But if Will Edenshaw cruises off on her yacht, Nellie will have him arrested for grand theft! And Will hasn't the heart to foreclose on a homeless, jobless widow. But once at sea, life aboard the Isadora becomes perilous. Will's in hot pursuit, and there's no place Nellie can run and hide from her heart. But there are also others in pursuit—a grizzled old sea dog and a bald-headed man with a gun—and Nellie and Will don't know why. But as they venture into rough waters, it's evident that whoever's in pursuit is dead set on seeing Nellie... dead. 63,470 words
An author for both Harlequin and Avon-Harper Collins in the past, Patricia Watters lives in a little hand-built log house located in the woods of Oregon. Although writing romance is her number one love, over the course of her lifetime she's had laying hens, ducks, milk goats, horses, and umteen cats and dogs; she's designed, built, plumbed, and wired three houses, been a professional photographer and written numerous photo essays for national and international publications, and she slept outside under the stars for one whole summer. Although she spends most of her time living a life of romance and adventure through her fictitious characters, she shares the "real" world with her husband, two cats, and a German Shepherd who thinks her sole reason for being on earth is to play ball.
