Pediatric surgeon Eden Perez has built her life around maintaining perfect control, hiding the scars of a painful past behind a wall of professional ambition. Returning to small-town Michigan to be closer to her daughter means confronting the messy emotions she's spent years suppressing.
Tate Siren knows all about past wounds. After escaping a toxic relationship that nearly destroyed him, he's sworn off complicated connections—until Eden walks into his lakeside restaurant. She's unlike any woman he's ever met: brilliant, guarded, and impossibly magnetic.
But when a crisis forces Eden to choose between her fears and her family, she must decide if she's brave enough to risk it all for the life - and love - she never thought she deserved.
Set against Michigan's stunning lakeside landscape, STORMY WATERS is a powerful story of second chances, the courage to be vulnerable, and a love that demands everything.
DK Marie’s love for the written word knows no bounds and has been reading since a little kid. She fell head over heels with love during her college years. With a keen eye for the intricacies of the human heart and a passion for crafting tales of unexpected connections, second chances, and the life-altering power of love, DK Marie brings her unique voice to the world of romance.
With seven books under her belt, including six romance novels and one poetry collection, DK Marie has experienced the best of both worlds in traditional and self-publishing. Her readers can’t get enough of her relatable, swoon-worthy characters and the perfect blend of heart, heat, and humor that she infuses into every story. Keep an eye out for her upcoming steamy romance set in her beloved home state, featuring a cinnamon roll hero and a sweet (but delightfully flawed) heroine.
When she’s not lost in the pages of her own stories or those of her favorite authors, you might find DK Marie exploring the great outdoors with her trusty camera, hitting the open road on her motorcycle, or simply curled up with a good book and a steaming cup of coffee (or bourbon). This Michigan native shares her life with her husband, two kids, and a feline writing buddy who keeps her company as she pens her next tantalizing tale.
