According to the book description of To
Ride a Hurricane, it “is a twisted love story set amidst the intrigue of a spy novel, filled with action
and adventure. Gloria is the consummate Coast Guard Master Chief, a hero and legend, her private life a disaster. Avoiding
relationships because of failed love and rape, she lives in her work, but her career is soon to end. Bill is a retired cop
living day to day in a lukewarm marriage; an explosion changes that. His family thinks he’s dead. Sent on a mission
for the government, he rescues POWs from Vietnam, steals $200 million, and then sets off a nuke under a mosque. On Sentry
Island, Bill’s home, a hurricane forces Bill and Gloria together. They want to fall in love, but first they have to
overcome the storm and their pasts; the hurricane was the easy part.”
