Erin Mitchell thinks going to South Africa will be the perfect getaway. Then, a flash flood washes away her vehicle and she is stranded. Her rescuer, Nicholas, is unlike her abusive husband. She faces a tough choice. Nicholas also faces impossible choices; his playboy lifestyle may just possibly collide with feelings more powerful than lust.
Passionate but stifled New Yorker Erin Mitchell thinks going to South Africa with her ill-tempered husband will be the perfect getaway to rekindle their romance. But when a flash flood washes away Erin's vehicle and she finds herself stranded indefinitely at a luxury safari lodge, her trip takes an interesting turn. She awakens from a near-drowning to meet her rescuer, Nicholas DeLanoy. This handsome and brilliant billionaire prefers "no strings attached" relationships and makes no secret of his powerful attraction to Erin. In the heart of the South African bushveld, Erin faces the toughest choice of her life. Should she give in to Nicholas's exquisite charms or remain faithful to her husband, despite his abuse? Meanwhile Nicholas faces impossible choices of his own as the lifelong playboy finds himself having feelings for Erin that go far beyond lust. Exotic, romantic, and emotional, Drowning is the captivating story of a woman stretched to the breaking point by the strength of her marital vows and the intensity of her desire for another man.

Jassy Mackenzie was born in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and moved to South Africa when she was eight years old. She lives with her partner Dion, and two horses and two cats. She enjoys traveling, cooking, cycling, and competes in dressage on her thoroughbred. She also loves the energy, danger and excitement of Johannesburg, believing there is no better place for a thriller writer to be, and wishes to share its 'terrifying, exhilarating, essence with readers across the world'. From a book-loving family where TV was banned from the house, she is the second youngest of five daughters. Her mother Ann Mackenzie was a well-known short story writer, and Jassy's sister, Vicky Jones, now living in New Zealand, is a prize-winning author of children's books. As a youngster, Jassy seemingly had an uncanny knack of choosing unsavoury boyfriends who were involved in everything from cocaine dealing to smuggling. Then, she was hijacked at gunpoint outside her home, and had her car taken from her by force. This experience led to her first novel: 'Random Violence'. She has since written several more thrillers, a 'Jade De Jong' detective series, and erotic romances. Combining her writing career with editing a 'Hair and Beauty' trade magazine, Jassy has also had numerous non-fiction articles on a wide variety of subjects published locally, and internationally, over the years.
