Savage Tides Survival and Desire

SAVAGE TIDES
A Novel of Survival, Desire, and the Courage to Break Free
When luxury and survival collide, who will you become?
Eliza Harrington has perfected the role of the trophy wife, her life a carefully choreographed dance of charity galas and high-society expectations. But beneath the glittering surface of her Manhattan existence, she feels trapped in golden handcuffs—a beautiful prison of wealth and privilege that slowly suffocates her true self. For years, she's buried her dreams beneath designer gowns and practiced smiles—until disaster strikes.
A violent storm transforms a luxury sailing vacation into a fight for survival as Eliza finds herself shipwrecked on a deserted island with:- Her hedge fund magnate husband, Richard, whose ruthless business tactics now emerge in their battle against nature- Marco Delgado, a mysteriously overqualified crew member with calloused hands, keen survival instincts, and eyes that see through her façade- The unforgiving wilderness that strips away pretenses and forces each of them to confront who they truly are beneath the trappings of civilization
As the veneer of sophistication peels away, raw humanity emerges—both beautiful and brutal.
Richard's mask slips first. The man who commands boardrooms with iron control now reveals a darker nature—his desperation to maintain dominance turning increasingly dangerous as days turn to weeks with no rescue in sight.
Meanwhile, under Marco's patient guidance, Eliza discovers:- Hidden reservoirs of courage she never knew she possessed- The exhilaration of learning to fish, build shelter, and read the island's secrets- A growing confidence in her own voice and desires after years of silent compliance- A soul-stirring connection with Marco that awakens parts of herself long dormant—a passion built not on dependency, but on mutual respect and shared resilience
With each sunrise, the island remakes her. The manicured nails break, designer clothes fray, and something wild and authentic emerges from within. For the first time in years, Eliza feels truly alive—even as danger mounts.
But when a distant ship finally appears on the horizon, Eliza faces the most difficult choice of her life:- Return to the security and luxury of her gilded cage in Manhattan, where wealth buffers all hardship- Embrace the uncertain path of freedom and passion she's discovered on the island, risking everything she's ever known- Find the courage to become the woman she's discovered herself to be—regardless of where that journey leads
