On a Turning Tide

THE SIXTEENTH CLIFFEHAVEN NOVEL BY SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR ELLIE DEAN

We absolutely ADORED this latest addition to the series… an easy writing style that grabs your attention from the start and keeps it throughout the story.

I have fallen in love with the setting and the characters and all the various strands of the story. On a Turning Tide was another story to relish in the Cliffehaven series and I raced through it in as few sittings as possible.

I loved On a Turning Tide, it is such a poignant, gripping and often thought-provoking story. The Cliffehaven series continues to guarantee a heartwarming, absorbing read and I can't wait for the next instalment, With Hope and Love, later this year.
