Mailbox Monday is a meme started by Marcia of To Be Continued. Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week. It now has a permanent home at the Mailbox Monday blog. Head over and check out other books received during the last week.
I received one book this week Home Fires by Fiona Lowe. This is a review copy from the publisher. Fiona Lowe's Birthright was my 2018 read of the year so I am excited to receive Lowe's latest novel.
✿.｡.:* ☆:**:about the book:**:.☆*.:｡.✿
When a lethal bushfire
tore through Myrtle, nestled in Victoria's breathtaking Otway Ranges,
the town's buildings - and the lives of its residents - were left as
smouldering ash. For three women in particular, the fire fractured their
lives and their relationships.
Eighteen months later, with the flurry of national attention long past, Myrtle stands restored, shiny and new. But is the outside polish just a veneer? Community stalwart Julie thinks tourism could bring back some financial stability to their little corner of the world and soon prods Claire, Bec and Sophie into joining her group. But the scar tissue of trauma runs deep, and as each woman exposes her secrets and faces the damage that day wrought, a shocking truth will emerge that will shake the town to its newly rebuilt foundations...

I've read two books over the last week and reviews will be posted soon
The Secret Son's Homecoming - a Harlequin Romance read. I enjoy these as they always have a happy ending, guaranteed.
Less You Know - A mystery thriller with a few really good twists.
