BLURB:
Dead men tell no tales...
For more than 200 years, the Treasure Pit on Oak Isle has baffled treasure hunters, engineers, and the common man alike. When Samantha Greene arrives, she finds her estranged father has spent years funneling energy and finances into the endeavor, finding nothing.
When an accidental death occurs in the pit, fulfilling the prophecy that seven lives must end before the treasure can be found, the search kicks into high gear, with more than one party vying for the secrets that lie below. Finding herself the closest to the treasure anyone has ever been, Samantha throws herself into the work, landing among the coveted prize. Just as she's about to discover what's truly hidden beneath the island, the pit begins to flood with ocean water, sweeping her away despite her attempts to swim to the surface.
Upon awaking, Samantha discovers that, not only did she not drown, but the year is 1695-one hundred years before the Treasure Pit was even discovered. Carried off by the pirate Tristan O'Rourke, a rouge Irishman with more than his share of secrets, she soon finds that there is much more than she realized in play. Will she discover the secrets of Oak Isle, or will an unexpected love keep her from finding out the truth? Will she ever make it back to her own time? Perhaps the real question is this; will she want to?

The Dea → Peter Pan ✔
In which a boy who thinks he controls everything meets the girl who actually does. --- Peter Pan is king of Neverland, a mystical island of his own creation. His Lost Boys serve as his troops and have been his only company for the last millennium. Until his shadow brought a girl to Neverland, by the name of Wendy Darling. But she's not the one this story's about. Why? It's simple. Because she's dead. She broke Peter's heart, so he killed her. Only he and the Lost Boys know what happened the night Wendy disappeared, and Peter means to take the secret to his grave, assuming he ever dies, of course. If the Lost Boys know what's good for them, they will too. None of the other creatures on the island have any idea of what became of the one girl who had ever set foot on Neverland. However, what at first seems to be a siren with a know-it-all attitude threatens to change all that. She knows exactly why Peter's heart is shattered. But what she wants to do with that information is, for the very first time, is absolutely unclear to Peter. That doesn't sit well with the Ruler of Neverland. And whatever doesn't sit well with Peter, he either figures it out or kills it. The problem is, he can't seem to manage to do the first option, and for some reason, can't bring himself to do the second. --- Dea: Goddess [Latin]Concluida
Drowned in Desire
Drowned in Desire is a chilling tale of forbidden passion, dangerous secrets, and the unrelenting pull of obsession. Isla Ramirez, a brilliant marine biologist, arrives on a forgotten island in the Pacific to investigate the discovery of an ancient submerged city. The island, beautiful and isolated, hides a centuries-old mystery beneath its waves-a mystery that should have remained untouched. With her sharp intellect and fearless nature, Isla dives into the depths of the ocean, eager to uncover its secrets. But the deeper she goes, the more she realizes that some things are better left buried. As she unravels the submerged city's dark history, Isla becomes increasingly entangled with Nash Rhodes, a marine archaeologist who is as enigmatic as the island itself. His presence is magnetic, his allure undeniable, but Nash harbors his own demons, and his obsession with the island runs deeper than Isla could ever imagine. Drawn to him in ways she can't explain, Isla finds herself drowning in a sea of desire and danger. Nash's past, intertwined with the island's curse, threatens to pull them both under. As supernatural forces awaken, Isla must confront the terrifying truth: breaking the curse may cost her more than she is willing to lose. But is love worth the ultimate sacrifice? Torn between love, fear, and the unknown, Isla must decide how far she's willing to go for the truth-and whether she can escape the island's grasp without losing herself in the processConcluida
Quintspinner - A Pirate's Quest
Even in the year 1717, one month, one week, or one day, can make all the difference in the world. One month ago, Tess Willoughby was the daughter of a well-to-do physician in London, and she witnessed the murder of an old seer. Coming into possession of the dead woman's odd ring - an ancient Spinner ring, known by the locals as the Ring of Prophesy, she was wrongly accused by her father of having stolen the ring. Three weeks ago, by her father's arrangement for the family, she became an unwilling passenger on a merchant ship bound for the pirate-infested waters of the Caribbean. Two weeks ago, at her father's insistence, she became forcibly betrothed to a man who she recognized as being the seer's murderer - a man who covets her only for her ring. One week ago, she met a sailor and experienced the thrill of being in love for the first time. Two days ago, she realized that such a secret love would endanger them both, and, heart-broken, she was forced to choose her loyalty. Yesterday, her fiancé betrayed her during a pirate attack and those she loved were slaughtered. Today, she is plotting to save her own life and perhaps to take his in retribution. The ring is urging her to decide quickly... Tomorrow will be too late. A tale of pirates and treasure, love and betrayal, all bound together by a dash of ancient magic, QUINTSPINNER - A PIRATE'S QUEST is a cross-over novel that has entertained both YA and adult audiences alike. Meticulously researched, yet not your typical historical fiction, it presents the blood and the mud of life in the 1700's. Full of high seas action, dangerous magic, and a dash of romance, Quintspinner is a swashbuckling adventure that twists and turns with the fury of a hurricane.Concluida

