LLT I’m delighted to announce that Book Four in The Women of Independence series is now available at all major e-book retailers.

It’s been a pleasure to share this series with you, and I’d like to thank everyone who took the time to leave glowing reviews.

Here’s the book description:

What would you do if your boyfriend suggested you date other people? Tyler’s suggestion comes out of the blue and suddenly Katie’s well-ordered life is crumbling around her. And to make matters worse, the grandmother she never really knew decides to make contact.

Join Katie as she weighs college life against a murky, undecided future. Will Tyler still be there when she comes home, or is he dating as well?< Love’s Like That is Book Four in The Women of Independence series. This book is a complete story, but is shorter than the other three, and is priced accordingly. And here are the buy links. Enjoy! Amazon US: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X1SYAF4

NHL Regular Season starts October 8th…

Jock …What will you do while he watches the hockey game?

Okay, I have a confession. I love hockey, and I’ll be watching too. Especially my Canucks. We still have our core of excellent players, but this year we welcome some fresh, new talent. Not to mention new Coach and management. Should be a fun year.

But for those of you who don’t watch, here’s an idea. You can probably finish this delightful Romance novella while he watches the game. I loved writing this one, as it combines a delightful romance with the very real topic of violence in hockey. The best news of all is that it’s FREE, and is available everywhere – Amazon, Nook, iTunes, Kobo, Scribd.

Freddie And then, when another game rolls around this weekend, my other novella is free as well. No hockey in this one, but Fixing Freddie also takes place in and around Vancouver. I fall in love with all my heroes, but there’s something about Freddie I particularly like. Let me know if you feel the same.

Sometimes A Girl Just Has To Brag

July 4, 2014 by Mona

LFA I’m a typical Canadian in that I’m uncomfortable tooting my own horn, but this is different. I recently learned that my book Loving From Afar has been chosen as a Semi-Finalist for the 2014 Best Kindle Book Awards, sponsored by the Kindle Book Review.

It’s an honor to have my work recognized.

If you haven’t read it yet, Loving From Afar is free everywhere, including all Amazon outlets. Download links here.

What’s In It For Me?

May 1, 2014 by Mona

Please help me make one of my books free on Amazon.

Friends and readers often ask me why some of my books are free. We authors assume you know, which is probably a big mistake.

Getting a book to market is a time-consuming, expensive proposition. So why give it away?

Because in many cases it’s the first book in a series. We authors hope that you will enjoy it enough to buy the rest of the books in the series. If we’ve done our job, you’ll do just that. I wouldn’t be the first author to point out that an e-book often costs less than a designer coffee.

iTunes, B&N/Nook Books and Kobo allow free on a permanent basis. Amazon is different. Amazon’s policy is that, at their discretion, they will price match other e-book retailers if customers report to them that the book is available at a lower price somewhere else.

And this is where I’m requesting your help. My book Loving From Afar is the first book in The Women of Independence Series, and is available free at the three outlets mentioned above. I’d really like to see it free at Amazon, and I’m asking your help to report it. You don’t need to have purchased it, but you do have to have an account with Amazon to report it.

If you haven’t done this before, here’s how it works:
Copy any of these links, which show where the book is available for free:
iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/id845351007
B&N: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/1118970807?ean=2940045783538
Kobo: http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Loving-From-Afar/book-vIajm9hPS0yVgiBx2pVEQw/page1.html

Then go to the sales page on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, or Amazon.ca, depending on where you have your account. Here are the links:
US: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DGFXDLO
UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DGFXDLO
CA: http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00DGFXDLO

then scroll down to ‘tell us about a lower price’ in Product Details, and click that line. A small form opens up. You click on Online/Website, and paste in whichever URL you chose from the above list. Price: 0. Shipping: 0, then click Submit, and it’s done.

Report more than one place it’s free if you like, but I’m grateful for any and all reports.

I’ll let you know if it works, and thanks.

Loving From Afar is Book One in The Women of Independence series.

This book has it all: despair, sorrow and romance. I enjoyed writing it, and based on initial reaction, readers are enjoying it as well. Here’s a brief description:

What would you do if your perfect life was shattered by a series of uncontrollable events?

Allison Ransome loses everything; everything except her love for Cole Slater, the young man she planned to marry after graduation.

Gutted by Allison’s perceived treachery, Cole moves on with his life. Ten years later, he returns home, telling himself he will avoid the woman who broke his heart.

But nothing goes as planned. Can Allison and Cole forget the past and come to terms with the events that tore them apart?
