Book Beginnings and Friday56
Firstly, how gorgeous is this cover!
Beyond the Tides
About the book:
When Meg Whitaker's father decides to sell the family's lobster-fishing business to her high school nemesis, she sets out to prove she should inherit it instead. Though she's never had any interest in running the small fleet--or even getting on a boat due to her persistent seasickness--she can't stand to see Oliver Ross take over. Not when he ruined her dreams for a science scholarship and an Ivy League education ten years ago.
Oliver isn't proud of what he did back then. Angry and broken by his father walking out on his family, he lashed out at Meg--an innocent bystander. But owning a respected fishing fleet on Prince Edward Island is the opportunity of a lifetime, and he's not about to walk away just because Meg wants him to.
Meg's father has the perfect solution: Oliver and Meg must work the business together, and at the end of the season, he'll decide who gets it. Along the way, they may discover that their stories are more similar than they thought . . . and their dreams aren't what they expected.
Bestselling author Liz Johnson invites you back to Prince Edward Island for a brand-new series about family, forgiveness, and the kind of love that heals all wounds.
I imagine there must be a lot of emotions with that kind of backstory! I do love the dad's solution though, very Solomonic and very wink wink, nudge nudge as well! I hope you continue to enjoy it and that you have a lovely weekend :)

DeleteI love this cover, and I was looking at this book just yesterday . Sounds like I need to go back and download it!
ReplyDeleteHere is my teaser: https://twogirlsandtheirbookishlife.blogspot.com/2021/08/book-beginnings-on-friday-before.html
Yes, the cover definitely drew me to the book. Glad it did.
DeleteSounds like a great story. This week I am spotlighting a book from deep in my TBR pile - More Than Fiends by Maureen Child. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful cover! I can't relate to Meg though, as I'm a morning person. :-) Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteStunning cover. I'm also a morning person, but starting at 4am feels a bit early!
DeleteMy first line comes from Crossed Lines by Jennifer Delamere:

Mitchell B. Harris, better known to readers of the Era as Our London Correspondent, leaned casually on the desk of John Munson, toying with his cane while Munson chuckled over what he was reading.
Sounds interesting
DeleteI totally agree with Meg. Morning always arrives too early for me. Thanks for sharing! Hope you have a great weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteYes! Especially during cold winter mornings!
DeleteYou had me at "Prince Edward Island". I've only read Anne of Green Gables set there. My Friday quotes from the Tattooist of Auschwitz
ReplyDeleteI read her first series set there as well and also enjoyed it a lot!
