Welcome to this week’s hot new releases, 99c deals, and freebies in gay romance! It’s the last one this year, and boy, e’ve had some amazing deals this year, haven’t we? I know my Kindle is heavy, haha.
All deals are valid today, Saturday December 29 in the US and most of the time the UK, but they may not be valid tomorrow or in all Amazon stores. Please check the price before buying!
This is not a paid list or ads, but simply deals I’ve found and books I’m excited about reading, so all personal recommendations from me. If you have a book you’d like to see listed, you can submit it, but that’s not a guarantee I’ll list it.
New Releases
No Angel – Nora Phoenix
Obviously, I’m gonna mention No Angel first, haha. If you haven’t read this latest installment in the No Shame series, you’re missing out on great, sexy fun. Indy and his men celebrate the holidays in true No Shame style…with some sexy shenanigans. And if you haven’t read the sexy, suspenseful No Shame series yet that will give you all the feels, why the hell not? LOL.
Theo’s Game – CS Joyce
Daddy kink between a feisty boy and a sexy, dominant police officer? Sign me up. Plus, I heard great things about Theo’s Game, so I’ll be reading this one this weekend.
Not So Nice – Misha Horne
I don’t like the term guilty pleasure, because it suggests we should feel guilty about reading or liking something, but reading Misha Horne books kinda feels like it, haha. Not so Nice is the much anticipated sequel to Not so Smart, an explosive tale between two messed up characters who insist feelings are not involved. It’s just really dirty sex with spanking and stuff. SO freaking sexy and fun, haha. The first book is free by the way, see the freebies below.
His reluctant cowboy – AD Ellis
A rich California dance instructor inherits a ranch in South Dakota and buts heads with the rugged foreman. Throw some suspense in and you’ve got the mix for a great premise in His Reluctant Cowboy.
Sanguine – R. Phoenix
Sanguine is the seventh and final book in the Fate of the Fallen series, and if you like dark, messed up stuff, this will be a good read for you. It’s brutal at times, but sexy and compelling at the same time.
99c Deals
The 99c deals have been awesome lately, and this week is no exception. Always double check the price before buying, as these deals are often short-lived.
Grabbed – Susi Hawke and Crista Crown
This is a great mpreg series that combines tough alpha guys with sweet romance, mpreg, and a touch of humor. Grabbed is the first book, so it’ll give you a great taste of what this series is like. A senator’s son is kidnapped and ends up falling for the hot alpha who saves him.
Risk Aware – Amelia C. Gormley
Risk Aware is not for the faint of heart, at least when it comes to BDSM. This book contains some heavy scenes, but oh my, it’s so freaking good. A man who suffers from hemophilia dreams of the one thing that could literally kill him: pain. Then he meets a man who wants to give it all to him. I loved this book so hard.
In the Lion’s Den – Abigail Kade
I loved this book, a captivating tale of a lion shifter who gets sent to shifter jail for something he didn’t do…and ends up meeting his mate. In the Lion’s Den introduces a host of secondary characters, and I’m eagerly awaiting the next book in this series.
Memories Follow – SC Wynne
A guy with a trauma he’s still recovering from meets a man who likes to play the field in Memories Follow. When it finally seems they have a shot at a future, the past comes back to haunt them.
Nick, Very Deeply – Spencer Spears
A new release at 99c, Nick, Very Deeply is a long-ass book (135k), which by itself makes me happy, haha. The story also sounds good: two guys who meet, click, and then discover they’re coworkers. Or the other’s boss? Not entirely sure, but there’s plenty of feelings in this one, I can tell. It’s part of a series but can be read as a stand alone.
Under wraps – Louisa Keller
Another new release at 99c, Under Wraps has a lot that appeals to me: an MC with a traumatic past who’s still suffering from chronic pain, a May-December trope, hurt/comfort, a billionaire, first time gay, and to top it off, a little taboo (best friend’s stepbrother). Bring it on.
Private Charter – N.R. Walker
If you’re looking for the perfect sexy, feel-good beach read in the middle of the winter, grab Private Charter. A workaholic who gets dumped by his boyfriends just before a vacation decides to go on the private cruise alone and ends up with the hot captain. So much fun, this book.
