Free Game - Heartwild Solitaire Classic

Heartwild Solitaire Classic is an interesting twist on the traditional solitaire card game. Sure, you already have at least one free version on your PC (my new Windows 7 computer has three different ones), but this one comes with several free short stories, all in the romance genre. To read them, you must play the game, unlocking one story each time you "win". You can download it for free from Orchid Games - of course, they are hoping you'll like it enough to come back and buy the full version, which includes chapters of a single book, rather than short stories, and has a free demo available with the first two chapters included.

Book Description
We asked seven romance authors to write short stories for this title. They came out just perfect and you will be able to read them after winning a game of solitaire. Here's the list of stories and their authors:

• "Clarissa and Hastings" by Sherry Thomas
• "Fate" by Victoria Smith
• "Last Words" by Megan Hart
• "Price of Coffee" by Misty Simon
• "The Six Of Hearts" by Kimber Chin
• "Touchdown" by Natalie J. Damschroder
• "When You Least Expect It" by Dee Tenorio

Two Books Free on Sony/B&N, 99 cents Kindle

There is always a chance that these will end up free on Amazon as well (after all, they are "free" editions), but currently these two books are free in the Sony store (search by name in the Reader Library software) and the Barnes & Noble store and 99 cents on the Kindle.

Amberville Free with Bonus Material ($0.99 Kindle; Free B&N), by Tim Davys

Book Description
What does it mean to be bad? Eric Bear has it all: a successful career, a beautiful wife, a blissful home. He knows he's been lucky; a while back, his life revolved around drugs, gambling, a gang of stuffed-animal thugs, and notorious crime boss Nicholas Dove. But the past isn't as far away as Eric had hoped. Rumors are swirling that Dove is on the Death List and that he wants Eric to save him. If Eric fails to act, his beloved wife, Emma Rabbit, will be torn apart, limb by limb. With a nod to the best of noir and the wisest of allegories, and interlaced with greed and gangsters, Amberville depicts an alternate world that mirrors our own realities and moral concerns, and reminds us of the inextricable link between good and evil.This special free edition includes an excerpt from Tim Davys' newest Mollisan Town novel, Lanceheim.
