Eric Sumners, a rich businessman in the Pacific Northwest, has it all smart, handsome, successful, and happily married to a beautiful woman of perfect artistic and social taste. One day, on a whim, he decides to give his wife a luxurious sailboat.
But when someone as rich as Eric decides to do something, the side-effects on regular people’s lives can be spectacular.
Suddenly, down at the waterfront, the grandiose opportunity created by Sumners spawns ever-expanding waves of hope, but also conjures up deep currents of jealousy, greed and hidden desire.
Suspense, romantic and professional intrigue, aspirations and dreams, are soon engulfed as The Big Tide sweeps all before it with the promises and delusions of unfettered ambition, passion, art and love.

I chose to buy this book because there has been boat building in the family, and I liked the cover, if not the title. This superficial decision rewarded me with a very good book. You don’t have to be a boat person to enjoy this one. The building of a boat is the intriguing setting for the rich man, the drunk hunk, the sexy secretary, the grumpy vet, the sly coed, the goddess, and the wife to slowly establish a serious house of cards that makes you hold your breath. These characters are not especially likable but you certainly get to know them and can’t help but get involved with their layered entanglements. The politics, business, and relationships are all too real and all too human. The conclusion is excellent, with an unlikely victor and skilled omission of the obvious.There are word and comma errors here but the true detraction is the excess psychology. Every thought and deed is over analyzed and so the reader never gets to do any. The writing is smart and deep, (I used kindle highlighting many times for gem phrasing and truisms), but it’s just too wordy. I appreciate a long, meaty sentence but these were ridiculous. In the author’s own words, “you could go on and on forever, or until you ended up forgetting whatever the hell it was you were talking about in the first place.” (loc 2868) The first half of the book, especially, felt bogged down in philosophical ramblings. But if you can wade through, it is worth it.
UPDATE: I rarely enjoy a reread, but I truly enjoyed this one, even though I knew what was going to “happen”. The author has done a fine revision on this book and successfully improved it's readability without compromising characters or drama. This writing is so rich that it's tempting to read aloud. The story has the unique quality that it would appeal to varied readers and I find I recommend it to both men and women. I also want to note that I do not know or have affiliation with this author.
