16 FREE Kindle Books Special Ends Today!

Don’t forget that today is the last day for something I am also promoting on the Free Kindle Books and Tips blog: a group of authors I’ve corresponded with over the past few years – as well as read several of their books – have banded together through the end of the day todayth to either (a) offer their books for free, or, (b) discount their books to just 99 cents each. Speaking of free, 16 of these titles are free, with the remainder just 99 cents each.

In terms of customer reviews these are all highly-rated books, and if you count the number of books being offered in boxed sets my back of the envelope calculation says you are getting to peruse over 70 books. There should be something for everyone – children, young adults, adults – in a variety of genres. There’s even a few my teenage daughter has read and enjoyed (and started buying the rest of Cidney Swanson’s series as an example)!

While being held prisoner by the handsome Lord Dylan Axton, she learns that the outside world is rife with war and controlled by people with extraordinary powers. It becomes clear that there was a very good reason the founders of Haven locked their people away from the rest of the world.

Wicked Hungry

Wicked Hungry by Teddy Jacobs is 99 cents today in the Amazon Kindle store, and has received an average user rating of 4 out of 5 stars based on 8 customer reviews.

Category: Young Adult / Fantasy

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Stanley Hoff has it hard. His overprotective mom thinks she’s a witch who can see people’s auras; Stanley himself is getting hairier by the minute, his teeth ache, and the moon above him makes him want to howl and growl.

But things are not going to get any easier.

After a confrontation with a high school bully brings unwanted fame, Stanley’s childhood crush Meredith invites him to her Halloween party. Which would be more than fine, except his friend Karen has broken up with her boyfriend and wants to be more than friends. But when Karen turns allergic to sunlight, Stanley has to ask himself, is Karen interested in Stanley as a boyfriend, or as… food?

And Stanley himself? He’s WICKED HUNGRY. And not for anything he can eat in his vegetarian home.

As a growing supernatural threat menaces his suburban New England community, as more and more of his friends turn into shifters, as the stakes get higher and higher, Stanley must decide who to love, and, even, as much as it’s going to hurt… who will survive.

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Getting married at 19 years old would be enough to make anyone nervous, but Beck Eisley isn’t the kind of guy who backs down from a challenge. His bride Sydney is beautiful, adventurous, and comes from a powerful family that paid to have the ceremony on a luxurious cruise ship. So what could possibly go wrong?

While Beck executes his plans to make it a wedding no one will ever forget, he finds out Sydney’s family may have some skeletons in their closet that will make his wedding day more of a challenge than even he thought he could handle. If their history wasn’t enough to disturb Beck, some scheming from the father of the bride certainly would be, and before long his ship is headed straight for stormy seas. When he finds out he may not make it to land alive, it gives an entirely different meaning to the term “cold feet.”
