Turning The Tide by Phoebe Alexander is book 5 in the Eastern shore swingers series. The book was captivating. Just like the others.

This can be read as a standalone. Okay now let me start with my thoughts on it. Omg!! This was a new kind of book for me. I haven’t ever read a swingers book, thought I might hate it but on the contrary I enjoyed it a lot. I enjoyed the story line of this book; it wasn’t just an orgy fest. I honestly felt bad for the guy in this book. I also loved that you find yourself hating on his wife making his situation and the fact that he finds someone so much better. There was a mystery to this story line as well, and to me that’s probably what kept me wanting to finish it so soon. If you are wondering about the sexual scenes, let me just say they are steamy. I would have loved to know more on the ending and know what happened with all the bad people. I’m twisted but I really hated his wife and I wanted and hoped to see her destroyed, sadly it doesn’t really touch up on her misery if any. It was a hea, so no worries there. I would totally pick up more books from this author.

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander is another great addition to this already great series. I enjoy the stories Phoebe gives us of the swingers and the characters are familiar and loveable. The books can be read as standalones but I suggest you read them in order to understand the characters and how they got to where they are now. They each feature in all the books in one way or another.
Connie left her cheating husband and moved back to be with her sister, the fabulous Casey. Connie is not a swinger and not part of that lifestyle but everything is sexy, hot and definitely makes her curious. When she meets Luke at the club things definitely take a turn for the better but not before his life falls to pieces.

This is hands down one of my all time favorite series! Each book is beautifully written. The characters are amazing. It’s always like coming home! The one thing I love is that yes it’s a series about swingers but the stories are spell bounding and emotional. It’s not all sex but there are some truly steamy sexy times.
Luke is in the worse loveless marriage. OMG every time his wife was in a scene I literally got all stabby! He’s a good friend of Cap’s and was invited to the club where he meets Casey Fontaine’s sister Connie. The attraction was instant but both people have major hurdles to overcome.
This book had so many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. The blooming love between Luke and Connie was beautiful and the drama will have you on the edge of your seat. Phoebe Alexander is a beautiful writer who is the master of sucking you into the world she creates!

Turning the Tide (Eastern Swingers Book 5) Phoebe Alexander 5 out of 5 Stars
Turning the Tide is another perfect addition to the Eastern Swingers series. Phoebe Alexander has once again delivered a page turning story with captivating characters and a rich storyline. It is hard for me to put into words just how Turning the Tide (and the rest of the Eastern Swingers series) makes me feel. Phoebe Alexander is incredibly talented in her writing with a clear goal to deliver body positive as well as sex positive stories that leave you feeling like you met several new friends in these characters and said friends just “get” you. While sexy like all of Phoebe Alexander’s writing, Turning the Tide tackles adult issues that in many circles are taboo to talk about, alternative lifestyles, abuse, infidelity (to name a few) in a way that is comfortable and intriguing. I can’t stress enough that you should read ALL of the Eastern Swingers series, preferably in order. It is not necessary, in fact I’ve jumped around a bit but each book gets better than the last and seeing how each character’s lives are woven into each other’s is a fun addition to the storylines. As always, I look forward to reading more from Phoebe Alexander.

Turning the Tides is book 5 in the Eastern Shore Swingers Series by author Phoebe Alexander. These books can be read as a standalone, as each book follows a new set of characters. Phoebe Alexander continues to wow me with her writing style, incredible plot/storylines and even better characters. Each time she writes another book I continually get captivated and drawn into each read and don’t want to put it down.
Turning the Tides tells us Luke & Connie’s story. This book has sexiness, its steamy theres action and of course an amazing connection between the two characters that you cant help but wish they get the HEA they both deserve. Both of these characters are relatable and lovable and when you are reading their journey, you feel as though you are there right alongside them living the story yourself.
This was another addicting read to this series and one that shouldn’t be missed! I can’t wait to read what else comes from this series and this author.

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander
I loved reading this wonderful addition to an already wonderful series. These books in this series can be read as a standalone and you can also read them in order as some of the characters show up in each of the books. This is Luke and Connie’s story and there is a lot of different emotions throughout their story. There is suspense, funny moments, steamy moments and so much more. The swingers group are close knit group of friends that are like family and there for each other it times of need. I really enjoyed reading this story and I couldn’t put it down till I found out where these two end up. I found myself rooting for Luke’s happiness as he has been through alot. I don’t want to give anything away so I just want to say that it’s a definite must read and I highly recommend this book and this wonderful series.

