The Barefoot Tides Series Two Book Series Boxed Set ~ A Barefoot Tide and A Dancing Tide
 
 
 
From rural Virginia to coastal Carolina ~ Sometimes the biggest risk is in playing it safe…
 
 
 
Lilliane Moore leaves the forests and rolling hills of her rural Virginia hometown, Cub Creek, to accept a temporary job as a companion to an elderly man who lives at the beach.
 
 
 
It’s a risky move that’s out of character for her, but her thirties are passing quickly—she feels like she's closing in on forty fast—plus she’s got a hole in her roof and no AC. The big payday she’s been promised for this short-term assignment will fix a lot of what’s wrong in her life. The job is at the beach in North Carolina, in a place called Emerald Isle at the end of the Outer Banks. She’s never seen the ocean before and she’d like to, but what's the catch?
 
 
 
Because there’s always a catch, isn’t there?
 
 
 
Taking a job in a home with someone she doesn’t know and so far from her own home may be a risk—but the biggest risk for Lilliane may be the unexpected—including leaving the home and hometown to which her heart and past are irrevocably tied, and to which she must return—no matter what happens while she’s away.

A Barefoot Tide

A Dancing Tide, the second book in the Barefoot Tides two-book series, continues the story of Lilliane Moore of Cub Creek in rural Virginia, who accepted a temporary companion job for ninety-year-old Merrick Dahl of Emerald Isle, North Carolina—and discovered it’s not always so easy to go home again. That if you do, you’ll find your life has changed in unexpected ways.
 
 
 
How do you put the pieces back together? Should you try?
 
 
 
Lilliane accepted the temporary job because she needed the cash, but the biggest payoffs were the new friendships she made and the realization that she is more tied to protecting her family history and homeplace than she’d ever understood. Now she wants freedom to travel and make changes in her life, but she is torn between that desire and needing to do right by her deceased parents and their memory—most specifically, protecting the numerous sculptures her father crafted in his workshop before his death twenty years earlier. The workshop can’t stand forever, and she, herself, is almost forty. What will become of her family home and treasures if something happens to her?
 
 
 
She can’t be in two places at once—helping Merrick at the beach and in Cub Creek protecting the homeplace. Whatever choice she makes, she risks failing everyone—her friends, her family and herself, and her future.
