Heads up: free Annick Trent novelette

Annick Trent is providing a free historical f/f novelette (really, it's short enough to be a short story) called Harvest Season for all e-readers!

Set in 1790s Gloucestershire, here's the provided summary:
"Lowri has spent the past month bringing in the harvest and daydreaming about her one-night stand with Eliza, barmaid at the Blue Boar. When the two women meet again, the spark between them is as strong as ever, but they cannot immediately act upon it: they must race against time to warn a group of weavers who face arrest for organising a strike."


For all it is very short, this has a great sense of place. The circumstances of the POV character are ones that I have not read about before, which makes it feel fresh and interesting. There's a little suspense, union organizing, some kissing, and a leap into the great unknown -- what's more to want!

Thanks for the rec! (Also, how have I owned a Kobo for over a year and not known they have free ebooks? Lol.)
