business to provide specialized articles to the major Sunday newspapers. It was through the Bacheller Syndicate that he brought to American readers the writings of British authors such as Joseph Conrad, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Rudyard Kipling. And, to the reading public he introduced New Jersey author Stephen Crane through arranging the serialization of his story, The Red Badge of Courage. How to Disappear Completely, by David Bowick. FICTION. Download site: Feedbooks. Format: Mobipocket/Kindle. Price: Free. "Sitting at the top of a Ferris wheel overlooking the Boston skyline, Josh’s life takes an unexpected turn, and things will never be the same. Along with the many surprises on his life’s new path, he’ll come to take life advice from a family of ducks, get in a bloody war with a dog, lose his job over a spilled drink, wake up in the hospital, apply to work at an adult-themed novelty bakery, and find out that people often aren’t what they seem. When you're at the top of the world, there's nowhere to go but down." - Feedbooks. The Patriot Witch, by C. C. Finlay). First volume in the Traitor to the Crown series. The paper edition of this novel will be released on April 28 and available at Amazon. FANTASY. Download site: Author's web site. Format: PDF. Price: Free "The year is 1775. On the surface, Proctor Brown appears to be an ordinary young man working the family farm in New England. He is a minuteman, a member of the local militia, determined to defend the rights of the colonies. Yet Proctor is so much more. Magic is in his blood, a dark secret passed down from generation to generation. But Proctor’s mother has taught him to hide his talents, lest he be labeled a witch and find himself dangling at the end of a rope. A chance encounter with an arrogant British officer bearing magic of his own catapults Proctor out of his comfortable existence and into the adventure of a lifetime, as resistance sparks rebellion and rebellion becomes revolution. Now, even as he fights alongside his fellow patriots from Lexington to Bunker Hill, Proctor finds himself enmeshed in a war of a different sort—a secret war of magic against magic, witch against witch, with the stakes not only the independence of a young nation but the future of humanity itself." - C. C. Finlay web site. Sharyn |
