Where the Tide Meets the Sand

By: Aaron McLean

Narrated by: Andi Eloise, Savannah Thomas, Joe Arden

A breathtaking beach romance with a shocking plot twist! If you love second chance romance, small-town love stories, and vacation romance novels filled with passion, heartbreak, and fate, then this emotional pause-resister is for you.

Jaxon Stone has built a life in Oak Island, North Carolina, one of the most beautiful beach towns on the East Coast. A successful financial advisor by day and the town’s most eligible bachelor by night, Jaxon has long accepted his routine—until one fateful day at Atlanta’s airport changes everything.

Claire never expected her two-week summer escape with her sister and friends to turn into something more. But when she meets Jaxon, their chemistry is undeniable. What starts as a steamy beach romance quickly turns into something deeper, forcing Claire to make an impossible choice: stay on the island with Jaxon or return to the life she left behind.

When the sun sets on their vacation romance, Jaxon is left shattered—two weeks of love and passion turn into seven years of heartbreak and unanswered questions. But just when he thinks he’s moved on, an old friend resurfaces with life-altering answers.

“Timing is everything. That’s what people really mean when they say things happen for a reason. Timing is the thread pulling everything together, or unraveling it when you least expect it.”

I really enjoyed this one. Jax and Claire seemed to be heading in the direction of their HEA during the girls two week vacation, but then she up and just leaves. They keep in touch for just a bit and then things fall apart. My heart hurt for Jax. Things happen that you don’t see coming and years later we find out what all took place and really changed the outcome of this story. It’s sweet and sad and will make you mad. But in the end I really enjoyed seeing how it all ended.

“You don’t have to believe in fate to be wrecked by it.”

OMG the story is so good!!!

I was hooked from the beginning and all the feels I felt throughout the story ahhh so good!

Loved it!!

This was a beautiful story with some spice and a twist I didn’t see coming. With the beach setting it was the perfect summer read. Joe Arden, Andi Eloise and Savannah Thomas did an amazing job narrating. They captured the characters personalities, emotions and even the southern accents so well. I absolutely loved it! It was so well written and I can’t wait to discover more from this author.

Great storytelling

I can barely put into words how fabulous I thought this story was. Add in Joe Arden, Andi Louise, and Savannah Thomas, and I was entranced. This was a loopy and wild story that was told with so much emotion. I normally don’t like third person POV, but when Joe is the storyteller, it’s hard not to fully immerse yourself into this world. I never expected the big twist, but I liked Sara more from the beginning, so I was glad they ended up together. This is a cute story!

Beautiful

this was such a beautiful story. thank you for sharing it with the world
