In particular, they’re spotlighting these four releases…Medalist, Back When You Called Us Devils, The Springtime Of My Life Began With You, and With The Sheikh in His Harem. Look for them later this spring on participating digital vendors including Bookwalker, comiXology, Google Play, Kindle, Nook and izneo.
