Of the authors I&#8217;ve read, I can 100% recommend to you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lindsay Buroker&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1PxBfB8\">Balanced on the Blade&#8217;s Edge<\/a> &#8212; I might have recommended this book here before. If not, let me just say this is a standalone romance that also begins a series of interconnected semi-standalones. The world-building is unique and intriguing, the characters are top notch, and I still remember the plot approximately 20 books later. (That last point is a ringing endorsement given my memory and speed reading habits&#8230;.)<\/li>\n<li>Ruby Lionsdrake&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1VOmmBW\">Mercenary Instinct<\/a> &#8212; Pure swashbuckling space opera fun. Also a standalone romance despite being the first book in a series. (The whole series is delicious too.)<\/li>\n<li>C.J. Archer&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1SdTWMa\">The Medium<\/a> &#8212; This book is such a delightful combination of the Victorian era, ghosts, and a light romance. Warning: cliffhanger ending, but didn&#8217;t make me want to throw the book across the room.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1pQ2qCS\">Seven Against the Dark<\/a> &#8212; This seven-book box set is extremely high quality (although the second book has a maddening cliffhanger &#8212; maybe skip that one).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And those are just the offerings where I&#8217;ve read the specific book in question &#8212; several other of the included authors have wowed me with different titles in the past. With nearly 100 free books to choose from, it would be hard to go wrong&#8230;unless you dilly dally and miss the two-day event.
