Sometimes you just have to get away. That’s what Tiffany LeBoeuf intends to do when she suggests a vacation with her father. They’re both still recovering from her mother’s death, and the beach house in San Diego sounds perfect. But it becomes perfectly trying when a scheduling goof leaves her face to face with Eve Danfield, the epitome of mean. The old Tiffany would have bared her claws and dug in. The new Tiff tries—really, really tries—not to be bothered. Not even by the constant references to Eve’s boyfriend, Jeremy, to whom Tiff is not attracted. Jeremy Beckett finds it hard to believe that the sweet and thoughtful women he literally tripped over a week ago is the same cruel bird he’d met over a year ago at his friend Kara’s gym. But this new Tiff is fun to be around, though Eve doesn’t seem to agree. He hopes they can get along out in California . . . and with all the surprises that crop up, he hopes he can keep up—without getting ahead of himself. My first though about Beach Dreams? Finally! I fell in love with Jeremy in Trish’s first two books, The Guy I’m Not Dating and Too Good to be True, and I was ecstatic to finally get his story. Following in the tracks of the bestselling Beach House series by Sally John, Beach Dreams is a witty and heartwarming story about second chances and trusting in the Lord. I got a huge kick out of Tiffany. As a relatively new Christian, she’s full of questions and hesitations that can range from hilarious to deeply thought-provoking. She gives a lot of thought to staying true to her faith and demonstrating it to her family and friends, but at the same time she maintains a light approach to stressful events. Jeremy is, as always, a charming Brit with a comical bent, and I thoroughly enjoyed the peak into his brain as he tried to figure out this love thing—and maybe this Jesus thing along the way. The setting makes this a perfect beach read, and the characters are going to wiggle their way into your heart and have you dreaming about them when you finally put the book down. Though a combination of two series, Beach Dreams is a stand alone that’ll have you looking eagerly for more from this fantastic author.
