Awake by Elizabeth Graver

The ever-resilient Rick has finally gotten his life pulled back together after his dreams were shattered when his boat, Rick's Place, was destroyed on a reef in Fiji.

Now he is sailing off again aboard his new boat, S/V Casablanca, for another adventure. This time he has Sheryl, the girl of his dreams aboard as well as his trusty companion, Jack.

Join them as they travel to Mexico's Sea of Cortez and Riviera Coast then across the Pacific to the majestic Marquesas, idyllic Tuamotu's and exotic Tahiti. Experience the roller-coaster ride that is the cruising life as Rick and crew alternately bask in the glow of tropical sunsets and battle adversity while meeting a cast of quirky characters along the way.

Elizabeth Graver is the author of Unravelling and The Honey Thief, both of which were New York Times Notable Books. Her work has been included in Best American Short Stories and Best American Essays, as well as in Prize Stories: The O. Henry Awards. She lives in Massachusetts and teaches at Boston College.
