    Carlos sets Andy the challenge of performing a comedy gig in every English county in 10 weeks.

    Betty challenges Andy to be a sensitive, focused, devoted husband-to-be as they prepare for their wedding in 10 weeks’ time.

    Suddenly the two loves of Andy’s life are in competition. Who will win?

    Andy Kind is an award-winning stand-up comedian and author of Stand Up And Deliver: a nervous rookie on the comedy circuit.

    I've just got my credit card statement and noticed I've been charged£4.62 for this book. Amazon are insistent that the book couldn't 't have been free when I purchased, though I'm certain it was. The email had a charge of £4.62, which I hadn't noticed at the time.
    As a gesture of goodwill, they have offered a refund, and have removed book from device. If others downloaded it, it might be worth checking.

    I wonder if you missed out on it for free and did not notice the cost as sometimes they are only free for a short period (sometimes only a day or less)?
    I have not been billed mine was free - downloaded on the 17th.

    What was the price on your confirmation of the order email? this would have confirmed whether it was free or £4.62!

    My order was processed at 9.18am on 17th. See below. I was pretty certain it was free when I clicked on it, but as you can see from email I was charged £4.62,but never bother checking the free orders. Lesson learned, and I also learned that books could be cancelled within 7 days. No harm done :) It's amazing how quickly the prices change!

    They do change quickly I sometimes wonder if they were on in error :(, seems you have been unlucky with a few of my recommendations :(:(

    Re the returns, yes done that a few times after ordering and then having a change of mind, about a month ago order several James Herbert for Hubby that were cheap as he had just read an old one, then after I ordered them he said now I remember why I stopped reading them :eek: so I quickly returned them :)
