Sinopse

Davy Jones' Locker: An Ultimate Pirate Collection offers an expansive treasure chest of over 80 novels and adventure stories, encapsulated in a rich medley of high seas adventures and swashbuckling legends. This anthology not only showcases an array of literary styles—from the gripping, intense narratives of early pirate life to the more structured, romanticized versions of sea adventures in later periods—but also integrates the standout theme of piracy in all its gritty and romanticized facets. Through a diverse lens, the collection navigates the reader across the tumultuous waves of maritime history and into the heart of human ambitions and conflicts on the high seas, without attributing its vast canvas to any single originator, celebrating instead a collective of distinguished voices bound by a shared motif. The contributing authors, including historical luminaries like Jack London, Charles Dickens, and Edgar Allan Poe, bring with them their unique backgrounds, infusing the classical pirate archetype with deeper cultural and historical contexts. The anthology resonates with echoes from different literary movements, integrating adventure, realism, romanticism, and gothic elements, that collectively underline the extensive spectrum of piracy narratives. This gathering of distinct literary voices, each from different timelines, geographical locations, and cultural perspectives, threads a comprehensive, multifaceted portrayal of the pirate world, broadening the reader's perception of piracy as more than mere lore or legend. An invaluable collection for both scholarly exploration and general aficionados of adventure, Davy Jones' Locker is a must-read for anyone interested in the allure and mystique of piracy through the ages. It beckons the reader to embark on a breathtaking journey through storms and battles of the high seas, offering a unique opportunity to experience a plethora of perspectives and styles within one volume. As it fosters a dialogue between the works of seasoned authors and the adventurous spirits they immortalize, this anthology promises profound insights and endless excitement for every intrigued mind, dragging them deeper into the depths of the pirate's saga in a world bound neither by time nor tide.

    “Please let me know when you would like to make the rejection official." Her words hit me like a ton of bricks and despite her acting like the words she just said were nothing important
     
     "Would you like to do it now?" While my head screams yes, my heart burns begging me to say no. How can I go from never wanting my little mate to feeling so torn up at the idea of her leaving? I always assumed that I would meet her and reject her without a care but now that the reality of the situation is staring me right in the face I know that it won't be easy, not one bit.
     
    Alpha Nicholas is 28, mateless, and has no interest in changing that. This year, it's his turn to host the annual Blue Moon Ball, and the last thing his wolf expects is to find his mate. Even more shocking is that his mate is 10 years younger—and he can’t ignore how his body reacts to her. He tries to fight the bond, but his world unravels when his guards capture two she-wolves running through his territory.
     
    Bonnie has been broken by those closest to her, including her own twin sister. Together with her best friend Lilly, they plan to escape during the Blue Moon Ball, hosted by another pack. But when things go wrong, they’re left uncertain about their future.
     
    When they’re brought to Alpha Nicholas, he faces his little mate again and uncovers secrets that will make him want to kill more than one person. Can Alpha Nicholas stop fighting the bond and accept a mate much younger than him? Will Bonnie want him after feeling the sting of his unofficial rejection? Can they both let go of their pasts, or will fate keep them apart?
     
    Note: Book 3 in the tetralogy series of the full edition (Chapters 73–103).

    A star quarterback with a legacy to uphold. A fiery activist with a past to avenge. The line between love and hate is about to snap.
     
    Caelen "Cael" Holt has spent his life a pawn in his family’s game, a golden boy with a secret. He's a star quarterback with a cold exterior, and the only thing he craves is to escape. But his carefully constructed world is shattered when a campus protest pits him against the one person who sees right through his carefully crafted mask: Rhys Thorne.
     
    Rhys Thorne is driven by a need for justice, fueled by a deep-seated anger at the company that ruined his family. He sees Cael as the physical embodiment of the corruption he despises. So when fate forces them into the same dorm room, their rivalry explodes into a war of words, turning their shared space into a tense battlefield.
     
    But in the quiet hours after the shouting, something else begins to simmer beneath the surface—a raw, undeniable attraction that defies logic. As their feud becomes a public spectacle, Rhys and Cael are forced to choose between the roles they’ve always played and a partnership that could change everything.
     
    Step into the visceral, high-stakes world of Brutal Desires, a story where genuine connection can break down the most deeply ingrained biases. Told in a dual first-person point of view, you'll feel the sting of their witty insults, the heat of their rising tension, and the raw, vulnerable power of their love. For fans of enemies-to-lovers romance who crave a story with a powerful political backdrop, this book is for you.
     
    Will their brutal pasts be their undoing, or will they finally find a future worth fighting for? Find out in Brutal Desires.
