A Vast and Gracious Tide by Lisa CarterMy rating: 💛💛💛
Rating 3.5
This was an enjoyable romantic suspense where the suspense will keep you engaged and guessing till the end.
I really enjoyed the mystery and suspense part of the story.
Caden felt very realistic with his struggles to settle back home after the war.
The romance part did irritate me a bit with McKenna making wrong choices when their was clearly dinting between her and Caden.
All in all a good romantic suspense.

About the book:
A murder on the tranquil beaches of the Outer Banks puts two strangers on a path to uncover the truth
Caden Wallis has suffered several devastating blows that have left him reeling. He’s lost friends and now his girlfriend to the ravages of war. He arrives on the Outer Banks for one final mission—to thank the woman who sent him a quilt while he was recuperating from his wounds at Walter Reed Army Hospital.
McKenna Dockery knows all about loss. She lost her mother at a young age, and her father has never been the same since he came home from his own war. She juggles the family business, her ailing father, and an aging grandmother. Much to Caden’s surprise, she is the quilter—not some elderly lady. The quilt was something she’d begun for her future husband but shipped to the military hospital after the tragic death of her fiancé.
When a man is found snared in a net and murdered on McKenna’s property, she and Caden must work together to bring the killer to justice. Each must learn to trust the other, or no one will be safe in the tangled web of conspiracy, greed, and deceit lurking in the tidal marshlands of the Outer Banks. A nor’easter, a sea turtle named Cecil, and a surf-crazy hound named Ginger conspire to bring these two searching hearts together through the vast and gracious tide of God’s love.
