Average rating4.3
"The dangerous beauty of Lavender Tides is harboring secrets that reach around the world. Ellie Blackmore is making a name for herself as a house flipper. But when her sister Mackenzie disappears, Ellie can't focus on anything but uncovering what happened. Her only clue is the bloodstain on the deck of Mackenzie's boat. Ellie knows her sister isn't on the best of terms with her ex-husband, Jason, but he wouldn't kill her--would he? Coast Guard intelligence officer Grayson Bradshaw believes Mackenzie faked her own death after stealing a seized cocaine shipment. The problem is convincing Ellie, who seems to view him as the true enemy. Both Ellie and Grayson want truth, but truth--and family--is often more complex than it first appears. From international terrorism to the peaceful lavender fields of Puget Sound, The House at Saltwater Point is a thrilling race to uncover the truth before it's too late"--

This book kept me interested from page 1. The story has a good balance of mystery and romance. There were a few questionable statements in the dialog between several characters, but it was overall an interesting book. I enjoyed reading it.
I would have given this a 5 however I could not understand why 1 minute the main character was grieving because her sister was missing and the next day the main character was at an auction bidding on a house to restore. That really threw me. The author should have moved up the bidding for the house before the mystery start about her sister. The book has a few other characters who are involved in the mystery and some surprises also. I will probably try another of Colleen Coble's books in the future! - DN
3.5 stars, rounded up
Though I didn't like it quite as well as the next in the series, it was definitely better than the first in the series. This one's about Grayson finding out he's got two biological sisters out there and trying to help Shawna track down their baby sister. He's got a crime to solve and he's very interested in the pretty woman mixed up in the crime, so he has to ensure she is innocent and safe.
I liked both characters even though I didn't completely fall in love with them. A solid mystery with a pleasant Washington-state setting.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required.
