About the Book: Tiffany LeBoeuf recently lost her mother to cancer. Still grieving, Tiffany seeks rest for her body and soul at a cozy beach house in San Diego. A scheduling mix–up causes a double booking, and Tiffany ends up sharing the house with a woman named Eve. When Eve’s boyfriend, Jeremy, arrives to surprise Eve, he’s surprised to see Tiffany as well. He settles in at the beach house next door, and what happens after that surprises them all.
A fun, contemporary romance about how God uses even our mistakes to bring about His divine purposes. Beach Dreams is the perfect get–away read.
My Review:There’s still some summertime left and if you live near the ocean you may have a few more beach trips planned. May I recommend bringing along Beach Dreams? I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started this book, since I had not read either the previous novels in this particular series or the other books Trish Perry had written. However, that was not important at all. I immediately liked Tiffany and Jeremy both and was excited to see who they would be brought together.
Can I just say the time on the beach sounded heavenly? The fellowship the characters shared and the fact that I know Mission Beach is gorgeous just made me wish for a summer vacation like theirs where strangers become the best of friends.
There were plenty of life lessons to be learned for the characters but this story is delivered with heart and humor and perfect to escape the summer heat with.

This is one book that I’ve wanted to read since I first spotted it.

This sounds like a wonderful series. What are the other 2 in this series called? I collect books that have coastal locations and i’d like to get these.

Thanks so much for the kind review! Lori, the other two books in The Beach House Series are The Beach House and Castles in the Sand, both by Sally John. A fourth, Sunset Beach, is scheduled for a June 2009 release. And if you read Beach Dreams and enjoy the characters, you might enjoy reading about their circle of friends in The Guy I’m Not Dating and Too Good to Be True.
So many books, so little shelf space!
