Beyond the Tides by Liz Johnson kept my interest the entire read. While some of the script was predictable the intrigue of how the characters came to terms with past wrongs felt authentic. The feel of the lobster fishermen community was brought to life. Details to the work, skill and dangers gave a perspective to the importance of the legacy Meg's family had maintained and why it was so precious to her. Johnson did a good job to show the family secrets or sins do not have to frame who you become. As Oliver learns to become his own man and Meg learns to see beyond childhood impressions they grow into God's grace for themselves and others and even find romance.
I received this book from the publishers but was not required to write a positive review.
