A Murky Water Marriage

"Murky water" is a common English idiom that describes situations that are complex, uncertain, or unclear. It often signifies difficult circumstances that require careful thought and consideration due to the lack of clarity or predictability.

This describes the fourteen-year marriage of Walker and Stephanie Cross perfectly. But it wasn’t always that way. For the first five years of their marriage, they led an idyllic life. Successful careers, financially secure, a beautiful young daughter with plans for more children, and a bright future ahead. 

Then, the sacrifices began.

Believing that his wife has been unfaithful, Walker sacrifices his pride and personal happiness in order to remain in his daughter’s life. Due to her own feelings of betrayal, Stephanie sacrifices her happiness and all intimacies with her husband by holding him hostage with the threat of divorce and the loss of his daughter. 

Their daughter, Mindy has had to cope with her parent’s pain, fear, and confusion for most of her life. With the help of a new friend, Mindy devises a scheme to bring her parent’s issues to the surface. False accusations result in truthful awareness of the “catfishing” hoax targeting the Cross marriage. 

Who did it? Why would someone want to tear them apart? Who could benefit from Walker and Stephanie getting divorced? What will they attempt to do if they learn that their scheme has been detected? Can the Cross marriage be salvaged, or has too much murky water passed under that bridge?

Surprise after suspenseful Hitchcockian twist weave throughout this exciting heart stopping tale as Walker and Stephanie Cross try to recover their marriage before any more damage can be done to it by person, or persons unknown. 

Humorous and teasingly erotic moments allow your heart to calm even as your temperature rises.
