Mailbox Monday/ In My Mailbox
Mailbox Monday, hosted by Marcia, and In My Mailbox, hosted by Kristi, are weekly events where you post the books that you received in the mail in the previous week.
I received one book last week, and reviewed another book that came in the mail the two weeks ago as well.
“Dancing With Ana” by Nicole Barker came via mail directly from the author, and my review of it is available here.
“Beth is a lucky girl…
She comes from a loving family. She has three best friends. She loves to surf and lives five minutes from the beach. She also recently discovered that the boy she’s grown up with has the most amazing green eyes…
Beth has every reason to smile. Every reason to be happy. Every reason to feel blessed.
Then why is she sticking her fingers down her throat?
Sixteen year old Beth Baxter’s life merely resembles the one she’s always known. Her father has left. She is falling for Jeremy Duscana and the diet she started has somehow turned into an obsession. Yet her three best friends remain the same, always there for her.
But even their love can’t save her from herself.
Dancing With Ana. A story about the journey to acceptance of one’s own reality, the incredible bond that exists between friends and a love that truly endures all things.”

“Whiskey Gulf” by Clyde Ford arrived in the mail last week as a review copy, and my review for it will be posted later this week.
“After a sailboat drifts into a “livefire” naval exercise area known as Whiskey Gulf, it’s never heard from again. Maritime private investigator Charlie Noble is asked to discover what happened to the couple aboard. But he’s stonewalled by the American and Canadian military. Then he learns that a Middle Eastern agent has been dispatched to find the couple as well—an agent with an old score to settle from his days as a Coast Guard intelligence officer.”
