A man running from his past. A woman facing a new future. A voyage neither will forget.

Tragic decisions changed DR’s life forever. His dad was supposed to protect him, keeping him from harm. But hidden family secrets chased DR away instead, and twenty years later the secret still exists.

Now DR focuses on three things: getting away from the do-gooders, starting his own boutique cruise, and losing the taunting voice in his head. And after arriving in Marsala everything is almost perfect, as if a divine hand was helping, but that couldn’t be.

Soon twelve passengers and crew set sail on a thrilling adventure with Steven (DR) Ray, now a world famous archaeologist and confident captain of his own boutique cruise. But their yacht is randomly marked entering the Suez Canal leaving the Mediterranean by a terrorist organization. After reaching Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, pay-for-play terrorists set the plan in motion. And failure isn’t a choice.

Not knowing they've sailed into a deadly game of political cat-and-mouse, DR and a woman passenger with her own secrets battle their demons, and soon begin enduring endless sleepless nights of frightening dreams. Dreams that point to a dangerous destiny, nurturing a secret romance that quickly buds, against cruise rules.

As pirates close in ready to claim their prize DR must confront his past and embrace his destiny before they fight for their lives, or else they will all go down with the ship.

The Obsessed Intentions series is a page turner from debut novelist Lee Wimmer in this nonstop thriller with characters who will steal your heart.
