From St. Lucia to Ocracoke Island, what brings lovers together is as constant and as ever-changing as the sea.
Each story in the Southern Cross series stands alone, but the characters introduced in Netting Neptune have cameos in subsequent stories. For those who like to read a "series" or a "collection" in the order in which it was written, follow the order laid out below.
And no - the sea god reference has nothing to do with fantasy romance. These are contemporary stories.
