Plot Summary of Dancing Waters
"If Sandra Collens knew why Mick Granger quit his job, left Chicago for the cabin in the hills of North Dakota, she would take the call. "He made his choice! I thought he loved me!" She shoves the phone back towards her captain, Joe Kenen. This trip is a chance of a lifetime!

Mick is in the hills trying to find his father's secret, but Stella Sithe becomes more than just his late father's mistress, she becomes his lover now. As he witnesses her murder he is painfully destroyed. To escape the villain he flees to Florida to join Sandra and Joe upon the boat. His jealousy is inherent and he seethes with anger.

There's no choice but to stay on board and watch as their love affair intensifies. Their trip is destined for disaster and there is more than one enemy that wants all three of them dead!
