Upon a Mystic Tide

Victoria Barrett. St. Martin's Press, $5.99 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-312-96038-4

""Sometimes you have to leap upon a mystic tide and have faith the sand will shift and an island will appear"" is the message sent telepathically to Bess Cameron, a radio psychologist whose divorce is about to become final. She's still in love with John Mystic, her soon-to-be ex, but his interests lie elsewhere--or so she believes. A meeting at the Seascape Inn to finalize the property settlement agreement brings Bess and John under the charming matchmaking wings of ghost-in-residence Tony and the inn's owner, Miss Hattie. Though beautifully written, this third Seascape Romance, as with many series installments, does not stand by itself. Best to begin with Beyond the Misty Shores, the first book in the series. (Dec.) FYI: Seascape Romance books are written alternately by Victoria Barrett and Rosalyn Alsobrook.
