After years of living in Vermont, Lauren is at the Jersey shore for the summer after a devastating divorce, and her house rental appears to be anything but luxurious.

Lauren hasn't been back to Ocean City, NJ since her childhood, and now she has a good reason: to help out at Chipper's, her family's beloved breakfast restaurant.

While she's learning to be on her own again, a handsome, mysterious man living next door piques her interest, but getting a chance to talk to him proves to be difficult.

Meanwhile, working at Chipper's is both stressful and comforting, and when a big decision must be made about the restaurant, she and her family have a lot to think about.

Through it all, she becomes reacquainted with the vibrant and nostalgic shore town and suddenly finds herself falling in love with everything about it.

In Book 1 of the Ocean City Tides Series, get transported to the sandy beaches of Ocean City, NJ, while Lauren learns the value of starting over again.
