Customer Reviews

Reunited and it feels so good... but not enough focus on the main characters!
I'm a big fan of Rad's work... she's a prolific writer and usually a very reliable read. But I agree with Readsalot, Secrets in the Stone was a bit of a disappointment. But the Rad we know and love is back with "Returning Tides", and so are almost all of the characters from the first five books of her "Provincetown Tales" series... literally!

But first the good stuff, I'm a big fan of angsty romances (as my reviews probably well indicate) and the main one is a doozie. Ash and Allie, the primary pairing, have really hot chemistry together as well as all the drama that comes with seeing each other after having broken up and been apart for a long spell. I very much enjoyed their story and wished Rad had focused more on them rather than trying to squeeze in three "secondary" couples into the book.

And, yes, I know that Tory and Reese anchor this series so I expect them to have a presence in all of the "P-town Tales" books, but to give almost equal time to them as well as the other couples as to A&A is just ridiculous. Maybe it's been a while since I read the prior books in the series and this is how Rad has decided she wants it to run, I honestly don't know. I have to admit that I skimmed through most of the book because, frankly, I couldn't have cared less about the "mystery/suspense" plot and I wasn't interested in reading about the secondary couples as much as the main couple.

To sum up, if you want to read the continuing stories of three of the couples from the prior "P-town Tales" books, then, by all means, pick up "Returning Tides." You'll get Ash and Allie's story as a bonus!! Otherwise, it's hard for me to say that it's worth picking this one up just for Ash and Allie's "short" story... although I am going to re-read their parts of the book now, so maybe it is =)

Finally
I have always enjoyed this series, and this book was no exception. After Secrets in the stone turned out
to be such a disapointment, I was hesitant to buy this book, but glad I did. Rad also brings back some of
the old characters in this series, which was fun as well. Quick paced, fun, quite a lot of sex in it compared
to her other books in this chain, a good read.

Old Friends and a Delicious Newcomer
While in Provincetown, it is a special pleasure to read any of the books in Rad's Provincetown Tales series. I was lucky enough to devour Returning Tides while listening to the sounds of Provincetown harbor. In this, the 6th book in the series, we get more of our favorite characters including Tory and Reese, Bri and Carre, Rica and Carter, Allie, and we meet a delicious new character. There's intrigue and romance and of course, with the combination of ocean/water and all those hot women, you get steam...lots of steam!