Turning the Tide is the fifth book in the Eastern Shore Swingers series. It can be read as a standalone.
Having read the previous books in this series, I’d say this one is different in that it is less about the swinger lifestyle and more about Luke and Connie as a couple. The previous books were more about how the swinger lifestyle affected and influenced the relationships, this one is more about how it facilitates the initial meeting of Luke and Connie. I liked the BDSM aspects of this book, but I found myself conflicted about the book in general. I can’t really get into any further detail about that or I’ll ruin the story line. Overall it was an entertaining read. The story moved along at a nice pace and there were a couple of unexpected twists. I don’t feel like this story was a strong as some others in the series, but it has some juicy moments.

Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander is book five of the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. These books can be read in any order but characters from previous books do make appearances.
Luke feels stuck in a hopeless situation. He really doesn’t see any hope that it will change. He gets invited to the club and that’s where things might start to change. Connie doesn’t participate in the lifestyle but likes to spend time at the club with her friends. She feels an instant connection to Luke but then she finds out about his baggage. Is their connection worth the trouble it’s causing?
This book was so good and probably my most favorite out of the series. Luke is such a great guy trapped in an impossible situation. The characters in this series are all unique but very relatable. I like that the characters make appearances outside of their own book. They are family. This book was an excellent read!

I give Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander, 5 stars.
This book was absolutely amazing! I originally picked this series up because I live on the Eastern Shore and let’s face it, there are not many fiction books about this area. But I was pleasantly surprised at just how good each book has been. This being book five in the series, there is a potential for things to get stale, it happens in some series. But that is not the case here. The main characters are so great, you can’t help but love them. You can really understand where Luke is coming from and you can understand why he falls for Connie. There are many emotions as well as surprises you will not see coming. I could not put the book down!
This a romance with some hot and heavy scenes and with the series revolving around a swingers club, so if you are not opened-minded, this may not be the book for you. But of you are, you need to pick up this book as well as the whole series. The author is exceptional and weaves a wonderful story you won’t want to escape from.

Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander a five-star read that will turn you. This is the fifth novel in the Eastern Swingers series, but they can all be read as stand-alone, they truly can as I have read most of them out of sequence. Luke is a very deep character and one that will at times make you question what you believe but then also feel a deep sympathy for him. Connie was a great woman, she makes reading her story easy. This is a complex love story, and as with true love, it never goes smoothly, just creates more passion and drama. The question is will it create a happy ending? That’s something I can’t tell you as you need to read this amazing story to find out.

Turning The Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers #5) By Phoebe Alexander 4 Stars!!!!
Another trip into the swingers and I wasn’t disappointed. The author really has a unique style and brings in a bit of drama to add to the story. I really enjoy how she manages to bring the lifestyl into light and how tastefully she does so.
I found myself really routing for Luke as you can see that he is in a bad situation. The chemistry between Connie is so explosive. The drama that unfolds in Luke’s life really adds to the story and the irony of Connie being the new nurse was just the best twist to the story. I really was on the edge of my seat as I read this book with the acts of his wife and practice partner it was such a twist. I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be reading more from this author and this series.

Turning The Tide is the 5th book in the awesome Eastern Shore Swingers series by Phoebe Alexander. I have loved this series so far but have to say that Turning The Tide has been. By far, my favourite book in this series. Having been ‘the woman scorned’ I wouldn’t have thought that I’d have sympathy for a man cheating on his wife and wanting to give him a massive high for doing so but this book brought out so many emotions from me. Highly respected ENT doctor, Luke Cannon has not had sex with his wife for 10 years. Not only no sex, but no touching, kissing or cuddling. Nothing. Nada. To top it off his wife Barbara is a complete grade A bitch treating him like a doormat. Her excuse – sex is to painful and she is disabled. So it’s no wonder when Luke’s patient, Cap Sheldon invites him to the swingers club he owns, Luke decides, after much persuasion to go along and see what it’s all about. His life is about to change in a major way when he meets the lovely Connie on his first visit to the club. To his horror, Luke then discovers that Connie is the new nurse his partner Jim has hired. There is a no fraternization policy at their business. That however is the least of Luke’s worries. Barbara is behaving strangely and Luke discovers major discrepancies in his finances. What follows on is a fantastic story filled with so much mystery and suspense. In a true Eastern Shore Swingers book, it’s also filled with some very HOT sex scenes. This book is a definite page turner. I was glued to it and just couldn’t put it down. I have to say that I adored the character of Luke and Connie and even though Luke is a married man, I was rooting for him to cheat on his absolute bitch of a wife. She doesn’t deserve and amazing man like Luke. This series has brought me much enjoyment in the last year and I’m so glad to read in the notes at the end of the book that the author plans to add more books to this series. They will definitely be getting added to my TBR list and I’d recommend this series to others. It’s a must read.

Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander is the fifth book in the Eastern Shore Swingers series. I love that Connie got her own story after meeting her her earlier in the series.
There were some hot moments between Luke and Connie, but what kept me glued to the book was everything going on in Luke’s life, both personal and business. Not sure why that grabbed me the way it did but I’m not going to complain.
Luke is a sweet man who has had life give him one too many bad hands, but his luck seems to improve when he meets Connie. But does it really?
Connie has to learn to trust again after her ex-husband destroyed every bit of what she had.
This is a great story about two mature adults getting a chance to get the love story right. It could be read as a standalone but I would recommend you start at the beginning of the series. You won’t be disappointed.

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers #5) by Phoebe Alexander
Four Stars
These stories get better each time. The author has a way with making you laughing the most unlikely situations. The author is also taking something many people look down on and making it no big deal. We all enjoy our company and pleasure different ways so accept it and move on. I really like Luke. He is such a sweet guy. I felt sorry for him through most of the book. He deserves a HEA. Connie was a good character as well. I really liked the action parts and the drama. Everyone has a crazy person in their life Luke happened to marry his. The story gives you a look into a lifestyle that we look at as wrong. He paints it as a community of friends who happen to enjoy watching and switching partners. I don’t think I would partake but I understand it a little more. Review by @gguerrero89
Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers #5) by Phoebe Alexander 5 stars
Another great read in this series! While this is book 5, it can be read as a standalone. We do see previous characters but each book is about a new couple.
Where do i start? I do have to say that as I was reading, I had my doubts on if I would like where this was heading but then I had to take a break (kids lol) and when i came back I had a new outlook. How would I feel if this were me or my husband? While it would be very hard I couldn’t tell you what we would do unless we lived it. This was a great story and I really enjoyed the drama and the suspense. Can’t wait for more of this series!

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) By Phoebe Alexander. Once again this author takes my breath away with her words! Without fail the author takes readers on incredible journeys with the wonderful characters and amazing storylines that are written. These books can definitely be read out of order and as a stand-alone but I do highly recommend the entire series as each one is incredible. The connection and emotions written into this story grabbed my heart and won’t let go. The characters Luke and Connie immediately drew me into their story and I stayed there well into the night because I simply couldn’t put it down. I’m giving this story a five star review and highly recommend it!

Turning the Tides was a great 5 star read and book five in the Eastern Shore Swingers series. Phoebe Alexander has once again pulled me right in with her writing, I was an emotional mess by the time I was done.
Luke is in a marriage that has no emotional or physical connection other than the abuse from his wife Barbara (who I despised very much). When his friend invites him to The Factory, a swingers club he meets Connie. There is something about her that draws him in, it’s been a long time that he has felt anything like what she brings out in him.
Connie has moved to Ocean City to be near her sister. When she meets Luke at the club there is something about him that gets her attention. Fate brings them together again when Luke meets the new nurse at his practice. Where will they go from here? Can Connie help Luke forget all his problems?
Overall I really enjoyed this book, Connie and Luke were great for each other. We get all sorts of great scenes with these two. The secondary characters were great, some I liked some I hated. This can be read as a stand alone, however I suggest reading all the books so you can connect with all the characters. I highly recommend this series. I look forward to reading more from Phoebe Alexander.

5++++++ Stars
Good Lord this author has me so confused..Pretty sure this is my favorite of the series then I start thinking about the others and think, no maybe that one was, no im pretty sure its this one…The bottom line is this series simply ROCKS!!
I can’t put into words what it is that draws me to every book in this series, especially when the lifestyles that are portrayed throughout are just not something I understand or am I interested in. I think it’s the characters this author writes about, I get so emotionally invested in them and no matter what I fall in love and that is all due to the talent of this author.
This storyline was awesome, it tackled a type of abuse I have never read before, and also had never thought about but this felt so real as per normal when reading anything by this author. Luke is now one of my favorites in this series, my heart broke for him and I couldn’t help but just want to hug him!
I’m just not going into too much of the storyline, I went in blind as I do most of her books now because if it has her name on it, it’s just a given I’ll read it. Trust me when I say this was an awesome story and addition to this series and I also couldn’t help but jump for joy at having another character back at The Factory after being afraid she was not going to return, and thats all Im going to say about that LOL
Read these books, I promise no matter what genre you do or don’t read they are worth every minute spent, yes they could all be read as standalones I suppose but Im so so glad I didn’t do that, having all the history of all these names that keep popping up throughout each book makes it that much more awesome!
Loved it and hoping for much more from these people and this author 🙂

