Review: Cute beach read

Love at High Tide is like a trip to the beach--light, frothy, fun, and over too soon!Coop and Darcy's story was an enjoyable way to spend a lazy summer day. I honestly probably would have only given this book three stars if it hadn't been for two things, though. One: the location, Ocean City, Maryland, is one of my favorite places to vacation. Christi Barth threw in a lot of local references that alone made the book twice as fun to read for someone who's been there. Two: this book mentions my all-time favorite 80s television show. I loved that show more than was probably healthy, so it was just too funny to see Darcy's friend Trina use it as the reason for her latest career choice.Though entertaining, this book is definitely light on substance, however. At times Trina's antics overshadowed Darcy and Cooper's romance, and things are resolved fairly quickly and painlessly at the end. Still, I had a lot of fun with this book. For what it is--a light beach read--it definitely delivered.
