About the Book From Shore to Shore

Book: From Shore to Shore

Author: Tabitha Bouldin

Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Release date: May 31, 2022

Can one captain show her the deep love of the ultimate Captain without falling in love himself?

Bree Jamison comes to Sparrow Island for one reason: to study coral reefs. She’s not interested in happily-ever-after and certainly won’t allow her handsome boat captain to sway her into believing these islands are different from any others. But when she finds an old shipwreck and learns the history of pirates and treasure, Bree finds herself searching for something that always feels just out of reach.

Cooper Carmichael takes the job as boat captain for the enigmatic Bree to further his career. He never expected her to be so driven—or so painfully opposed to God.

All Cooper wants is his happy island life. He wants for nothing. In fact, he’s made it his mission to be content. In every aspect of his life. Bree throws a wrench in his plan as her presence pushes Cooper to want things he deems unnecessary.

A man striving for contentment. A woman who believes God is picking on her.

It takes one to show the other that no matter which shore you find yourself on, God got there first.

Read the next Sparrow Island novel in the Independence Islands Series featuring five islands, six authors, and a boatload of happily-ever-afters.

My Thoughts on From Shore to Shore

I love this series!  I have enjoyed every single book I’ve read in it, and I’ve read them all.  Normally you get a teaser for the next book in the back of the one you’re reading and I always hate that I have to wait for that new one to be released to read it. 

I want it now! 

I need to know what comes next! 

These characters are my best friends now and I have to know what happens!

Don’t understand what I’m saying? 

Have you ever read one of the books in this series? 

Start with this one then.  It’s good.  I really loved that Bree had a cameo in one of the previous books but that cameo is mentioned in this book so you’re not going to miss out. 

While this is a series and I always advocate reading a series in order you can read this book on its own.  It won’t hurt you.  You’re not going to miss out on any of the main points.  There are characters from previous books and you learn their stories in their books, but not knowing that won’t make this book not make sense.  

Have you ever turned your back on something? Decided it’s not for you because you were hurt by someone who liked that activity?

That’s kind of what’s going on with Bree and Christianity.  And also with Cooper and dating/getting married. 

Can they both put aside their prejudices and see what the future could possibly hold?  

This was a fun book to read and I enjoyed getting to know these characters.  I can’t wait to see where they end up and how the sea takes them on adventures.

More from Tabitha

Writing in the Independence Islands series has been a true blessing, and From Shore to Shore is no different, except that these characters brought out feelings that I never expected.

Most of the time, when I go into a story, I know a bit of what’s going to happen. I already understand the characters’ backstory and what has driven them to this point in their life where I’ve picked up their tale and begun to weave it into a book.

Bree decided she wanted to go another route.

Cooper didn’t want to talk to me for half the book.

Christian walked onto the page and tried to take over because he didn’t want to wait for his turn in book five.

These characters, I tell you what, they’re a demanding bunch.

Finally, though, finally they settled in and told me their story.

You might remember Cooper, he’s Mel’s brother and he showed up in book one, Mishaps off the Mainland. Cooper is a delightful yet careful captain who delights in the open ocean and loves the islands.

Bree is a tangled mess of consternation. She scorns love and believes it to be a trap. Even God’s love is suspect in Bree’s eyes.

These two are imperfectly suited for each other, but God has a plan to help them both, and He helped me through every page of From Shore to Shore, a story that shows no matter how far you run, no matter what shore you find yourself on, God got there first.
