Thanks for the info on the new book, Meemo. Macmillan has been pretty steady with the new books, at least, even if they are in the sucky PDF format.  I haven't done more than glance at a page or two of my converted versions of the John Hart books, they *looked* okay for those first few pages, but I'm sure they won't be perfect; no PDF conversions ever are.  |

Okay. I'll bite. I clicked to get PANIC ATTACK and got re-directed to a page to register before downloading, then got caught in a loop back to the register page. How do you actually download the book?

I don't see where Panic Attack is free. I see the hardcover price. I see something for a free e-galley but I don't know what that is. Is that what I click?

I got mine. Shortly after submitting my information, I checked my email, and I had one. The email says 'click here to get Panic Attack'. You click it and a pdf file opens with the book.

Here's a link to Down River by John Hart. It's in PDF format, but it turns out nicely after conversion. http://hbpub.vo.llnwd.net/o16/video/olmk/smp/downriver.pdf *Edited to add* FYI- I couldn't get the link to work and download properly in Firefox, it kept giving me an error that said the file could not be repaired. But it worked fine when I switched to Internet Explorer. It could just be my computer, but thought I would add that for any Firefox users who might run into the same problem. hi- i'm a new kindle user - if i download hart's book, how do i convert it so i can put it on my kindle? thanks! |

mwvickers, Download the free pdf file to your computer and then e-mail it to your name@free.kindle.com and they will send the converted file to your e-mail address at no charge. From there you can transfer the file to your Kindle document file by USB. luvshihztu This is one way to do it. |

What is an e-galley? Is it the whole book? |

Note that those first 8 or 9 Harlequin romances are also freebies available from Amazon (and have been since February). At a quick glance, several others appear to only be samples and not the entire book (all or some of the Oxford books). Just an FYI... |

HedgeHog, I'm going to split out your post because it's a good discussion point, but not for within this thread! To continue this discussion, go here: http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,7990.0.htmlFuture posts on this topic within the Free Book thread will be moved and combined with HedgeHog's post. Thanks for helping me keep this thread lean and mean! Betsy  |

For those who have missed the free books from J.A. Konrath, you can get them from his site in PDF format and then convert by sending to name@free.kindle.com. I found several that I didn't already have on my Kindle. luvshihtzu www.JAKonrath.com |

Just got this e-mailed to me from jungle-search.com: Call Me (Joker's Wild Series)
by Lena Matthews *NOTE: Spoiler tag added to cover racy description.*Anything can happen when jokers are wild.
When Kayla Martin tries to revolutionize the sex toy industry she calls on the one person she's grown to count on more than anyone else, her best friend and downstairs neighbor, Dylan Thompson.
When Kayla approaches him about being a test subject for her newest invention, an anal toy, Dylan is intrigued and aroused. That is until he finds out that The Walnut Wand is an anal toy for men.
Kayla's sure that a prostate stimulator will be a hit, all she needs is a willing participant. Far from willing, Dylan flat out refuses, but that's not enough to deter Kayla.
After their monthly poker game, Dylan and Kayla decide to make a risky bet. Kayla wants a test subject and Dylan wants the one thing's he's being craving for years. They'll risk it all on one hand, but anything can happen when jokers are wild.
This book has been previously published.Warning, this title contains the following: explicit language, use of sexual aids and graphic sex. |
