Welcome home, lost fragile souls. Find solace in casting worldly troubles away to my blue tides…so sayeth the Ocean.
Attending the wedding of two close friends, as well as seeking to cleanse her troubled thoughts, Lauren is drawn back to her beloved beach house, just north of Cape Hatteras, by the lure of the ocean’s blue tides. Spellbound by the echoes of crashing waves and the unexpected sight of a soaring kite, she makes her way down to the beach. There, she encounters a message in a bottle in the form of a carefree younger man.
Drawn in by Brody’s free-spirited presence, Lauren forgoes her intended solitude by inviting him in. As their weekend together passes, to each other they reveal how carelessly they were “cast away” by those they loved. Their mutual attraction fuels cravings to be desired once more, yet the depths of a secret she initially withholds from him, clouds their future together.
Will she accept salvation from his message in a bottle…or cast him back to the blue tides?

This book is perfect for a short romance read any time of the year. Love abounds yet lovers can be afraid of what’s to come, especially if cancer is involved. Relationships on built on firm foundations are the lasting ones. This couple almost reached a firm foundation but with illness and uncertainty mixed thought processes can be skewed.
