Nocturne Bites Debuts Today: Get 1 Free Nocturne Bite Today

Harlequin is the leader, in my opinion, in major publisher e-initiatives. They are the first to put out their entire front list in digital format every month. They allow readers to buy series books one month in advance of the book’s in store release dates which means if you went to e-harlequin right now, you could buy June Harlequin Presents. I just visited and there is a new Helen Brooks. Eee! I am so excited.

I know we’ve converted some of you readers into category readers, right?

In any event, in celebration of the release of Nocturne Bites which are ebook only original short stories, Harlequin has given me 5 coupon codes for a free download of Michele Hauf’s Racing the Moon. Another Nocturne Bite is the prequel to Gena Showalter’s new Underworld series (you know the one with the tattoo that keeps roaming around the covers that made me think it was a symptom of Underworld VD?).

Leave a comment and by 11:00 PM CST, I’ll pick five winners and email the codes to you.

    Hey! Thanks for featuring the Nocturne Bites line today and my debut book. If readers aren’t sure about downloading the book (it’s only 89 cents!; how cool is that?) they can read the first chapter at my website. michelehauf.com

    Sounds very interesting. I’d love to check one out as I enjoy short stories. Gena’s prequel I might have to try, since I already bought the first LOTU full length.

    And I had no idea of the advance releases, but I don’t usually pick this line of books up either. Maybe I’ve been missing out…

    Apparently I’m tired, too…Some part of my brain was making ‘CST’ ‘California Standard Time’ not ‘Central’ ;)

    But I do know that it is before 10am no matter where I’m putting the time zone…
