The Waterskier

By: Amy Simone

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When loyalty demands the ultimate sacrifice, can a family fractured by silence find the strength to save each other?

Sarah Fontaine knows only one language: perfection. On the slalom course, she's relentless—every turn calculated, every second measured. But when her best friend Nandina vanishes onto a cartel boss's yacht, Sarah discovers that her discipline, her strength, and her obsessive drive are utterly useless.

The rescue falls to the last person Sarah ever expected: her mother.

Diana Fontaine has spent two decades building an empire of silk and strategy in her Lafayette boutique, reading people's desires with surgical precision. To Sarah, it was always frivolous—the gossip, the designer labels, the careful manipulation of Southern society. But when a kidnapping demands not force but finesse, Diana's "soft" skills become the only weapons that matter.

As the clock ticks down and a ruthless businessman plays a deadly game of leverage, Sarah must watch her mother walk into the lion's den armed with nothing but charm, intelligence, and an encyclopedic knowledge of human weakness. In the shadow of a floating fortress, three fractured family members will discover that strength comes in many forms—and that the bridges they've burned might be the only way home.

A heart-pounding thriller about the price of perfection, the power of unlikely skills, and a mother-daughter relationship forged in fire.
