Going through the books at Smashwords is my penchant every now and then.
I decided to peruse the top free at Smashwords to add to my library. I hadn’t done this in a long while and as I clicked to page two, low and behold I read my name.
Now at first I was confused and I checked I was at the right side in the right category and read my name again. I rubbed my eyes and I looked again.
Yep that didn’t change the fact that my book I had written in 2010, LOVE LIKE THIS, (the first in the Black Family Series) was listed as the tenth top bestseller of free downloads.
Lovely day for me!
With #FreeFriday on the loose around the interwebs, I decided to capitalize on this Friday, by reminding you and others this book is free.

I’m pretty stoked about the reviews the book has been getting on Smashwords and around the web.
Now I have been getting complaints from Kindle readers about the book not being available on Amazon.
Since this book is free and Amazon doesn’t offer the book for free, I can’t in my good conscious offer the book for a price on the @AmazonKindle and then offer it free everywhere else. It takes a long moment for the book to get to free on Amazon once you put it there and I’d feel guilty if people started downloading the book for pay and then it’s free when the slow wheels of Amazon start to turn.
I do hope to make the book available in paperback soon. I actually have an editor on it. Ms. @TenitaJohnson. You have my permission to bother her on Twitter and push her to hurry up for you (but don’t tell her I sent you. LOL).
Oh! If you’ve read the first book in the Black Family Series, then there are three more to go.
Enjoy, Share and share some more! Thanks so much for supporting my literary endeavors!
Hi Ms. Hubbard,
I have read all four books in this series, and I have collected them all. Let me tell you, just like all your other novels, you deliver every time. I so enjoy the passion, suspense, and romance that you put in every one of your novels. As I stated before, you are a phenomena and gifted writer and author. Keep up the excellent work and keep the stories coming. I am a fan for life.
Your loyal fan,
Stephanie
thank you so very much Stephanie! I’m pretty proud of this series because it actually came up unexpectedly. Especially the Revenge of three. That was a great live book I really had fun with!
Love Like This was my very first Sylvia Hubbard book, I feel in love with you and needed more. Hope is Love and Stealing Innocents was my next two. So far I have read about twenty of your books & obviously can’t get enough. CONGRATULATIONS & KUDOS TO YOU. Since you Started Wicked Chances with Nicole & Jona (Hope) I was hoping the steamy green eyed black brothers Ethan & James would make an appearence. Im curious to know when will you have another book added to the Black series. & when will the BLACKs all unite. Ethan& James have another brother I have yet to read about according to the black family tree. Mysterious Mr. BLACK & Revenge of the three speak of two more, but I need MORE BLACK MEN because they are my first love (1st Characters introduced to) so im bias although I fall in love with every new character im introduced to. Keep up the good work.
