Thanks to Lady Zannah/Cleo who wrote these instructions:
1. Go to http://www.samhainpublishing.com/authors/gennita-low
2. At the bottom of the screen there is a link “Buy from MBaM” click on it
3. That link takes you to My Bookstore and More website, to the page of the book you want to purchase
4. Click on the “Add to cart” button and then click on the “Continue to checkout” button (unless you’re not done shopping)
5. If you are a new user, fill out form on the screen. If you have an account you can login on the right of the screen
6. If for some reason you don’t get sent straight to your shopping cart, the little cart icon is on the top right of the screen. Finish your checkout process and the book will be available for download once you pay.
7. You also receive an email with your transaction but they don’t send you a link to download your book that way. You can however, download from your account’s “ebook shelf” link on the bottom right hand of the screen.
8. I use Adobe Digital Editions reader but that is only because I downloaded that particular program from Adobe’s website. A regular Adobe Reader works perfectly for their ebooks. For downloading the pdf reader go to: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
9. MBaM also offers ebooks in .epub; .zip; .lit; .prc; .rb and .imp formats for those interested. Make sure to choose the format you want before you purchase the book.
10. Most important: I love Heath & Cumber babies. Happy Reading! (This last point is not needed to buy Virtually Hers ;-) )

Thank you, Cleo.
If you click on the ABOUT E-BOOKS link on the site, it'll tell you all the different ways to read an ebook. I've cut and paste a few examples:
The many ways to read an ebook
The number of ways you can read your ebook depends upon the file format you choose. Choose the format that best suits how you would like to read your book.
Adobe Acrobat is a free program for your computer or PDA. This format is the most popular: it can be read from your computer screen or imported to a Palm or Pocket PC and, if allowed by the publisher, can be printed.You can download this free reader at www.adobe.com.
HTML is the most versatile of all the formats. It can be read from your computer using your favorite browser. It can be used to convert to your favorite ebook reader’s required format (such as the Hiebook, the Rocketbook and the REB series readers) or can be sent via email directly to your Kindle. It can also be opened by a word processing program such as Microsoft Word or Open Office. You can print this file, but it will print as one continuous page.
Microsoft Reader can be read from either your PC or from your Pocket PC. It’s easy to use, the program is shaped to look like a book and it has read-aloud capabilities. This reader does not allow for printing. You can download this free reader at www.microsoft.com/reader.
I hope these instructions help those of you new to electronic books. If you have any other questions, don't be shy, ask them here. I'll be glad to help.

Cara
I GOT THE BOOK!!!! I GOT THE BOOK!!!! I GOT THE BOOK!!!! I uploaded it to my phone so I have it no matter what I have to do. I'm set!
I just bought V-Hers and took a peek at the ending.
It's unfinished...just like V-His?
Hi Cara,
Not as of now, but you can buy any format you wish, even to load into your Kindle if you're using one, through Samhain. Are you having trouble getting it from Canada?
Elaine,
I've often advertised the Super Soldier Spy series as an ongoing serial like Nora Roberts' Roarke and Eve Dallas IN DEATH series, with the first set, the Virtually Trilogy, as a trilogy--Virtually His, Virtually Hers, and Virtually One.
This is a series with an ongoing relationship. Other examples that I can think of that you can compare with: Illona Andrews' Kate Daniel (whom I adore) series and Patricia Briggs' Mercedes Thompson (also adore) series, in which you see a bigger story arc, a smaller story arc, and an ongoing relationship growing.
Vanessa and Rebecca,
Thank you! I'm just as excited as you. Maybe a tad more. :-)
Whooooooooo hooooooooooo! Just downloaded my copy of the book, too! Of course, now I have to go to work, darn it! Gah!
I'm so excited and pleased for you, Gennita! :)
p.s. I got the book! Have I mentioned that already?
