Tidal: A Novel

I really really enjoyed this book. I fell in love with Cooper! Cooper is a hot surfer from Australia and Willow is a struggling actress with her own issues also...together they help "fix" eachother. I'm so glad this book has such a good ending.

I loved this book. Emily Snow is a talented writer. I couldn't put this down. I had to read this slow as there was so much to this story I wanted to comprehend every part of it. I highly recommend this book.

So yeah that ending made me cry! Loved every moment. Willow was great dealing with everything that happened to her and the fact that she didn't let it drag her back down. OMG !!! Cooper so sweet and hot.... Loved him the most!

Enjoyable read during the holidays about the life of a washed up actress who meets a gorgeous ' Australian' and falls in love. Both characters have dirty secrets which I did not see coming which was a twist in the story.

Loved this one! Cooper is beyond sweet and I really liked Willow too which is rare. At one point in every book I get annoyed with one of the main characters not in this one! Loved the writing and the end... OMG!

Love Willow and Cooper. Some of the story had some surprising twists and that was a nice change. It is a sweet story and has a HAE in the end but there is definitely some turmoil that the characters go through.

I just love Cooper. The chemistry between Cooper and Willow is something they can't deny no matter how much they want to. This is a great story about mistakes, loss, the human spirit, and unconditional love.

AMAZING!! Willow and Cooper`s love story was well written and SIMPLY beautiful! No cliffhanger at the end or sorry you loved the book but now you have to wait 6 months for the sequel! It ended perfect!!!

I loved this book! It sucks you in with wonderful, deep and human characters. As humans, we are all flawed and scarred in some way. From strong attraction, to struggling with the pain of the past, the characters in this book battle their way thru to finding a tru & lasting relationship.

Tidal is a wonderful love story about two people that need to figure out who they are. My heart broke for Willow and her messed up life. Cooper is just WOW! This story will make you mad cry and laugh!

I really enjoyed this book. The only thing semi-negative I can say, is that I wished the book included in the epilogue about the little boy. (Trying not to spoil anything for those who haven't read tidal yet!)

Tidal is a story about self-discovery and redemption both for Willow and Cooper. The writing is exquisite, the characters come alive so much they could walk off the page, and the love story is amazing. I would totally recommend this book!!

I only read this book because Emily Snow pictured Liz Gillies to play the main character. As I was reading it, she was right. Liz is perfect for the part. All in all the book, plot was really great. Worth the read.

Loved her first book (Devoured) and this one did not disappoint. Considering this is her sophomore release (she's 26!) & the fact that I could not put it down I found personally impressive. I cannot wait to read her next release!

Well written, well thought out story line and executed perfectly.
The only reason I gave it four stars instead of 5, is because I would have loved to see willow give a certain double crossing witch a taste of her own medicine lol ;)

Great book! Only 4 stars simply because it took me a bit to get into it. While Cooper ended up being the kind of guy I would like to have, the back and forth of his like/dislike at the beginning was a little exhausting. Overall, I loved the ending. Definitely worth reading!

I love this book. Its full of everything. Love, drama, romance, and some part was very sad. It was like really watching an actual movie by just reading the words. Emily Snow, I really enjoyed this book and I can't wait to read another one of your books.

At first I thought this would be another cheesy book all about sex. It was not, the twists came and left me speechless. And that ending! Man that ending was beautiful. This book, the story shared will stay with me. And that ending still has my eyes watery. Amazing.

This book starts out really slow and boring, personally I didn't find it to be very believable and the characters were not very genuine which is why I only give it three stars but it does turn around and have a beautiful emotionally daunting ending that is five stars!!! Definately worth the 99 cents and the first 100 page slump to see the ending to a great story!

My Synopsis: Willow, an actress with a rocky past, walked out of rehab ready to start all over. To walk away from the pain she left behind, the temptation of the drugs that numbed her, and escape from the life that put her there. However, her parents had other plans and instead of starting over, she ends up getting another acting role as a surfer in Hawaii and is being thrown back into the public eye again. Broken, emotionally and financially, she reluctantly takes the role. Upon the first meeting with the director, she meets Cooper- the cocky Australian surfing coach who openly hates the Hollywood life and looks at her with disgust in his eyes...and desire. There is unexplainable chemistry between the two, even though his number one rule is to never date his clients. All she wants to do is forget her past and numb her pain. Will the two of them succumb to the undeniable force between them? Or will she go back to the same coping mechanisms that have always failed her in the past?

My Review:

Cooper and Willow meet early on in the book and you can feel the tension between the two. Both have had shaky pasts and start to find comfort from each other. However, Willow has a lot of insecurities and the media, as well as her friends and family, are counting down the days until Willow screws up again. For the first time in her life, Willow starts to feel acceptance from the unlikely person in her surf instructor Cooper. However, both have secrets that they are keeping from one another and Emily Snow leaves you wondering what they are throughout the whole book. I gave this book 3.5 stars. It was an easy read and Emily Snow did a good job letting the reader feel the emotions that Willow experienced. However, I felt that Willow and Cooper had an instant love relationship and after the first 12 days together, most of their interactions were almost always the same.

I chose this rating because there wasn't a moment I wanted to put this book down. It's extremely romantic and hands down one of the best books I've ever read. Tidal captivated me from the very beginning. I'd recommend this book to any person who enjoys reading a romantic love story. This book consists of feelings, emotions, and realistic situations that everyone can relate to. I absolutely love this book.
