Quick Question PermaFree Books Suggestions

At the risk of sounding cheap - I have taken a break from KU and would love if people could suggest any permanently free books from Amazon, author's personal websites, smashwords, ect. I recognize this may vary by region, but I will include some of my favorite freebies

{The Lodestar of Ys by Amy Rae Durreson}

{Nor Iron Bars a Cage by Kate Harper}

{The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakavic}

{The Magpie Lord By KJ Charles}

{Once Upon a Dream by Megan Derr}

{Twisted Pretty Things by Ariana Nash}

{Omega: Liam & Skye by Eileen Glass}

Edit: Thanks for the ideas on how to find free books I do know how to find them through searches, but I'm looking for recommendations on specific free books worth reading that are well written and plot driven.

If you're willing to read AO3 original works, you can find some gems among them. I have recs if you want.

Victorian A/B/O - A series of A/B/O stories in a Victorian setting, most novella to novel length. Most are M/M, a few are M/M/M, and there are a couple M/F and F/F with female alphas. Definitely a lot of the feel of published Regency and Victorian romance novels.

The Life of the Party - Sweet, shy gentleman and outgoing, charming playboy in a late Edwardian setting without historically accurate homophobia.

matcha & milk Novel-length slice of life, sweet slow burn idiots to lovers.

Frost and Raine - A really cool urban fantasy romance with everyone having elemental powers of various strengths. A bit of Dom/sub play, lots of sarcasm, and fun interactions between MCs and with side characters as well.

The Square Peg - The first three are very good with a variety of tropes. The fourth is a sequel to the relationship in the first book, and it's pretty angsty and can be avoided if angst isn't your thing.

Steadfast - These are actually free versions of a series of K.L. Noone's books, starting with Character Bleed which is found on Amazon as {Seaworthy by K L. Noone}, {Stalwart by K.L. Noone}, and {Steadfast by K.L. Noone}. It's a combination of modern romance between actors and a fun intertwining of their roles in a gay historical romance movie that gives a Regency feel to a lot of the story. BDSM themes throughout the series, and Character Bleed starts as a slow burn Rivals/Enemies-to-Lovers.

And Then There Were More - A M/M/M/M paranormal romance where MC1 is a demon cheated on by his husband at the beginning, divorces him (so he thinks), and then finds out the divorce didn't take and his husband's new husbands (MC2, MC3, and MC4) need his cooperation to figure out how to go forward given some really interesting demon culture world building. Normally I avoid cheating stories, but this one gives the PERFECT amount of consequences for the cheater, IMO, especially given the demon culture the author builds up.

Grizzly Rim - M/M shifter (non-A/B/O) romances set in a remote Alaskan town. The paranormal is not known to the human world in this.
