SAYcoverBerkleyYep, folks, you read that correctly. For one week only, Something About You, the first book in the FBI/U.S. Attorney series, is available in all ebook formats for only $1.99! That means Kindle, Nook, Kobo, iTunes . . . basically everywhere ebooks are sold, I believe.

I’m thrilled that my publisher is offering this sale, so I’ll be spreading the word high and low. The ebook can be purchased for $1.99 at:

Kindle * Nook * iTunes * Kobo

So if you know anyone who might be curious to check out Jack Pallas–ahem–Something About You, tell ’em to get the book while it’s hot!

Here’s some more info:

FATE HAS THROWN TWO SWORN ENEMIES…

Of all the hotel rooms rented by all the adulterous politicians in Chicago, female Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron Lynde had to choose the one next to 1308, where some hot-and-heavy lovemaking ends in bloodshed. And of all the FBI agents in Illinois, it had to be Special Agent Jack Pallas who gets assigned to this high-profile homicide. The same Jack Pallas who still blames Cameron for a botched crackdown three years ago—and nearly ruining his career…

…INTO EACH OTHER’S ARMS

Work with Cameron Lynde? Are they kidding? Maybe, Jack thinks, this is some kind of welcome-back prank after his stint away from Chicago. But it’s no joke: the pair is going to have to put their rocky past behind them and focus on the case at hand. That is, if they can cut back on the razor-sharp jibes—and smother the flame of their sizzling-hot sexual tension…

So you may have heard that I have a new book, Love Irresistibly, coming out on April 2nd. (Whoo-hoo!) I’ll be honest, folks–I’m really excited. I had a great time writing Cade and Brooke’s story, and I hope you enjoy it as well.

Love Irresistibly is the fourth book in my FBI/US Attorney series. (FYI, for those of you who aren’t familiar, the books are a “series” in the sense that they are set in a shared world and some characters make appearances in later books.  But I write each book as a standalone, so you should feel free to jump in wherever you like!)

To celebrate the approaching release of Love Irresistibly, I’m planning to run a bunch of giveaways over the next several weeks, right here at this blog. (For you audiobook lovers, I think I’ll also throw in some chances to win the series on audiobook.) So let’s get started with the first giveaway, shall we?

This week I’m giving away five copies of Something About You, the first book in the FBI/US Attorney series, plus a $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble or Amazon (winner’s choice).

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Something About You, here’s a short description:
