This is a lovely series full of excitement and emotion and romance. I have enjoyed each part of it. Kennedy is your typical macho hero and he did irritate me a bit I have to admit. It's really hard for females in professions that have always been thought of as only for men. I am not sure when, or if that will ever change.

Loved this book!
October 25, 2022

I highly recommend this book. It is a vampire romance set in 1970. The author takes us into a Celtic mythological history of how vampires came into existence by interweaving it with friends to lovers, a vampire brotherhood, murder, plot twists, characters you will love and plenty of spice with a little humour along the way. I loved Leigh and Michael's story. I can't wait for the next book.
I received and advanced reader copy of this book and am voluntarily giving my review of this book.

ARG
Not enough adjectives to describe how much I enjoyed Sawbones 3. History, description of beautiful scenery and a loving family leading a normal family life. Or not so normal. Lots of twists and turns to keep you guessing and on your toes. I took my time reading the last few chapters. Just didn't want the story to end.

Honesty is the Best Policy
December 6, 2022

Beau and Becca have been frIenenemies since age ten. They've been neighbors and each other's sounding boards since that time. They've always been painfully honest with each other. Until, as adults, they realize they are more than honesty advisors to each other. They realize they're physically and emotionally attracted. But Beau finds he is cynical about their connection, he is afraid he's not good enough for her. That she'll leave him for bigger and better things. She's been off to college while he started his own custom woodworking business. Now they must find out if they can overcome their years of bickering, insecurity and brutal honesty. Can they learn to use their honesty for good, for their community and for each other? And, also, thank god for the brilliant advice and wisdom of Ellie Landry.

Great read. Story of a girls weekend away turn to mystery with a twist of a sexy hotel masseuse. A hot and sexy jungle and waterfall scene that turns into a cliff hanger and waiting to read the next book

I have a Nook reader and have used this site extensively. The books offered are older books but if I have not read an offered book, who cares. When I find a book that I want, I can go directly to Barnes & Noble and make my purchase. The prices are great and the download is fast, Who could ask for more.

As an author of forty years (trad, small press and indie, and ironically with the nickname Bub!) I think they're just a money-grabbing faceless corporation. I would like to know why I've always been knocked back by them and the last submission I made I temporarily lost my head when considering paying them to advertise a book I made free just for the purpose! This has to be total madness. Perhaps I've dodged a bullet. OK, it was a bit more affordable trying the international route (UK and Canada) and they won't accept everybody but to add insult to injury they cba communicating. A good company will communicate and seek to reach out to the customers it makes money from. Boycott them, authors and readers alike. They only care about exploiting authors. Look for your offers elsewhere. There are plenty of other decent and less exploitative sites out there.

I can't stop buying books through BookBub! I have bought countless great books at very low prices - and many for free. Most of them are anywhere from a year to 15 years old and have been on Best Seller Lists. I have had many hours of good reading. Thank you, BookBub! You can choose the type of books you would like to read and they will offer only the kinds that you have listed. My favorites are Mysteries, Cozies, Crime Fiction, and Women's Fiction. I also like Series (especially Engish Mysteries) Books where one can really get to know the main characters. There is no obligation to buy anything and no fees.

What a wonderfully written, intricately woven love story, that tackles the cold hard reality that is addiction. It cleverly shows how addiction transcends class, social status and many situations in life. Along with how it can ruin people, or how people can rise above it.

This book is a 5 star, there is lots of mystery and great suspect characters. There's twist and turns in this book. I thought I knew who the killer was but I was wrong.

All the Winning Numbers is the fourth in a series of works penned by David B. Smith. The work follows Rachel Marie, the books main character, through a series of significant road bumps in her life. She experiences personal sorrow, a moral dilemma as well as issues related to health. The book is written from a Christian perspective, and the author has the ability to wrap one story line upon another, keeping the reader anxiously anticipating the outcome of each story. Once I got started reading the book, I literally could not put it down. I highly recommend this book as a pleasant read while still dealing with significant issues of life.

Two years ago I ran an ad for one of my novels on BookBub. I set a budged of $5/day and it ran with no problems. So on June 15 of this year I decided to create a second ad for my recently released novel. I set an ad budget of $10/day.

But within a day or so I received charges from BookBub of $750, (since increased to $760), which had been automatically charged to my PayPal account. I immediately checked the data for the ad and found that my budget of $10/day had been increased to an insane $10,000/day.

I contacted BookBub about the error. Their response was, since 'I' had set the budget at $10,000/day, I was stuck with the charges and they were not going to do anything about it, nor refund any of the charges.

I don't know how my budget got changed, only that I did not do it. I can only conclude that there is a problem in BookBub's ad-creation program which they refuse to acknowledge.

Needless to say, I will not be using BookBub to run ads on. (On a side note, I got exactly one sale for my $760. I did much better with a one-week ad on Facebook for a tenth of the cost.)

Not a healthy site
March 3, 2020

Heavy focus on books that are unhealthy for family life. Looked around for a while but it is not the focus I am interested in, nor recommend to anyone else who is interested in healthy relationships.

Honesty?
March 26, 2016

Through iTunes I ordered books for 0,99. Hence my surprise when my credicard showed an amount of 3,99! When I filed a complaint with iTunes they asked me to prove that the book indeed did cost 0,99 and not 3.99. This looks like a way to enrich themselves!

They need to Stop!
November 2, 2016

I have ordered several books from this site, some paid for and others free, It seems that the individuals who rate the books as good must be getting paid to do so, or have questionable reading skills. All of the books listed, on the emails that I receive seem to be subpar: I don't think that most of these books would ever get published through a known Publisher,
I have not been able to finish any of the books that I have ordered, because of poor writing and extensive grammatical errors.
I am a reading junkie, and it has to be very bad for me not to finish.
Thank you,

I get an email everyday from BookBub. I have been very pleased with the free books that I select until I selected Shooter written by Dahlia West. The first part of the book was very good and then the rest of the book was filled with sex which I considered pornography. As soon as I got to that part of the book I quit reading the story. It would have been a good book if the author had left the pornography out. I called Nook and they deleted that book from my Nook. I would not want anyone to think I read such trash. Why do some writers think that they have to write trash to get people read their books?