Learning to Love – Felice Stevens
Learning to Love is the story of a bad boy who returns home and falls for a rabbi… Felice Stevens is a great storyteller with eye for detail, and I’m sure this one will give me all the feels.
Textual Relations – Cate Ashwood
I loved Textual Relations, a sweet and feel-good romance about two guys who meet through a wrongly sent text message. Cate Ashwood also has All He Ever Needed on sale for 99c, as well as Married for a Month (two guys getting married on a drunken bet!).
One Night at Finn’s – RG Alexander
RG Alexander has a bunch of books on sale for 99c right now. One Night at Finn’s is a super hot May/December tale between an older Marine and a younger guy who is looking for a hook up but needs to be rescued by said Marine. Sparks fly and you can imagine the rest. I loved this book!
Two Weeks and a Day – RG Alexander
Two Weeks and a Day is in the same series as the one above, and equally hot. Here, we have a thirty-year old gay virgin and a best friends romance. Yummy!
The Finn Factor series – RG Alexander
Also on sale is the whole Finn Factor series and boy, that one is good. All nine books are 99c each. There are two MF and one MFM, if I remember correctly, but I loved the whole series. The first book, Curious, is still one of my all time faves.
Manic Pixie Dream Boy – KA Merikan
If you love rockstar romances, try Manic Pixie Dream Boy. A hot rock star hooks up with some delicious man candy, but ends up wanting more. Then there’s a fake relationship and things get far more complicated. First in a series about this band.
Foxes – Suki Fleet
Foxes sounds like a truly special book, and I don’t say that lightly. It’s long, 500 pages, and set in London with a main character who lives off the grid and who ends up falling for a fragile rent boy. There’s also an underlying suspense plot, and the whole thing just sounds amazing.
Double Dutch Courage – Helena Stone
THIS ONE WON’T BE ON SALE TILL SUNDAY DECEMBER 30! A self-discovery romance with all the feels and little angst, Double Dutch Courage is set in Amsterdam. That alone makes it special, but it’s also a feel-good story of two men finally finding themselves…and true love.
Freebies
We’ve got a few awesome freebies this week, so click fast…but after double-checking the price!
Not So Smart – Misha Horne
Not So Smart is ten kinds of messed up, but in the most delicious way. Two guys meet, a virgin looking for rough sex and a hot guy willing to provide just that. Except neither of them can let the other go after what was supposed to be a one-time thing. God, I loved this book. The sequel was just released (see new releases).
Rustic Melody – Nic Starr
Rustic Melody was a lovely slow-burn that left me feeling happy after finishing it. It’s the story of two men meeting for what is supposed to be a one-time thing at a music festival, but then develop much deeper feelings. I loved the Australian setting as well.
Strain – Amelia C Gormley
Strain has been siting on my Kindle for a while, but I haven’t gotten around to it, I heard great things about this sci fi MM romance. It’s part of a series, and it’s the second book, but don’t let that stop you from grabbing it. I seem to remember the series originally started with this one and then later a prequel was added, but check it out.
Bummer most of them are full prize for.me 🙁
Ugh, that sucks. Amazon has gotten strict about only showing discounted prices to US or Uk residents, unfortunately. Even if you liev elsewhere but have a US account, the discounts won’t be there. It sucks.
My week is always brighter when I get your newsletter!!!! Thanks for taking the time!
You’re welcome!
Nora it’s amazing to me that you take the time to do this for us. I am sure, that like me all your fans appreciate it so very much. You rock!

Curious is my fave of the series as well. Loved it!!❤
Foxes is AMAZING! It’s an absolutely beautiful book and everyone should read it. Thank you for the list!! So many deals this week.
I totally got that vibe from just the blurb. I bought this instantly, since it sounded like something I would love. And yes, the haul was amazing this week!
Nora,
I had found a couple of the books on my own, but you showed me some I never would have noticed. $10.00 poorer, but my Kindle is smiling 😃.
