BLUENESS continues Kat Jensen’s adventures in the Aquamarine Sea series. But it’s not the turquoise Caribbean hue you might be dreaming of right about now. This one is a cold, dark, and dangerous North Sea voyage from Denmark to England in November, and Kat definitely wasn’t too happy about it. If you didn’t read AQUAVIT and want to dive straight into BLUENESS, you shouldn’t be lost or need a life raft.
AQUAVIT, the first novel in the Aquamarine Sea series, tells the story of Kat Jensen, a restless NYC businesswoman, eager to go away on a once-in-a-lifetime bucket-list vacation on an old sailing ship. For more information, refer to the other webpage on AQUAVIT.
The Aquamarine Sea series is concluding with two novels: AQUAVIT and BLUENESS. If you are disappointed not to hear what happens next, my third novel PROJECT ONION won’t let you down. New challenges face Kat Jensen back at work in New York City, but she’s in recovery mode after such a long sea voyage. I really hope you will enjoy what comes next!
Here’s a short video from YouTube about what happens in the Aquamarine Sea series.

And for those interested in finding out about the King of Denmark cocktail, watch the video from my YouTube channel. In Chapter 5, Kat tries this drink for the first time with the captain and second mate. The results that follow are disastrous for her. But don’t worry she’s pretty tough and manages! I can assure you, I’ve had no ill effects. Hint: Add more water! P.S. Most Danes have never heard of this drink, but I found it online and it tastes great!
