Close to Sunrise — Pat Dalton

Denyse's unexpected inheritance is Sunrise Key off Florida's Gulf Coast, near the islands Sanibel and pirate hideaway, Captiva. There, her management abilities are challenged by a resort in serious decline, financially and physically. Two appealing but very different men -- Wick and Chad -- frequently drop anchor, vying to distract her. As Denyse's deepening attraction to one is jeopardized by the continuing persistence of the other, secretive goings -- on from the sun-drenched beaches to the dark depths of the swamp hint at mysteries deviously guarded by both men. Amid a turmoil of emotion and suspicions, passions could ignite, close to sunrise.
