Two more of the free Harlequins are now available directly from Amazon:
A Very Special Delivery - Linda Goodnight
His Lady Mistress - Elizabeth Rolls
The entire list of 16 is now available (listed here previously and on my blog, so I won't repeat the list). |

Free for this month only Dourado by David Wood http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/678It shows a price of 1.99 but if you add it to your cart and check out just enter the coupon code LJ95G youll get it for free and wont have to enter any credit card info. Here's the description: A sunken treasure. An ancient Biblical artifact. A mystery as old as humankind. On January 25, 1829, the Portuguese brig Dourado sank off the coast of Indonesia, losing its cargo of priceless treasures from the Holy Land. One of these lost relics holds the key to an ancient mystery. But someone does not want this treasure to come to light. When her father is mysteriously murdered while searching for the Dourado, Kaylin Maxwell hires treasure hunter and former Navy Seal Dane Maddock and his partner Uriah “Bones” Bonebrake, to locate the Dourado, and recover a lost Biblical artifact, the truth behind which could shake the foundations of the church, and call into question the fundamentally held truths of human existence. Join Dane and Bones on a perilous adventure that carries them from the depths of the Pacific to ancient cities of stone as they unravel the mystery of the Dourado. A fast-paced adventure with action to spare. Dane Maddock is a hero cut from the Dirk Pitt mold, and “Bones” Bonebrake is the best sidekick around. If you like your thrillers with a touch mystery and Biblical archaeology, Dourado is the book for you. – Megalith Book Reviews |

Thanks Lizzy! This sounds like just the kind of story I like. It is available on Amazon, so I have downloaded the sample to check it out. I seem to have a hard time downloading books from outside sources (apparently just haven't learned the proper procedures yet), but will try again if I like the sample.

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

I need some reviews for my fantasy novel. If anyone is interested in writing one, contact me at d@davidjguyton.com and I will arrange to get you a FREE Kindle copy of Mighty Hammer Down. I can't afford to offer a million of these though so act fast. It's $.99 but I will PayPal you your dollar back to you. Click the picture of my book below and read the synopsis first though....I would like to have reviews by people who are into these sorts of books. Thanks! David |

Thank you Mark for posting here. I'd never heard of your site but I've bookmarked it and am looking forward to going through the books there. I'm all for supporting independent authors and DRM free formats. |

Your welcome! Here's another free book that looks like it might be good Surviving The Fog by Stan Morris http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/712Have you ever been to camp? What would you do if the adults left “for a few hours” and they had not returned a week later? What if your parents never showed up to take you home? What would you do if you realized that the area below was surrounded by a mysterious brown fog that was dangerous? How would you survive the winter? What would you eat? Warning-sexual situations, cursing, violence |
