After opening the book and selecting the font I was able to go in and out of the book without the reading position changing.

I suggest you try the same book and font to see if they work for you. That will help to narrow down whether the problem is specific to your device.
I appreciate your time, that book was actually locked to the ember font. Whenever I would change the font, it would still display the ember font no matter what actual font was selected.

EDIT: I did try another AZW3 here and it exhibited the same behaviour.
