Salt on Her Skin

She boarded the cruise as a wife.
She stepped into danger as a woman who finally remembered who she was.

Eleanor Sterling has spent decades doing everything right—marrying well, behaving impeccably, and silencing her own desires to keep the peace. A luxury cruise through the Mediterranean is meant to celebrate her marriage. Instead, it becomes the moment her carefully controlled life cracks wide open.

A quiet knock at her cabin door.
A towel delivery that lingers just a second too long.
A young crewman whose kindness feels dangerously real.

What begins as a forbidden spark turns into a love that awakens Eleanor’s body, heart, and courage in ways she never imagined possible. But passion has consequences. When her powerful, volatile husband begins to suspect the truth, the romance that freed her becomes a deadly liability.

Trapped aboard a floating palace with no escape, Eleanor is forced to choose between returning to the life that slowly erased her—or fighting for the one that finally makes her feel alive.

As obsession turns violent and the cruise transforms into a nightmare, Eleanor’s new lover must risk everything to protect her. Survival will demand bravery, sacrifice, and a reckoning that will leave no one unchanged.

Salt on Her Skin is a gripping blend of sensual romance and high-stakes suspense—a story about desire later in life, the danger of possession masquerading as love, and the breathtaking power of choosing yourself, no matter the cost.

Perfect for readers who love emotional intensity, forbidden love, and thrillers that don’t pull their punches.
