"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"--… (more)

Genre: Mystery, Suspense, Thriller, Christian Fiction.

My Rating: 4 Stars.

Recommendation: 16 up.

My favorite character/s: Ellie is an interesting character in how she treats her sister's disappearance, and how she treated Grayson: seeing as he thought her sister had left, and yet she was friendly because he was a friend's relative.

My Verse for Ellie is Psalm 30:5
For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

My thoughts: I have read a few of Colleen Coble's books although this one was the first one that is a full-length novel that I have read by her. It was fast paced and kept me guessing how it would end. I enjoyed The House at Saltwater Point, but it seemed to end abruptly, too fast, and almost rushed at the end. It was well written until the last two chapters that it seemed rushed. Otherwise, it was a great summer read. ( )

Typical murder mystery-nothing new here. I did not realize it is a christian book.... ( )

This book is suspenseful and romantic and keeps you reading. I like all the characters I'm supposed to like and hate the villains. I'm looking forward to the next in the series. ( )

Much happens in this fast-paced thriller. The author does a very good job of introducing seemingly unrelated story lines and then weaving them together for a cohesive tale. Could there be such strange coincidences and have things work out so neatly in real life? Not likely, but then, this is supposed to be entertaining fiction, and it certainly scores in that category. There are plenty of dead bodies, a missing person, illegal drugs, deceptions, kidnappings, and yes, even romance, enough to keep readers turning pages. It’s a well written tale with engaging characters. ( )
