Did you think the time for summer beach reading would end at the end of August? Well, with today’s latest addition to our Free Book Alerts listings, we’ve got a free pre-order to prove you wrong ….
A pure, escapist romance written with an artist’s view of the world by the owner of one of the truly spot-on literary names of all time! (Or, if you are downloading from the UK Kindle store, you can pick it up here for just £1.51.) Tom Laurence knows that he has it all. A successful lawyer, he is set to marry his childhood sweetheart and come into his inheritance. Feeling increasingly as if some important element is missing from his life, he returns to his old passion, painting, in the hope that he will feel more fulfilled. Instead, new conflicts arise when he encounters the beautiful but elusive model Elizabeth in the months before his wedding, and he finds himself torn between duty and desire.
Elizabeth has abandoned her own art studies to marry. Events in her past have left her traumatised, but not for the reasons that one may assume. Carrying a sense of guilt and struggling to bring up her son, Elizabeth has dismissed the idea of ever having another relationship.
Although neither can ignore their growing attraction, Elizabeth realises that a relationship between them could tear Tom’s life apart and hurt those closest to him.
Could an unexpected turn of events offer the possibility of a happy ending?

The Postcard Killers (Special Free Preview: Book One) by James Patterson and Liza Marklund
(About 87 pages in print)
(That’s the good news. The bad news is that Patterson and his agency model publisher, Hachette, have priced pre-orders for the ebook’s August 16 release at the exorbitant and unsustainable price of $14.99.)
Paris is stunning in the summerNYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on a tour of Europe’s most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren’t what draw him–he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each c
afe through the eyes of his daughter’s killer.
The killing is simply marvelous
Kanon’s daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have been found dead. Little connects the murders, other than a postcard to the local newspaper that precedes each new victim.
Wish you were here
Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Dessie Larsson, who has just received a postcard in Stockholm–and they think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless logic and unstoppable action, The Postcard Killers may be James Patterson’s most vivid and compelling thriller yet.
