Between the Tides

St. Ninian's Sanctuary Book Six

Cover of Between the Tides

The island will never be the same… 

Felicia is on the island to watch her cousin Lynn marry one of the island pilots. Barry is on the island to give his mother-in-law a chance to refresh and recharge, knowing caring for his wheelchair-bound son is wearing her down.

Or so they believe. Perhaps God wants Felicia’s childhood wounds to heal. Perhaps he wants her to touch a boy trapped in a broken body and a broken mind. Perhaps Barry is here for his own heart, which shut down after the accident that killed his wife and damaged his son, the accident he believes was his fault. 

Or perhaps it’s even bigger. Perhaps they are here to reach the soul of an island that’s floundering. For months  the sanctuary has fractured and gossiped and torn people down, and this family might be the catalyst for change for an entire island’s future. Even at a devastating cost.

St. Ninian’s Sanctuary series, small-town contemporary Christian romance with a mysterious island twist.

Jill's Notes

  • If you missed it, between this book and the last, Below the Ice, is a ‘hidden’ St. Ninian’s book, Call the Dawn, which is the second book in the two-book volume Border Crossing. The first book is in the Casa Flanigan series. It’s not essential to read that one before this one, but there is one tiny scene at the end of this that makes a little more sense if you’ve read Call the Dawn.
  • I love that this book involves the wedding of Jake and Lynn, who played prominently in the second book of the series.
  • Barry is a complex character, and peeling back his layers was very satisfying.
  • Includes a later-in-life romance subplot.
  • This book is in Kindle Unlimited.
