After hours of fighting a raging storm alone in the Bahamas, Elizabeth is relieved when her husband finally emerges from below deck to help. That is, until he pushes her off the sailboat and into the turbulent waters…
Luke thinks he’s rid of Elizabeth and free to start fresh with another woman when she disappears into the ocean. But Elizabeth miraculously survives the storm and is rescued. She chooses not to press charges against Luke, instead letting the fear of retribution haunt him.
Back on land, Elizabeth’s career in public relations flourishes as she excels at crisis management for high-profile clients and earns recognition for her innovative work. But her resilience is tested by assault and discrimination in the workplace, and by a move to the Northwest with a charming man who turns out to be a manipulative sociopath. After a harrowing escape and a fresh start in Colorado, Elizabeth's past with Luke resurfaces dangerously, forcing her to fight for her life. Navigating work and personal challenges, Elizabeth discovers her true strength, inspired by the natural world—and a significant encounter with a barracuda.

With a journalism degree and a successful career as a creative communications professional, Beth McKnight raises public awareness of issues affecting people's health and welfare. She was a newspaper editor, transitioning to public relations agencies and corporate PR, before starting her own business representing space-research centers, healthcare systems, an engineering college, and a housing authority providing affordable housing to low-income families. She enjoys hiking, camping, paddleboarding, and birding with her husband and their dog in her home state of Colorado, and her love of nature permeates her work.

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
