Title: TIDEWATER INN
Author: Colleen Coble
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
July 2012
ISBN: 978-1595547811
Genre: Inspirational/romantic suspense
Libby Holladay is a restorer and she and her friend Nicole are negotiating to purchase a building on the Outer Banks of Hope Island. But when Nicole arrives to work out the deals of the sale, she is stunned to discover that the attorney on the island is looking for Libby—her father has died and left her a historic inn. A father she thought had died when she was five.
But that’s not all the surprises. Libby also learns that she also has a brother and a sister she never knew existed. And they aren’t at all happy to find out that Libby exists—or that she inherited the inn.
Nicole goes missing and the local sheriff believes Libby is the top suspect, believing she killed her best friend and business partner. Libby tries to prove her innocence but they keep finding incriminating evidence against her. With the help of a local Coast Guard lieutenant, Libby sets out to find her friend—and hopefully the person behind the kidnapping. Libby’s dream come true has become a nightmare. Will she lose everything?
TIDEWATER INN is a contemporary romantic suspense set on Hope Island, but I’m not entirely sure what state it is. Someplace that gets frequent hurricanes. It started slow, but by the end of the first chapter my interest was piqued and I couldn’t put the book down, reading when I should’ve been working.
I thoroughly enjoyed TIDEWATER INN and can’t wait to read the next book in this series, coming in July 2013. I love Ms. Coble’s contemporaries—and it was nice to have an unexpected appearance of Bree Matthews and her search dog in this book. Totally loved it. Discussion questions included. $13.99. 302 pages.

About the Book:
Welcome to Hope Beach. A place of intoxicating beauty . . . where trouble hits with the force of a hurricane.
Inheriting a beautiful old hotel on the Outer Banks could be a dream come true for Libby. The inn cries out for her restorer’s talent and love of history. She’s delighted to learn of the family she never knew she had. And the handsome Coast Guard lieutenant she’s met there on the island could definitely be the man of her dreams.
But Libby soon realizes that the only way she can afford the upkeep on the inn is to sell it to developers who are stalking the island. The father who willed her the inn has died before she could meet him, and her newfound brother and sister are convinced she’s there to steal their birthright. Worst of all, her best friend and business partner has been kidnapped before her eyes, and Libby’s under suspicion for the crime.
Libby’s dream come true is becoming a nightmare. Her only option is to find her friend and prove her innocence, or lose everything on the shores of Hope Island.
