The Light Over Broken Tide

If you're a fan of books by Emery Lord, John Green, Tamara Ireland Stone, Jennifer Niven, and Kathleen Glasgow then you are sure to enjoy Holly Ducarte's The Light Over Broken Tide. The Book Life Prize says, "The romance that blossoms between Rebecca and Shawn has the intensity and euphoria of folie ? deux. Ducarte depicts how the two characters' mutual desire to escape into fantasy shapes their identities and emboldens their relationship." James Fahy, author of The Changeling Series, says, "Unless you are made of stone, this book should leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, a little heartbroken, and honoured to have been privy to the intricacies of the relationship dynamics weaved in and around this plot." Chandra Claypool, blogger for Where The Reader Grows, says, "This is not your typical YA novel and I suggest you put this on your radar." Synopsis: Out of the blue, Rebecca Stafford's Father arrives to parent her after years of absence. He then extracts her last bit of normalcy by moving them to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. The shocking news plunges Rebecca into a despair that brings about an otherworldly encounter; she begins to have visions of her deceased Mom. Uncertain whether what she sees is reality or the product of a troubled mind, Rebecca searches for an anchor to keep her from drifting in the new coastal town. She clings to Shawn, the eccentric, spritely boy-next-door promising adventures...with surprises of his own, involving an Irish legend and a hidden lighthouse. This brings on a whole new dimension to Rebecca's visions, and sparks feverish romance between her and Shawn. A bond eventually threatened by forces beyond her control, sending her spiralling into dark, stormy places, leaving her to wonder how broken a mind can get.
