Seven More Days
Nikolay "Nick" Sidov has had a tough life. High on drugs for many years, he's finally decided to become clean and sober for once in his life. Not sure that Miami is the best place to get sober, though. Instead of falling off the wagon right away, Nick meets an amazing stranger who he clicks with right away.
Cristina Morales is a few credits shy of her Psychology degree from The U - University of Miami. While getting her daily coffee and pastalito fix from her favorite Cuban cafe, she meets Nick. He's kind and affable. And very open. She doesn't flinch when he tells her about his stint in rehab. He doesn't seem to mind when she tells him her father is in prison because he's major criminal.
They click, for some reason. And it looks like the two of them are finally going to have their own happily ever afters.
That is until the car accident on the Seven Mile Bridge, a dead man, Cristina's kidnapping, oh and Nick's subsequent arrest for murder. How can he get out of this situation and find Cristina? After his father bails him out, he has Seven More Days to rectify this problem before the FBI takes him into custody.
Eight is Not Enough
Single mother, Marta Ryan, owns Saddle Key's most upscale restaurant. Her idea to bring the poshness of her old restaurant in New York and the laid-back feel of her new home in Saddle Key, make the place the talk of the town. She even adds the famous Key Lime Pies from Milly's to the menu. Because it's a Saddle Key staple.
She's alone one night when she hears noises in the alley behind the restaurant. When she sees a man and four children eating out of her dumpster, she knows she has to take care of them.
The man tells her he only speaks Spanish. His kids are beaten. He is beaten. But he's clinging to something that catches her eye. A piece of a gold coin. Pieces of Eight. She remembers that story from the Pirates Movies. But why is this man holding it? Is he searching for a treasure?
