Mondays: Mailbox/Where Am I/And gifts too!!

Mailbox Monday has moved over to Let Them Read Books for the month of December and In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted at The Story Siren.

I received only one  book, in the past week, thanks to the author:

The Heir by Grace Burrowes:

In order to escape the machinations of his father the Duke, Gayle Windham, Earl of Westhaven, is spending the summer in his townhouse in London. His father is desperate for Gayle to get married, going so far as to bribe potential fiancées or threaten them with his lofty connections. The discomfort of the hot sweltering summer is nothing compared to the onslaught of women who do not interest him, a category that, oddly, does not include his new housekeeper. Anna Seaton excels at her position, remembering the earl’s preferences, and making sure he has a well-kept home. But she does remain remote. The more Gayle sees Anna, the more he realizes that she is no ordinary housekeeper: She is beautiful, well-read, and acts and speaks like a true lady. As the two become intimate, he realizes that she is hiding a secret. And while he plans to make her his wife, she is planning her escape.

I got these from Veens! As you can see a bracelet (how did she know I love bracelets?!), that toy zuzu (it is a keyring), a small notebook (I needed one!), a card which can be used as book mark, a purse, and a letter. I must not forget the novel, Tinkers by Paul Harding, a Pulitzer Prize winner.

Synopsis:

An old man lies dying. As time collapses into memory, he travels deep into his past where he is reunited with his father and relives the wonder and pain of his impoverished New England youth. At once heartbreaking and life affirming, Tinkers is an elegiac meditation on love, loss, and the fierce beauty of nature.
