Tempest Tossed: a Love Unexpected Novel
“I could see El Loco listing to one side out on the rock I would later learn was called the Islet of Torrais.

She’d take my father’s ashes with her along with several works of art I treasured far more tenderly than his memory.
A few short hours after I buried Lady Delaney, the skies cleared and the night mocked us with a bright half moon and thousands of stars. Rene burrowed against my side and fell ...into an exhausted sleep not long after we finished our really nasty MRE’s. They might have been ‘ready-to-eat’ but they sure weren’t ready to enjoy.
Rene smelled of salt water and monkey pee. Her hair was sticky against my face and the way she wedged herself against me made it difficult to sleep. So I didn’t. I spent the dark hours thinking and questioning and finding no answers. By the time the sun rose, I was stiff and sore and in a foul mood.MoreLess
