especially since Quintessa Beaumont, a woman far too pretty for her own good, is constantly crossing his path. A Navy lieutenant with his sights set on eventually becoming an admiral, Dan is dismayed when he's assigned to a desk job at the Anti-Submarine Warfare Unit in Boston. The novel continues the story of the Avery siblings, finally telling oldest brother Dan's story. When Tides Turn, the third and final book in Sarah Sundin's Waves of Freedom series, is set mainly in Boston in the early 1940's. Could this fun-loving glamour girl really be the one? When Dan is shipped out at the peak of the Battle of the Atlantic, he finds himself torn between his lifelong career goals and his desire to help the beguiling Tess root out a possible spy on shore. Convinced that romance will interfere with his goals, Dan is determined to stay the course, no matter how intriguing a distraction Tess is.īut love, like war, is unpredictable. The last thing he wants to see on his radar is a girl like Tess. Dan Avery has been using his skills in the fight against German U-boats and hoping to make admiral. Perhaps there she can convince people that there is more to her than meets the eye. Eager to do her part for the war effort, she joins the Navy's newly established WAVES program for women.


Tess Beaumont is tired of being thought of as just a pretty face. In a time of war, sometimes battles take place in the heart.

and, happily, that's exactly what I found with When Tides Turn. I was absolutely ready for another "I love this book so much and I can't put it down and I wish it wouldn't end" kind of read. It's not that I haven't read enjoyable books, but I've only had three 5-star reads so far this year, and I finished the last one ( For Love & Honor) at the end of February. Lately, I've been in a bit of a reading slump.
