Kindle First

[Dngrsone]

Again, nothing really grabbed me.

[Manabi]

I went with Darkness Brutal, but it only sounded vaguely interesting to me. The rest sounded dreadful.

[Catlady]

I skipped the last two months completely; this month two of them (Dark Lure and Bum Rap) seemed at least to be possibilities. Will probably go with the former.

[NickyWithNook]

I am not even vaguely interested in any this month.

You could always buy them and lend them to those of us who want to read more than one.

[NickyWithNook]

Are they lendable?

Apparently not, I just checked the ones I got from both Kindle First and Samsung's Kindle Selections for May, April and March. None have a Loan Now option available.

I forgot to pick up a book in May -- probably not a big loss. This month, the only one that is appealing to me is the Urban Fantasy, Darkness Brutal. I will probably wait until later in the month and see if there are any reports -- good or bad -- on this month's offerings.

This is so odd. I could swear that books I purchased in the past by Amazon imprints always had lending on. Now I look at titles from last month or before and its not enabled. I just checked on a Amazon imprint book I purchased some time back and I still have the banner to loan it out, but on the description it says lending not available. Weird.

Just a reminder that this is the last day for the June selections if you haven't already picked one out.

[Dngrsone]

To hell with it; picked up Dark Lure on a whim... can't beat the price.

The Einstein Prophecy by Robert Masello (Thriller)

As war rages in 1944, young army lieutenant Lucas Athan recovers a sarcophagus excavated from an Egyptian tomb. Shipped to Princeton University for study, the box contains mysteries that only Lucas, aided by brilliant archaeologist Simone Rashid, can unlock.

These mysteries may, in fact, defy—or fulfill—the dire prophecies of Albert Einstein himself.

Struggling to decipher the sarcophagus’s strange contents, Lucas and Simone unwittingly release forces for both good and unmitigated evil. The fate of the world hangs not only on Professor Einstein’s secret research but also on Lucas’s ability to defeat an unholy adversary more powerful than anything he ever imagined.

From the mind of bestselling author and award-winning journalist Robert Masello comes a thrilling, page-turning adventure where modern science and primordial supernatural powers collide.

It's In His Heart (A Red River Valley Novel) by Shelly Alexander (Romance)

She has a secret. He has a scandal. And they both have an attraction they can’t deny.

Ella Dennings is furious. Soaking wet, muddy, and furious. All she wants is to enjoy a quiet summer retreat in her Red River Valley cabin. Maybe she can finish healing after the death of her husband, Bradley. Maybe she can even finish writing that third book in her anonymously written bestselling series. But when she arrives at the cabin in a raging rainstorm, who does she find holed up there but Cooper Wells, Bradley’s sexy best friend—a man capable of seducing women within seconds—and a man Ella has never liked.

Coop’s got his own baggage. He’s engulfed in a nasty legal battle, and after selling his home to cover his legal fees, he’s got nowhere to go but the cabin. He and Ella will just have to coexist under one roof...but is their heated animosity boiling over into attraction? And when Ella’s racy new book rocks the sleepy town, will her secret identity spell scandal for both of them?

Crooked Little Lies by Barbara Taylor Sissel (Contemporary Fiction)

On a cool October morning, Lauren Wilder is shaken when she comes close to striking Bo Laughlin with her car as he’s walking along the road’s edge. A young man well known in their small town of Hardys Walk, Texas, Bo seems fine, even if Lauren’s intuition says otherwise. Since the accident two years ago that left her brain in a fragile state, she can’t trust her own instincts—and neither can her family. Then Bo vanishes, and as the search for him ensues, the police question whether she’s responsible. Lauren is terrified, not of what she remembers but of what she doesn’t.

Unable to trust herself and unwilling to trust anyone else, Lauren begins her own investigation into the mystery of Bo’s disappearance. But the truth can prove to be as shocking as any lie, and as Lauren exposes each one, from her family, from her friends, she isn’t the only one who will face heart-stopping repercussions.

Cold Black Earth by Sam Reaves (Suspense)

When Rachel Lindstrom fled from her rural hometown in western Illinois to join the State Department and see the world, she never expected to return with her life in tatters. But after the horrors of war and a painful divorce, the only place where she can rebuild is the town she once escaped.

At home, however, there is little comfort. Her brother, still reeling from his wife’s suicide, struggles to run the family farm and handle a hell-raising son. Rachel’s arrival also draws a pair of rival suitors: her brother’s handsome friend and a rough-hewn sheriff’s deputy who pined for her in high school. Romance is the last thing on Rachel’s mind, but a little comfort would be nice—except for the complications.

When a deranged killer escapes from a local prison, the far-flung farmsteads go on high alert—especially when the bodies start turning up. And in a county where the miles outnumber the people, it soon becomes clear that the madman is close behind Rachel.

[Dngrsone]

I'll try Crooked Little Lies... Alzheimer's is my greatest fear, and an all-too-real possibility for me, considering my family's history; so this might be scary as hell for me.

[Wearever]

I picked " Einstein's Prophecy " I read a few pages, and it seemed pretty good.

[TrevorViking]

Three seem potentially decent, I'll roll a die.
