I'm sending an extra newsletter, because I didn't want you to miss out on these gifts – That's right, in celebration of my birthday (August 1), we have FREE books to keep you entertained through the long hot summer of quarantine!

First up, if you're new to my newsletter and haven't yet gotten your copy of my free novella, Lions and Love at the Cat Café, you can get it here. For “13 of the recipes mentioned in Kris Bock's Furrever Friends Sweet Romance series,” go here. Bonus - book 1 is also free via Amazon right now!

Free until August 3! Coffee and Crushes at the Cat Café: a Furrever Friends Sweet Romance. If you’ve read and enjoyed the book, send it to someone else who might enjoy it!

Kari doesn't have time for love when she's opening her new cat café. She’s busy hiring employees, fighting with the health inspector – oh, and welcoming 16 shelter cats. But when a sexy master baker walks in, she can’t let him get away. So what does she do with the guy of her dreams? Set him up with her sister, of course.

Find the book on my Amazon US page or Amazon UK page. (For other countries click here. I think it’s free everywhere, but it’s possible Amazon doesn’t agree, so let me know if you have a problem, and I’ll email you the Kindle, ePub or PDF version.)

Also free until August 3! The Mad Monk's Treasure, “Smart romance with an 'Indiana Jones' feel,” is ranked 4.7 out of 5 stars with over 50 reviews.

The Victorio Peak treasure is the stuff of legends. When a quiet history professor uncovers a clue to the lost treasure, she prepares for adventure. But she’s not the only one after the treasure. Is the handsome pilot who rescued her a hero or the enemy?

“The story has it all – action, romance, danger, intrigue, lost treasure, not to mention a sizzling relationship....” The Mad Monk’s Treasure is the first of the Southwest Treasure Hunters novels. Each novel stands alone, has a happy ending for the main couple, and is complete, with no cliffhangers. This series mixes action and adventure with romance. The stories explore the Southwest, especially New Mexico.

Find the book on my Amazon US page or Amazon UK page. (For other countries click here. Again, I think it’s free everywhere, but let me know if you have a problem.)
