In an instant, wind-swept moment, a routine sailboat delivery for captains Linda and her beau Joey goes tragically awry. In this perfect storm of love and loss, author Marlena Brackebusch's Nightmare Voyage spins a sea-worthy tale of action, adventure, and romance that is at once tender-hearted and full of adventure. A nautical love knot of a story, Nightmare Voyage is sure to resonate with readers seeking adventure and romance both at sea and ashore. While on a job transporting the sailboat Wind Rose from Boston southward in the Gulf Stream, en route to Ft. Lauderdale, lovers Linda and Joey are relishing an idyllic sail off notorious Cape Hatteras. In an abrupt crash, Linda's life is forever changed, as she and Joey fight to stem the flooding water that is filling the Wind Rose, to no avail. Before Linda knows it, she is washed overboard, adrift in the Gulf Stream in the blistering sun by day and the freezing cold at night, confronted by bloodthirsty sharks, rapidly approaching squalls, dire thirst and worst of all, Joey's alarming disappearance. From there, Linda finds her world turned upside down in a tormented hunt for Joey. Rescued by fishermen Eric and Tom, Linda combats hypothermia, nightmares and flashbacks as she works to convince her rescuers of the urgency of locating her lost love. In an unexpected twist, her bond with Eric deepens as he offers her emotional refuge from the trauma. As Linda and Eric navigate the choppy seas of love, readers are taken on a voyage of their own, from Naples to wacky Key West, from Texas ranch country to misty Seattle and the frozen Bering Sea. The emotional terrain is just as vast and varied, as Linda loves, loses, and and may have love on her horizon again. Along the way, a veritable crew of compelling characters, and language rich in knowledge of the nautical world, make for a riveting read that is sure to transport readers to new horizons
