So so so good!!! I enjoyed all the stories, they were all well written and fun reads. Of course I also loved that pirates were such a heavy theme in the books, along with redemption, love, and battles.
Each one was unique while also fitting into the theme, each one with its own writing style and cast of characters perfect for their story.
Literally the best anthology I’ve ever read! And no I’m not just saying that because I’m friends with most of the authors (even though I love them so much). Truly every story in this book was fantastic and I’m so proud of each and every one of these authors.
Love it!

I’m a sucker for pirate stories, and this anthology had what I was looking for! I usually read longer books, so it did take some adjusting for me to read these shorter stories. But by the end of most of the stories I found myself flipping the pages, frantically searching for more about the characters I fell in love with!
I think this anthology was a great way to introduce readers to these new and upcoming authors. I think my favorite was Selfishly (by Xiola Bagwell); I just fell in love with the world she created and I cannot wait to see what happens next! I hope she continues their story in some way, or even gives us a prologue about Boot!!

Treasures Untold is filled with exciting stories of adventure. A theme of treasure (whether physical or metaphysical) is woven into every story. It adds a sense of connection even though each story is totally unique! Great for fans of fast paced swashbuckling books.
here are some quick comments on each individual story and a few of my favorite quotes
The Lily And The Hawk
I especially liked the dynamics between the characters in this story. Shadi and Zhalik were both strong characters and more of their strength was shown in how they built up each other and those around them for the better.
“I am trying to say that we are, none of us, infallible, but we are stronger when we stand together.”
Unlocking The Depths
This story had a level of unexpectedness that I appreciated. I would think everything was going one way but there were so many possibilities I really had to keep reading to see how it would all end.
The Stolen Moonlight
This was another story I couldn’t quite predict. Mina’s predicament of being stuck between the kindness of new friends and her lifelong dream made for an exciting fun read. I loved Lia she was such a cute character.
Feline Felon
This story was very uniquely written not something I’ve often seen the likes of. Very fast paced and mysterious feeling. Certain parts were especially poetic and I really liked that.
“I never realised what a treasure truth is until I was labelled as a liar”
The Cost Of Treason
This might have been my favorite in the anthology. The main characters Levi and Elara both really tugged at my heart. There was both a beauty and tragedy to their story and I found myself hooked.
“Greatness is built from the courage to do what’s right. And using fear against someone is never right.”
Selfishly
Greed and love came to clash in this story. An exciting dance between treachery of different kinds. It asked a lot of interesting questions even while gripping you with the action.

All of these stories were really good. Some were faster-paced than others. If you love adventure, action, romance, pirates, circuses, and mystery, you will love all of these stories. I love the title "Treasures Untold" because it reminds me that there are treasures out there waiting to be found, and those treasures don't have to be material things. Those treasures can be life-fulfilling and awe-inspiring. What treasures are you looking to find? Maybe these stories will help you on your journey in finding the treasures untold.

I am the author of one of the stories but still a reader for the others. Therefore, I'm going to break down my review for the individual stories.
The Lily and the Hawk by Gigi Lynn was amazing! I loved Shadi! She was exceptionally well-written. The plotting was clever and captivating. I loved the unique setting and all the characters were well-rounded. I loved it!
Unlocking the Depths by me. I enjoyed writing this story. It took a much different course than I had originally thought it would. I'm really happy with how it turned out.
The Stolen Moonlight by Moniaha Roy was fantastic! I loved the characters and the plot. Rune is a kind prince. He was consistently honorable and I really liked that about him. Mina was so dynamic and gripping. The ending was fantastic as well!
Selfishly by Xiola Bagwell is such an interesting read! I loved how the title is worked into the story. Mayera is a strong girl and I absolutely adored her. Boot was so good and noble, not at all what one would expect from a pirate captain. Such a great story!
The Cost of Treason was very emotional. I zipped through it so fast and I cried. Levi is so selfless and such a great guy. Elara broke my heart. She is so strong but also vulnerable. I am very eager to continue this story!
Feline Felon was a great finale to the anthology! It was so much fun returning to the circus setting from All That Glitters. Leandre was a fantastic character and I loved how she was determined to find justice for the victims of the feline felon. I loved it!
I knew this anthology was going to be fantastic but it turned out even better than I had anticipated! Great job ladies! I'm honored to have worked among each of you!

Six authors, six unique stories of adventure. These are all new to me writers, so it was a great way to be introduced to them. I enjoyed the tales of land and sea with some stories having a very different outcome than I was expecting.
If you are a fan of any of these themes: historical fiction, action, clean romance, and self-sacrifice, you'll enjoy these tales. You'll probably find a new author to add to your reading list. :) I received a copy of the book but was not obligated to write a positive review.

I always struggle to review anthologies because the authors' writing styles are typically quite different. This book is no exception with six novellas centered around the theme of treasure to varying success. My favorite by far was "Selfishly" by Xiola Bagwell. I also enjoyed "The Lily and the Hawk" by Gigi Lynn.
