After The Tide by Lindsay Harrel Review

Good Morning Everyone :)

I hope you're all having a great week so far, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess.

For today's post, I'm featuring a novella by one of my favorite authors, Lindsay Harrel. This particular novella was free for her newsletter subscribers, and I highly recommend checking it out if you get the chance.

After the Tide by Lindsay Harrel:

Source: Free with author's newsletter

Publication Date: 2019

Genre: Christian Fiction

Synopsis:

Project manager Elizabeth Wildman is all about careful planning and predictability. That's why she can't understand how she managed to get herself stuck on a tidal island in Scotland the night before her cousin's wedding. She'll have to rely on a handsome Scottish fisherman to help her get back—and maybe learn something about herself along the way.

My Review:

If I'm being completely honest, I'd probably read Lindsay Harrel's grocery list if she ever chose to publish it. Her books are always heart warming and heart wrenching, and I can never put them down once I start them. So when I heard that she had a new novella that was free for her newsletter subscribers, I literally squealed, and couldn't wait to start reading it.

After the Tide may be a short story, but it's classic Lindsay Harrel, and is full of feel good moments, heart wrenching moments, and a romance you can't help but root for. I gobbled this story up in one sitting, and loved every precious moment that's included in Elizabeth and Callum's story. It's primary focus is on a chance encounter between two strangers, and following your heart even when it may be scary to do so.

While I'm not usually ever a fan of insta-love, I really enjoyed the way that this one is written with a hint of something more to come between the two main characters, and I enjoyed where the author chose to take the story.

I honestly think this could have been a full length novel and it still would have had me wanting more!

I loved it to bits and pieces, and can't recommend it enough. And it's a bonus in that it'll tie us all over until Lindsay's next book release!

Final Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thanks so much for reading guys! Have a great rest of your day :)

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books . For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often.
