Beyond the Rising Tide by Sarah Beard

About the Book

Kai met Avery only once--in the moment he died saving her life. Now when he's not using his new healing powers to help people, he watches helplessly as Avery's life is unraveled by his death. To help her, he risks everything by breaking the rules, dangerously blurring the barriers between life and death.

Sarah Beard’s Beyond the Rising Tide is an imaginative and emotional read, full of romance, sacrifice, and healing. Main characters Kai and Avery are connected to each other by a single tragedy - but there’s a catch: she’s alive and he’s dead. As they take turns sharing their first-person perspectives, their unlikely story deals with pain and guilt, sacrifice and healing, love and hope. As I read, I couldn’t help but stay intrigued about how the relationship between Kai and Avery would form and grow, and I really enjoyed it. Interested readers, be sure to check out Beyond the Rising Tide this summer.

Thanks to Singing Librarian Book Tours, I received a copy of Beyond the Rising Tide and the opportunity to provide an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review, and all the opinions I have expressed are my own.
