Hello. I am writing to promote my e-book “Lost at Glassy Sea”, by Germanio Puglio. It is a historical Romance/Fiction. It is only $.99! Here is a short description:

What does an old journal, a mermaid, a pirate ship, a murder, and a stolen painting all have in common? They are all in this book! When Alexandra discovers an old journal, her life irreversibly intersects with its writer. This is a fun story. Appropriate for ages 17+. Some mature content. New edition contains “Lost at Glassy Sea: Part II”.

Monique Roffey, finalist for the Orange Prize for The White Woman on the Green Bicycle and winner of the 2013 OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature. I gave her latest, Archipelago, 4 stars.

The Reef by Nora Roberts is set in the Caribbean. The book has a bit of a love story and a sense of adventure with the treasure hunting.

Earl Lovelace; author of The Dragon Can't Dance, Salt, and my personal favorite from him; This is Just a Movie. From Trinidad and Tobago.

Junot Diaz, author of "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" and "This is How You Lose Her". He is pretty good, have won some important prizes in literature. Lin-Manuel Miranda likes him, so you know he is good.
