When Adrian the Brave, an arrogant con-artist posing as a knight, eats a mushroom he finds deep in the forest by his village, his life takes a turn for the worst. Immediately after he eats it, he becomes addicted. In his search for more mushrooms, he finds a trapped rabbit. The rabbit, whom he nicknames "Lackwit," offers to lead Adrian to an enchanted part of the forest where the magical mushrooms thrive, in exchange for freedom. Adrian soon discovers, however, that this forest is home to more than just mushrooms, and not all of the inhabitants are what they appear to be....

"There was not a thing in the world that could keep Emmeline Pyne from living her dream." Emmeline Pyne is a seventeen-year-old young lady of society. But no matter how sweet her smile may be, that's only to keep up appearances. Her rebellious and proud attitude prompt her--when threatened with marriage--to chop off her curls and join the Royal Air Navy. But there, her masquerade as "Emmet Pyne" is put to the test immediately. "The more people liked him and kept him around, the more likely it was that he would survive." Maxwell Bouvier has never had it easy. His family died when he was young, and after a few years of apprenticeship to an inventor, Max can figure out any machine. He keeps up a smile and an optimistic attitude despite troubles. Searching for reliability, but with tragedies following in his wake, he enlists in the Air Navy for a chance at his destiny.

"I must have hit my head a lot harder than I had anticipated, or maybe breathe too much smoke because this is definitely nut-case crazy. Or a very creepy dream that feels way too real for my own good. I can pat my subconscious on the back for that one, but at the same time, it might be a little over the top." When Melody set fire to a museum she didn't expect to hit her head on the pavement and wake up in a nightmare. But she does. And this nightmare is not a nightmare apparently--it's a curse. A curse that traps her into paintings. And there's no escaping from the wrath of a possessed painting out to teach an art-hater a lesson.

He just wants her booty, but she'll end up stealing his heart. ***** After pirates kidnap seventeen-year-old Ana in a case of mistaken identity, the orphaned housemaid prepares for the worst. Instead, between a shipwreck, mutiny, and her growing feelings for her captor -- the dashing Pirate King of the Caribbean, Alestair Kincade -- Ana soon realizes the secret she keeps is far from the most dangerous part of her new life. But playing the wholesome daughter of a Spanish admiral among rag-tag buccaneers isn't easy either, and to avoid both discovery and the gallows she'll have to learn to rely on more than just her wits and her charm. But is Alestair Kincade really on her side? Or will his protection and his love both disappear the moment he learns the truth?
