"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength." In a steampunk-inspired World War II, treachery and secrets abound as the world spirals closer to chaos. Steve Rogers is a would-be soldier with nothing to lose. Denied from enlisting more times than he can count, he's willing to throw his life on the line in a desperate attempt to do his part for the war effort. Tony Stark is a vigilante genius who doesn't know where his loyalties lie. He could care less about which flag you fly under, so long as you pay him in cash to get the job done. The son of the government's leading weapons provider, he is a dangerous loose cannon in the precarious game of wartime. Clint Barton is a sailor with a dark past he'd do anything to leave behind. Although he thinks he's free on the high seas, his demons still linger beneath the surface, threatening to burst forth at any moment. War will bring them together, and war will tear them apart. © 2017 CaroDelMonte Cover by me

It's one thing to Qualify... But do you have what it takes to Compete? *** COMPETE: The Atlantis Grail (Book Two) continues the exciting story of Gwen Lark that started in QUALIFY: http://www.wattpad.com/story/18913615-qualify-the-atlantis-grail-book-one * * * With Earth about to be destroyed by an extinction level asteroid, teenage nerd, geek, and awkward smart girl Gwen Lark, and a few of her friends and loved ones, barely Qualified for rescue onboard one of the thousands of ark-ships headed to the ancient colony planet Atlantis. Now faced with a year-long journey in space, life in a wondrously alien environment, and many tough life choices, Gwen must decide who or what she will become. Fleet Cadet or Civilian? Friend or lover? Average or extraordinary? Can she make new friends? Can she trust the old ones, such as Logan Sangre, her sexy high school crush and an Earth special operative? Time and time again, Gwen's uncanny ability to come up with the best answer in a crisis saves her life and others. And now, her unique Logos voice makes her an extremely valuable commodity to the Atlanteans-so much so that her enigmatic commanding officer Aeson Kassiopei, who is also the Imperial Prince of Atlantis, has taken an increasingly personal interest in her. Before the end of the journey, Gwen must convince him that she has what it takes to compete in the deadly Games of the Atlantis Grail. It's becoming apparent-the life of her family and all of Earth depends on it.

Had enough of the bad boys? How about a gentleman for a change? °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° With their hands clasped together as they danced to the slow tempo of the song, Grace couldn't help but wish the moment could last forever. She wasn't sure why, but she just did. Steve was looking down at her, his greenish eyes never once leaving her face. ❝What is it, Steve?❞ Grace finally questioned. Although she had grown comfortable around him, she often found that stare of his leaving her edgy. ❝I'm just silently admiring you. Can I not?❞ he breathed, the most innocent smile etching itself on his masculine features. One of his hands slowly slid down to the small of her back in an attempt to bring her closer. His eyes soon hovered over her lips and she wondered what it must feel like to have her lips locked with Steve Phelps. °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° It was a rainy day in New York and Grace Denning was shivering in the cold with her practically useless umbrella. Not only does she end up being 'accidentally' bumped into by a rather handsome man on her way home, but she later finds out that beneath the beauty lives a mysterious man willing to do anything to get her attention. With a much more broken past than Grace had initially thought, she eventually finds out that Steve isn't just a womanizer on the outside. And he might just end up cracking Grace's hard shell. And to think it all began on a rainy day... Cover by @Fallen_God15, check out her covers!

"500 years or so of life, and all of it gone. No memory of my past life what so ever. No Gallifrey, no TARDIS, no Time War, and worst of all, no Doctor. All that remained was a young and naïve human girl, with the name of Ester." The Teacher was known as the Doctor's constant companion, but she was always so much more than that. She'd been with him since the beginning and was his best friend. But when the Time War erupts and her parents want to protect their daughter, she's ripped away from the Doctor and sent to Earth to live out her life while the war continued. But Ester knows nothing of this, and her greatest problem isn't the Time War, but trying to figure out the visions of screams and destruction that haunt her nights. And who is the mysterious man that makes many appearances in her dreams?

2014 WATTY WINNER!! (Collector's Dream Award for being one of the most want-to-read stories of 2014!). A Wattpad Featured story, and a Summer 2015 #WattpadBlockParty featured book! Undone Realms series: bk. 1 Out of countless realms in the multiverse, Clara is trapped in one that won't let her breathe. Her life consists of a hotel in a tiny pocket universe overlapping our own. Population: one. She doesn't know how she came to be there, how she can exist without breathing, or why she can see into the breathing world, but no one can see into hers. Nolan doesn't know any more about parallel worlds or pocket universes than Clara does. Running away from his abusive father, he finds work at the hotel. Depressed, Nolan wants to disappear as much as Clara wishes to be seen. There is little hope that they'll share anything beyond a palpable loneliness until the morning the barrier separating their planes of existence is breached and for the first time, Clara's unseen world is made visible. As Nolan is slowly drawn into Clara's breathless reality, he must decide whether the love of one person is worth crossing into a world that may never let him back into his own.

When the popular kids at Westfield High School begin getting matching star-shaped tattoos, Chelsie doesn't think much of it. She's never been one to follow a fad. Besides, her circle of geeks have little hope of ever being popular. Before long, though, it's not just the cool kids showing up to school baring the cerulean blue stars. Encouraged by a popular boy to get inked, Chelsie's best friend Jayla can resist the rage no longer. One day, the girls are planning which Ivy League school to apply to; the next, Jayla won't even look in Chelsie's direction, and her biggest concern becomes matching accessories with those of her starred friends. Something is very wrong with those tattoos. Someone, or something, is using them to control her classmates. At first the "star students" seem weirdly docile. Then their behavior turns in a most horrifying manner. The closer Chelsie gets to the truth, the more likely it seems she'll find herself either under the needle or under six feet of dirt. If that happens, there will be no one left to stop the growing evil from taking over not only her school, but the entire town. Cover photo by Mick Amatto. Cover design by Drew Kunz.
