The Fisherman — Mary Jane Forbes

A Commercial fisherman, one of the most dangerous occupations, Mac Macintyre is critically injured in a storm out at sea. His crew brings him to shore bloodied, clinging to life. When Dr. Maria Grayson operates to save his life, she soon finds herself in his arms violating her rule never to get involved with a patient. But Maria carries a secret-two years ago did she, or did she not, witness a patient being murdered in the ICU? The Feds think she did, and, so it seems, does someone else who is determined to eliminate her. Private Investigator, Elizabeth Stitchway, is cornered by a psychic, who confides that she sees a fisherman fighting for his life, a spirit in a wedding gown giving him strength to battle the waves breaking over his fishing vessel, and a doctor who is in grave danger-ruthless men are out to kill her. Meanwhile, Mac faces struggles of his own-he's about to lose his boat, injuries threatening to end his life as a fisherman, and a beautiful auburn-haired surgeon, whose violet eyes pierce his heart. But Mac's passion for the sea has no room for a woman. Women bring trouble-his overbearing mother, and a bride who left his father at the altar. Can Mac and Maria overcome the obstacles and open their hearts to each other as their worlds collide?
