My Debut Update:
THE YOU I USED TO LOVE
is out on submission!
OUT ON SUBMISSION!
Jenny's optimism to a fault keeps her marriage together, but she's growing weary of sweeping problems under the rug. Her husband Cal, a gaslighting narcissist, doesn't fit under the rug so she does what any woman would do in her situation; she convinces him to take sailing lessons, sell the house, buy a boat, and sail around the world with her.
What choice does Jenny have but to believe their sinking marriage will right itself, Cal will forget his pregnant mistress, and they''ll get home in time to spend Christmas with their twin daughters.
She'll get to the bottom of Cal's secrets, but he doesn't budge, retells his lies, and Jenny locks him up in a hull compartment. She'll free him when he confesses. But storms rage in the big open ocean and she has to trust her training, taking brave steps to save the boat and think about saving Cal.

About
Karin Lee Swart
Hello: I'm a Debut Author, recently signed with an Amazing Agent and am so Thankful.
Welcome to my page.
I moved to the Crystal Coast (Eastern North Carolina) last year with my husband and youngest son. I consider myself a southern Yankee (born and raised in Vermont) but I love the water and warm weather. I'm a certified sailor and have been sailing the ICW and east coast for a short time. I enjoy golf, tennis, and pickleball, when not sailing. I've been writing for myself and family/friends since I was a child and now that I'm almost a full on empty nester, I have time to dedicate to my true passion and calling. I'm a US Navy veteran, a certified sailor with almost a 1,000 nautical miles in my logbook so far (I know, not a lot, but I started a year and a half ago). ​
Other WIP or Completed WIP Fiction Novels:

Lyla finds him twenty five years later only to discover he has cancer. She can rekindle with the love of her life or keep her heart from shattering again by losing him a second time. Think P.S. I LOVE YOU meets DYING YOUNG.
