FREE BOOKS - ONE DAY ONLY

Today is STUFF YOUR KINDLE day, a one-day event with over 2,200 free romance books! It's the 10th anniversary of STUFF YOUR KINDLE.

My readers expect a happily ever after. Reader-me enjoyed a series of short works many years ago that ended with hooks and formed a complete story as a set, but they were appropriately priced for the page count, and the author rapid-released them (one every week or two?), so I didn't have to wait long for the next.  As a rule, however, I prefer full-length novels with happy or, at least, satisfying endings. I hope 2024 has a happy...
