BEYOND THE TIDES – Liz Johnson

“Beyond the Tides” by Liz Johnson is a poignant tale about the power of love, the ability to face loss, and the power of forgiveness. Meg and Oliver’s story resonates resoundingly in our hearts, as they struggle to come to terms with their future, their own hopes and dreams, and the surprisingly unexpected relationship developing between them. Meg Whitaker has to prove to her father that she is worthy of inheriting the family lobster fishing business, instead of selling it to her high school nemesis, Oliver. With poignant self-discovery, Meg grapples with the past, as she tries to face her lost hopes and dreams head-on. In doing so, she unlocks the door to a brilliant future, which includes a love that she never expected. Meg and Oliver’s flawed and likable characters are caught in a heart-wrenching tale. Rich in beautiful imagery, “Beyond the Tides” proves that the past we so desperately try to escape from may indeed be the golden key to unlock a brilliant future in store for us. Liz Johnson’s stunning tale appeals to all people who want the delightful satisfaction of a good read. I highly recommend this inspiring story!
