Review: Love at High Tide – Christi Barth

Posted August 11, 2013 by Shannon in Reviews / 0 Comments

17903941Darcy Trent is lucky Cooper Hudson is on hand to sweep her off her feet—literally—when she nearly drowns while swimming in the ocean. But life-saving aside, Mr. Perfect’s timing stinks: Darcy’s career is about to take her to the complete opposite side of the Atlantic. Still, a little summer loving with the tall, blond and sexy former cop is far too tempting to pass up.

When his plans to enter the Secret Service went south thanks to a bum knee, Coop retreated to the family beach house to mull his future. Romance is the last thing on his mind, until he fishes a curvy brunette out of the sea. Now, spending time in Darcy’s arms seems like the ideal distraction, even if it is just for a week.

But with Darcy’s departure date fast approaching and their careers on the line, can they realize in time that their beach fling might become the real thing?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

This was a super cute summer read. I loved the setting in Ocean City, Maryland. Two best friends vacationing together at the beach for a week was a nice little fantasy for me to read about. Add to that a hot guy and you’ve got a great summer romance story!

Darcy definitely had all of her ducks in a row–or at least it seemed like it–but her friend Trina’s quirky habit of trying out a new career every month was kind of charming and entertaining. I loved that Trina got a little zany & took straight-laced Darcy right along with her! Thank God Coop always comes to Darcy’s rescue. His life-saving skills come in handy quite a few times throughout this book. Coop also some other VERY valuable skills….I’m just going to say, he and Darcy are lucky they didn’t slip in the shower.

I would recommend this book. It would be a great beach read. It was a fun story–it contained some “serious” issues to keep it interesting, but not so much that it weighed the book down.
