ANNA
FORTUNE is a government intelligence analyst who longs for
tropical sunsets, early morning beach walks, and a man bold
enough to steal her heart.
SONNY CAY
is a large, lumbering toilet paper salesman with a terminal
disease, unpaid medical bills and the haunting memory of
a girl he lost years ago.
She knows
the location of terrorist cells, corrupt politicians and
that no man can be trusted to keep his word, wedding date
or promise to love forever.
He knows life
is for the taking, love for the making and both end all
too soon.
So when Anna
is ordered to protect a presidential candidate polling in
the single digits on a fund-raising junket in the Bahamas,
both get a second chance at true love.
He came because
he loved her, because all those years ago, she'd stirred
him the way no woman ever had. She was his Mt. Everest,
the pinnacle of his small world. His head told him to run;
his heart made him stay. Now only the gale force winds of
a "Bahama Breeze" can cool the white-hot embers of old flames
erupting.
When
you have nothing left to lose, dying for the one you love
is easy.

If you drowned and the sea spit you out, thrusting
you back into an age of pirates, buried treasure and beauty
beyond belief... would you stay?
RICKY BRADSHAW has never sailed the Caribbean Sea,
searched for buried treasure or battled pirates on the deck
of a Spanish Galleon. He's never fallen through the floor
of Davy Jones' locker, befriended a witch doctor or watched
an old fisherman morph into a porpoise. All Ricky knows is
his lonely life with his widowed mom in a tiny apartment overlooking
a marina on the Chesapeake Bay.
But all that changes on a snowy Christmas Eve when Ricky's
apartment building burns down and he falls into the chilly
waters while trying to save BARNACLE, a mangy mutt
with shrimp breath. Suddenly Ricky finds himself confronted
by his neighbor, a young woman in a pink bathrobe who jumped
to her death in order to escape the flames. She offers him
a choice: go with her to a wonderful afterlife where snowflakes
taste like candy or return to the dreary old world he knows.
Ricky picks the past and awakes on a raft in the middle of
the sea where there is surprising beauty on every island,
danger around every corner and great honor and glory ahead
of him... if only Ricky can summon the courage to survive

the character’s development, and creates suspense
(introduces a new wrinkle that leaves the reader hanging).
Learn the three keys to scene summary, how to create memorable
moments in your story, what 4 questions you should ask of
each scene.
