About this ebook
Florida, 1942. While her brother Jack rushes to enlist, Annie Jeeves is content working her family's charter fishing boat and waiting tables at The Deck. She's just a small-town girl who happens to be good with charts and navigation.
When tragedy draws her into the civilian U-boat patrols, Annie discovers an unexpected truth: she's exceptional at war. Her cartographer's eye spots what others miss. Her artist's hand draws intelligence that saves lives.
Success brings complications in the form of two men who see different futures in her charts. Finn Taggart, no longer the safe boy from her past but a passionate man who knows exactly what he wants. And the enigmatic Will Hersey, a man she pulled from a flaming wreck with stories that don't quite add up.
Through tragedy, betrayal, and a love that nearly slips through her fingers, Annie evolves from a fisherman’s daughter to wartime cartographer, from Florida girl to an Army WAC on a secret mission to seize Nazi map data from behind enemy lines.
For fans of historical fiction and strong female protagonists, this book is a must-read. Don't miss out on this thrilling and emotional ride from the beaches of Florida to the smoldering ruins of Frankfurt.

About the author
I love sailing, books, travel, and adventure! So, I think I have the greatest job in the world - I get to write stories full time.
My husband and I have sailed our boats across the Pacific, Atlantic, Mediterranean, and the Caribbean, and we have traveled thousands of miles in our converted ambulance/RV. It can be a challenge to write on the road, but it's the life that suits me. Nothing like bartering in the Medina in Tangier or watching whales from a beach in Baja California to spark the imagination.
My most recent book is WHISKEY CREEK, a World War II novel that tells the story of one young woman who becomes the captain of her family's boat and patrols for U-boats off the coast of Florida.
I don’t know if I’ll ever be certain whether it’s my adventures that shape the tale or the tale that shapes me. But I do know this: I’m going to keep on living these adventures (with our two Havapoo pups Razz and Zoë) and writing the stories that come out of it all.
Fair winds!
