Plot Summary of Orchid's Beach
"Author Sarah Letesney's marriage plans to Collin Bitler unravel quickly after his sudden disappearance from their Florida beach home. Her life is saved when she is pulled from her car minutes before the bomb detonates. It is when she finds the purple orchids and seashells that she is convinced Collin is still alive. He used to say, "I found my perfect seashell and her name is Sarah!"

Ron Hitel, her boss, knows too much about Mr. Collin Bitler's illicit business connections, including that Collin has impersonated and stolen his identity. A chilling cell phone message from Ron, "I will never stop looking for you!" is the catalyst that fuels Sarah's venom and with limited choices left she lures Collin into her own web of
womanly deceit.

Ron leaves nothing to chance, but fate deals a blow that Collin will never forgive! He leaves them with an extra nightmare…one they will never forget!