Saltblood and Silence
Four years after the storm. Queen Emma Swan rules a fragile Enchanted Forest rebuilt from ashes-but she rules alone. The Pirate Queen who saved her vanished into the mist without a word. In her place come emissaries: eleven powerful figures from fallen kingdoms, all loyal to a ghost. Each brings their own resources, secrets, and debts-answering not to Emma, but to Regina. While Emma navigates a world shaped by someone else's empire, the Ravager sails on. Far across the seas, a stowaway child-Rag-sneaks aboard one of Regina's shadow ships, dreaming of freedom and pirate glory. Instead, Rag is broken down, beaten, and forged in salt and labor under the brutal hands of the crew. What begins as punishment becomes survival, and what survives begins to learn. As whispers rise of assassinations among the emissaries, Emma digs deeper into the Queen's web. She uncovers a hidden empire built over thirty-five years: former prisoners, now nobles and ministers. Survivors of Regina's ship, released with new names and silent vows. She was not the first. And she may not be the last. When one of the emissaries is murdered, the tides shift. The Ravager returns to Hollowdeep, an underwater fortress carved in silence and magic. And the Pirate Queen rises again-cursed, burning, and merciless. Old wounds open. Loyalties crack. Emma must face the truth: the empire Regina built might be the only thing keeping their world from collapsing. But can she forgive the woman who made her a weapon? Can she lead beside her, or must she defy her? And somewhere in the fog, the stowaway watches it all-still nameless, still unknown-waiting for a place to belong.

Thieves of the crown
The kingdom of Orovia bleeds. Every harvest season, the Frost royals send their imperials to strip villages bare. Gold. Crops. Heirlooms. Even lives. Everything claimed in the name of the crown. Alexandra Beaumont has lost enough. When the king opens the army to new recruits, she seizes her chance. Not to serve, but to steal. Beneath the armor of a royal soldier, she hides a secret mission: infiltrate the castle, reclaim what was stolen, and return it to the people who were robbed of everything. But she is not alone. A band of outcasts forms at her side, bound by vengeance and hope. By day, they wear the king's colors. By night, they become shadows on the sea. Pirates who raid treasuries, kingdoms, and crowns themselves. Rebels carving justice out of theft. Yet betrayal stalks the rebellion as closely as the royals do. And when Alexandra's heart tangles with Asher Knight-the general's son, her greatest threat, and her greatest ally-loyalties blur, danger sharpens, and every stolen heartbeat could be her last. In a world where rebellion is treason and love is forbidden, Alexandra must decide how much she's willing to sacrifice to take back a kingdom drowning in frost.
Salt in Her Veins
When Lady Katherine Rosia Fang escapes the fate of a nobleman's leash-sold off to the highest bidder to salvage her crumbling family name-she finds herself stowed away aboard a pirate ship, the Iron Wren, led by the infamously sharp, infuriatingly composed Captain Arthur Kirkland. But Kat is no ordinary stowaway. Fierce, clever, and dangerously untamed, she claws her way into survival, leaving tatters of silk and every expectation of obedience in her wake. Her wit bites. Her pride burns. And her past? It's hunting her-led by a marquis obsessed not with her name, but with owning her entirely. As Kat battles storms, swords, and the wild-eyed man chasing her through every port, she carves out a place among the pirates who reluctantly come to call her family. Alongside Arthur-whose past bleeds through his silence-she finds something unexpected: trust, loyalty, and the slow, breathless pull of something that might be love. But nothing comes easy at sea. When chains return and the Marquis closes in, Kat and Arthur face war on every front-flesh, heart, and legacy. Blood is spilled. Bones are broken. And beneath moonlight and cannon smoke, their bond is tested by pain, pride, and the impossible cost of freedom. This is a story of a girl who was never meant to kneel. A pirate who never learned how to stop running. And the brutal, beautiful truth of finding home in each other-through ruin, rescue, and the kind of love that tastes like gunpowder and hope.Concluida
