Come Back to YouAuthor: Alexa RiversGenre: Romance
Regular Price: $6.99
Today’s Price: $0.99
I should have known when I sold my mansion in Bel Air and flew to the bottom of the world with a suitcase and a dream that nothing would go according to plan.
Returning to the small town where I’d spent the happiest year of my life had seemed like a great idea once the last of my younger siblings had left the nest. I’d put aside my own happiness for long enough. It was time to do something for me.
But Destiny Falls isn’t the same welcoming place I remember. The tight-knit community has rallied around Liam Braddock. They seem to think the broody firefighter needs protection… from me.
As for the man himself? He’s convinced I abandoned him for fame and fortune. He doesn’t know about the impossible decision I had to make, or the nights I cried myself to sleep wishing he was there.
I lost him once, but this time, I’m not giving up on us. I’ll do whatever it takes to prove we belong together.
The problem is, I’m not the only interloper in town. Someone seems to have it out for me, and if I’m not careful, the sparks firing between Liam and I will be short-lived…and so will we.

Reading Your Kindle While Bathing
I posted something similar a few years ago, but the mail bag has had people asking similar questions several times over the last few weeks…
From the title of this header, I’m sure some of you are scratching your heads. I have heard of people reading their Kindles while sitting in the bathtub (maybe you have one of the ones that are allegedly waterproof), using a variety of methods such as enclosing the Kindle in a Ziploc bag (for one of the older model Kindles) as well as having the Kindle enclosed in one of the waterproof cases I have seen on the Amazon website.
While the waterproof cases seem a little inconvenient and many are expensive and seems like a good solution if you are so inclined, I wouldn’t recommend reading your Kindle in the bathtub, pool , or shower trusting your life to it being enclosed securely in a Ziploc bag. If you wonder why I say that, just think of how dangerous it is to blow dry your hair while sitting in the bathtub – hopefully, you don’t do that – as it can kill you: if the electronics, and the electricity contained in them, get into the water and you are in the water you could die. And for you naysayers, it only takes one volt to kill you.
Death is obviously forever, and I can’t think of any book I would absolutely have to read while sitting in the bathtub that could jeopardize my life while reading it in a Ziploc bag. Besides, I take showers!
I bring this up as I received a note from a blog reader wanting to know if I knew of a cure for a Kindle that had been dropped in the bathtub. You could try drying it out in a bag filled with dry white rice and see if it resurrects your Kindle – that sometimes works on cell phones, but not when I was pushed one time into the pool and it fried my one-week old new cell phone – but I wouldn’t hold out much hope.
I think your best bet would be to call Amazon’s Kindle customer service and tell them what happened, as I have heard numerous stories of Amazon offering a replacement Kindle for half price. The only “catch” is after you receive the replacement Kindle you have to return the damaged unit. That 50% off replacement policy may not be valid today, but it is certainly worth a try.
Good luck!
Michael

How Fires EndAuthor: Marco RafalàGenre: Historical Fiction
Free via Kindle Unlimited: Yes
Regular Price: $5.99
Today’s Price: $0.99
A dark secret born out of World War II lies at the heart of a Sicilian American family in this emotional and sweeping saga of guilt, revenge, and, ultimately, redemption.
After soldiers vacate the Sicilian hillside town of Melilli in the summer of 1943, the locals celebrate, giving thanks to their patron saint, Sebastian. Amid the revelry, all it takes is one fateful moment for the destiny of nine-year-old Salvatore Vassallo to change forever. When his twin brothers are killed playing with an unexploded mortar shell, Salvatore’s faith is destroyed. As the family unravels, and fear ignites among their neighbors that the Vassallo name is cursed, one tragedy begets another.
Desperate to escape this haunting legacy, Salvatore accepts the help of an Italian soldier with fascist ties who ushers him and his sister, Nella, into a new beginning in America. In Middletown, Connecticut, in the immigrant neighborhood known as Little Melilli, these three struggle to build new lives for themselves. But a dangerous choice to keep their secrets hidden erupts in violence decades later. When Salvatore loses his inquisitive American-born son, David, they all learn too late the price sons pay for their fathers’ wars.
Written with elegiac prose, How Fires End delves into the secret wars of men; the sins they cannot bury; and a life lived in fear of who will reveal them, who will survive them, and who will forgive them.
