About This Book

Jessica Wakefield and Nick Fox had planned the perfect romantic vacation an intimate week alone, sailing the Pacific Ocean. They didn't plan on having to save a guy from drowning after his boat capsized. They didn't plan on taking the stranger aboard. And when their emergency radio goes dead and the boat's motor cuts out, they're trapped in more ways than one. Because the man they've rescued is no victim.
