Summer Riptide by Barbara Lohr is a fun read, perfect for lying on the beach in summer. I connected with Mandy from the first paragraph. Her throat hurt from singing along in the car and that is so relatable for me. The story follows Mandy who has just returned home to: 1. Care for her mother after she breaks her leg, 2. Help her sister at the family bakery, 3. Deal with the circumstances around her recent divorce. I really enjoyed this book. I would recommend this as a quick, feel good summer read. I received this ebook in exchange for an honest review. ( ) Rebeccabec | Jul 26, 2014 | What a fun quick read!

He was the summer lover who could heal her heart with sunsets over the lake, zinnia bouquets and steamy kisses. Can Kevin Corbin and Mandy Klavis find hope in the future by reliving their past? When Mandy returns to Sandy Shores for a family emergency a lot has changed. She'd been voted the girl most likely to succeed ten years earlier. Her dreams of marriage and a career in the big city didn't deliver. Duty calls her home and Kevin knows all about duty. The town she'd turned her back on still feels like a bad fit until Kevin Corbin stops in the family bakery for a raspberry kolache. Unsettling memories come flooding back. Kevin was the sure-footed quarterback Mandy left behind. Following three tours of duty, he now struggles with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Instead of a wife, he has a one-eyed dog named Rufus. Feeling off balance herself, she coaxes him into helping her remember summers in Sandy Shores. The lake provides refuge but it also presents a danger that could put an end to their dreams.

This was a quick read. I feel like it could have been flushed out more and made into a longer story. The ending seemed rushed, and it felt like there things that were skimmed over that could have gone into more detail. For instance, how was Kevin dealing with his PTSD? There was a brief mention that he goes to the VA hospital, but no mention of the type of treatment he receives.
Overall I thought it was a good story and would recommend to anyone looking for a quick and easy read. (
