Patch: The Story of Becoming a True Salty Dog.

The much requested prequel to The Salty Dog. The story of becoming Patch, and how life hardened him into an angry old sea dog--and the love that freed him from himself. Two women would change his life--the love of his life, Mariah, and Rose, the daughter who came along and gave him a second chance at being a father. Patch resisted them both, but once he opened his heart to them, he freed himself from his self-imposed solitary life. Love was the only thing that softened a hardened heart, even when it belonged to the most stubborn Salty Dog.
