SALEM
I wasn’t supposed to be here.
I was supposed to be marrying my fiancé, looking forward to a tropical honeymoon. Instead, I found myself on a ferry headed for historic Balfour Manor on Blackridge Island, in the Pacific Northwest. Now I’m stranded, with a woman I’m irresistibly drawn to.
Rayne holds secrets as dark and mysterious as her old house. Crimson shadows stalk the halls and strange voices call out in the night—but it's she who haunts me most.
Following a gruesome murder, the island's true nature is revealed, and every night becomes a fight for survival. Something is stalking the forest, killing indiscriminately . . .
And this time, we're its prey.
RAYNE
Death has followed me since childhood. My mother's murder and father's violent death changed me, teaching me just how cruel the world could be.
I never got what I wanted, until Salem showed up at my door. She’s adventurous, beautiful, and doomed if she stays here. Now, I suddenly have something to lose: the woman who broke down my walls and saw through my mask, who showed me I'm worth loving.
My family has long been buried, but even the vilest of secrets must be dug up again to survive the evil that hunts us. I finally have something to fight for, and I'll do whatever it takes to save her.

Frente a los prodigios de la tecnología, capaz incluso de simular la inteligencia humana, sumado a la inutilidad aparente de la reflexión sobre el lenguaje o la historia, las humanidades enfrentan en la actualidad desafíos sin precedentes. En su nueva reflexión filosófica Carlos Peña, uno de los intelectuales públicos chilenos más relevantes, da cuenta de que esta querella contra las disciplinas que reflexionan sobre nuestra propia condición es un cuestionamiento de vieja data. En Humanidades. Lo visible y lo invisible, su autor nos invita a reflexionar sobre el papel crucial que estas disciplinas juegan en nuestra cultura y sociedad. Desde los primeros comentarios a los cantos homéricos y hasta las modernas interpretaciones literarias o históricas, las humanidades han sido fundamentales para entender la condición humana y el sentido que subyace a la cultura. Mostrando un gran dominio sobre la materia en cuestión y con un estilo asequible, Peña aborda las tesis sobre las humanidades que enarbolan tanto sus promotores como sus críticos más encarnizados, y defiende su relevancia en una sociedad donde la información es abundante pero la reflexión escasea. Un libro que es, en suma, una llamada a redescubrir el valor de la lectura, la reflexión y el pensamiento crítico.
NO HAY MEJOR PLOT TWIST QUE LA VERDAD❗
Sus palabras solían causar absoluta devoción, pero una reacción viral en contra de su última adaptación cinematográfica obliga a la escritora Petra Rose a tomarse un descanso. Señalada como un fraude y como una oportunista hambrienta de fama, Petra aprende de la peor manera lo que sucede cuando internet se vuelve en tu contra, y desde entonces pierde toda inspiración para escribir.
Ahora, con su próxima novela de suspense esbozada y los ahorros casi agotados, Petra se refugia en una cabaña aislada junto a un lago, con la esperanza de volver a escribir. Es el último intento por salvar su carrera… y a sí misma.
Entonces, aparece él. El detective Nathaniel Saint y su presencia encienden en ella una creatividad que creía apagada. Las palabras regresan y, poco a poco, Saint se convierte en su musa. Pero juntos se verán envueltos en un juego peligroso, uno en el que se desdibujan las líneas entre ficción y realidad. Cuando Saint comienza a tomarse su papel en la carrera de Petra demasiado en serio, ella se ve obligada a enfrentarse al caos que ha creado si quiere recuperar su reputación.
Evelyn is a witch with a perfect storm of impulses: terrible taste in bed partners, sticky fingers, and a lust for danger. After she steals from her vampire ex and falls through a portal to another realm, she’s fished out of the waters by a band of seafarers and their telekinetic captain. She’s immediately given a choice—join their ship’s crew or die.
Bowen has no memory of his life before he became one of the Cŵn Annwn. He and his band of pirates are bound by vow to patrol through Threshold, the magical sea in between realms, keeping the portals to other worlds safe. When he rescues Evelyn, he doesn’t expect to be attracted to the unflappably brassy pickpocket. The longer he spends in her presence, the more he begins to question if his heart is the next thing she’ll steal.
But as tension heats up between Bowen and Evelyn, the danger at sea escalates as well. Because Evelyn has no intention of keeping her vows to the Cŵn Annwn, and if she betrays the crew, both she and Bowen will pay the ultimate price….
