Siblings Casper, Jonathan, Alyssa, and Nellie Walters once had everything: two loving parents, a beautiful house in San Fransisco, and all the portable electronic gadgets they could want and get. But all that changed when Dr. Walters lost his job in a wake of a mysterious incident. Now in dire straits, the family must relocate to an old Victorian house that used to be the home of an old novelist David Scott--a house that feels simultaneously creep and to good to be true.
By the time the Walters realize that their neighbors have sinister plans for them, they are banished to a forest way off the grid. Their parents? Gone. Their friends? A world away. And they aren't alone. Bloodthirsty medieval warriors patrol the woods around them, supernatural pirates roam the neighboring seas, and a power-hungry queen rules the land. To survive, the siblings will have to be braver than they ever thought possible—and to fight against their darkest impulses. The key may lie in their own connection to the secret David Scott legacy. But as they unravel that legacy, they’ll discover that it’s not just their family that’s in danger . . . it’s the entire world.

Broken Compass Year
It's the year 2008, and sixteen-year-old Royce Fontaine is looking forward to a long summer vacation alone with his siblings. If by 'looking forward' you mean 'totally dreading', that is. Their island is abandoned, and abandoned islands tend to be boring. Three months of boredom tend to make siblings fight, if for no other reason than to have something to do. So when things get weird and his father offers up a prospective vacation -- a real one, off the island and without the odious presence of his older brother -- Royce finds himself thrilled at the possibilities. New places, new people who don't know him as the pathetic geek that he is, maybe even a summer fling, provided he manages to find a way to get girls to notice him. It seems as if he can't lose. But then his father asks for his help carrying the load in the household, and he finds himself unexpectedly dealing with some consequences -- not of his own actions, but of his father's. Cast adrift in the multiverse, it falls to Royce to protect his younger sister in a fight for survival with nothing but his wits and a broken compass. Book 2 in a series about a family struggling to come together against powerful forces with a vested interest in keeping them apart.Complete

Embark on the journey of three unconventional individuals who willingly set out on an adventure only to become entangled in a disturbing and surreal series of supernatural events. In the fall of 1996, Soleil Barlowe, a sarcastic yet resourceful witch, Benji Horowitz, a kind-hearted half-demon with a passion for horror literature, and Casper De La Cruz, an artistic shapeshifter, committed themselves to their studies at their magical university in Hollingsworth Institute.

When Soleil receives an unexpected invitation to return to her childhood home in Louisiana, she and the boys are pulled into a world where Southern magic and realism intertwine. Ancient creatures ascend from mythical textbooks. Powerful witches frolic in their gated communities. Festivities linger in the air as the townsfolk are preparing for Halloween. However, as the gang journeys to the heart of New Orleans, they are pursued by supernatural entities at every turn. Vowing to stop the chaos themselves, Soleil, Benji, and Casper must delve deeper into Louisiana's magical yet sinister underbelly. Their quest for the truth tests their morals, leading to a chilling revelation regarding the demise of a once-popular amusement park.

"Nessuno oserà toccarti di nuovo senza perdere le mani, amore," they whispered. (No one will dare touch you again without losing their hands, love.) I felt two hands hold my face with a soft kiss on my forehead. Their rough and large hands a contrast to their gentleness. The comforter over me shuffled as the familiar person brought them up to my chin and tucked me in. "Riposati ora sei al sicuro, bambina," they murmured, stroking my hair. Before I knew it, simply the presence of them reassured me as I felt myself drift off again into a deep sleep. (Rest now, you're safe, baby). ☆ ☆ ☆ 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄 (noun): a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.
