Lenoreo’s Haul

(All Ebooks unless otherwise specified)

NetGalley ARC Requests Approved:

• Just Pretending (The Chicago Falcons #3) by Leah and Kate Rooper from Entangled: Crush (Entangled Publishing LLC) — releases November 5th, 2018.  Tyler!!!
• Rabi and Matthew by L.A. Witt from Riptide Publishing — releases November 5th, 2018.  I’m probably going to save this one to read in December for that month’s theme of “Religious Minorities” in my Platypire Diversity Challenge.
• My Favorite Half-Night Stand by Christina Lauren from Gallery Books (Simon & Schuster Canada) — releases December 4th, 2018.  I can’t believe I got this one!  So excited!

ARCs From Authors/PR Companies:

• Royally Yours (Royally #4) by Emma Chase from InkSlinger PR — releases October 30th, 2018.  I’m reading this one right now and thoroughly enjoying it so far!  It’s weird reading almost my name.
• Across the Street (Romance For All Seasons #2) by Sandra Marie — releases November 1st, 2018.  The most recent teaser for this one is killing me…I gotta wait until after my spooky readathon though.
• Hockey Holidays (A Hockey Romance Holiday Anthology) by Various Authors from L. Woods PR — releases November 13th, 2018.  Hockey *and* Holidays?  Sign me up!  Also, this one is just 99 cents on preorder, and proceeds go to charity!

New Releases:

• The Day I Stopped Falling for Jerks (Jerk #1) by Max Monroe — released October 18th, 2018.  I DESPERATELY wanted to sign up for ARCs for this one, but I was a responsible person and actually understood my lack of time management skills and refrained.  It killed me.  But yay!  The book is on a release week sale of $2.99, so I one-clicked.  Still on sale!

Audible Romance Package:

• Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout, narrated by Justine Eyre — OK, so right about now I’m supposed to be reading my NetGalley ARC of The Darkest Star, which is a spin-off from this series.  And other reviewers said I wouldn’t be lost, but that it would ruin the original Lux series plot.  And I have quite a few friends who really enjoyed it (Curly Carla included).  But then I spotted THE WHOLE SERIES available with the Audible Romance Package, so I figured I’d see if I’m interested.  I just started listening.  I might end up being late on The Darkest Star as a result, but what else is new.  *sigh*

Got It On Sale:

• Soulmated (Joining of Souls #1) by Shaila Patel — I cannot for the life of me remember how this one came to my attention, but having more diverse books is always good, so I had it wishlisted.  So when I got an eReaderIQ alert that it was on sale for 99 cents from its usual $4.60, I snagged it!  Still on sale!
• Most Valuable Playboy (Most Valuable Playboy #1) by Lauren Blakely — Welp, I still haven’t read a single book by Ms. Blakely, but I seem to be collecting them as they are recommended by bloggers I follow.  So when I got an eReaderIQ alert that it was on sale for 99 cents from its usual $3.99, I one-clicked!  Might still be on sale…
• Something So Irresistible (Something So #3) by Natasha Madison — I noticed this one on BookBub, on sale for 99 cents from its usual $3.99, and since I’d gotten the first book in this series as recommended by Deanna @ A Novel Glimpse, I figured I could get this one too just in case.  Still on sale!