This story gives another view into marriage, BDSM and just being a decent person. (Some of my favorite things!)
Luke is a married man. His marriage, like every marriage, has had its ups and downs. But unlike every marriage, Luke’s wife is unstable and there seems to be more to their situation. Their marriage is in the toilet before we even get to met them, so what is really going on?
Connie, not Luke’s wife, is herself divorced and learning to have fun and to trust men. Her ex-husband hurt her emotionally so she’s not ready to fall in love.
When Luke and Connie are convinced, by different friends, to visit a swinger’s club called, The Factory, they learn many new things.
“We have a real mix of people, of ages, sizes, colors, politics, backgrounds. It’s like once we get naked, we strip all those differences away. Underneath we’re all just human.”
Wouldn’t it be nice if the whole world worked this way?
If you are looking for some hot and spicy sex scenes with consensual adults, then you should pick up this book. Alexander has written another great story in her Eastern Shore Swingers Series, in fact you should check them all out, starting with Book one, Fisher of Men.

And again another FANTASTIC 5 star read from this author! Every time I read a new book by Ms Alexander I think this one can’t be as good as the last one I read and I love that I am always wrong! Every book of this author’s that I have read I have absolutely adored, even if it’s not a particular thing I love to read about like m/m or m/f/m – there is just something about her writing that never fails to pull me in, Her characters are brilliant and always so different and in Turning the Tide this was no different! I loved Luke and Connie and I know I probably shouldn’t have loved Luke he is probably everything I dislike in a male lead, he did things I didn’t like and don’t approve of but Ms Alexander made me fall in love with him. She made me see that there are things that go on in people’s lives that we have no idea about and you definitely shouldn’t judge what people do or don’t do. I really took these characters in to my heart just as I have with the others from this series and it was lovely to see some of them again! This story could be read as a standalone but by reading the previous ones you will understand all the different relationships between the characters. I recommend this series 100% and Turning the Tide is a fantastic addition to it. As always I cannot wait to read whatever this author releases next!!

Turning The Tide ( Eastern Shores Swingers Book 5) By Phoebe Alexander. This is the 5th book in the Eastern Shores Swingers Series and it does not disappoint. Its the story of Luke Cannon who feels like he’s never going to feel intimate or love ever again. I fell in love with Luke and I would have gladly loved him. He’s had a hard life and he’s about to give up. Then he meets Connie who is independent, caring and compassionate. Sparks fly and he thinks maybe just maybe he can have love and happiness again. This book is full of sexy swinger stuff and I have loved this entire series. There is a swingers club in Ocean City, Maryland where love is free and sex is fun. Read Turning the Tide to see if the Tide really will Turn for Luke!

5 Star Turning the Tide(Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander is a wonderfully written book and the fifth in the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. I’ve absolutely loved this whole series,I recommend reading the first four books if you haven’t already. This story had me turning pages I had to know what happens next. Luke Cannon is a man who pulled at my heart strings as I read about his life,he he also a man who wonders if he’ll ever experience love or intimacy again. I kept hopping he would find happiness He meets a woman who is kind,caring and compassionate. Get ready for a bit of an emotional rollercoaster ride with this story with a side of hot and steamy!As I’ve already said I highly recommend reading not only this book but the first four as well. I look forward to seeing what she comes out with next.

I want to start this review with a caveat: There is a subject matter in this book that is a hard no for a lot of readers. It is not a hard no for me, so I didn’t care. While reading it, I had to reverse the genders to understand what was going. I consider myself a pretty forward thinking human, but this story tripped me up and I’m ashamed for that. Once I was able to settle in, I enjoyed the story very much.
I have enjoyed this series. It’s nice to see characters we’ve met in the past make appearances again, and with the other stories in this series – all is not as it appears to be.
This is a multi-layered suspense with twists and turns and great energy. No words are wasted and each character plays an important role in the unfolding story.
As with all of the other stories in this series, it can be read as a stand-alone because it has a very clear beginning, middle, and end. The plot moves at a great pace and I was able to stay engaged in the story from cover to cover.
I recommend this story, this series, and absolutely this author.

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers, #5) by Phoebe Alexander was another wonderful addition to this addicting series.
The latest addition to the Eastern Shore Swingers, and I must say Phoebe Alexander has done it again. I’m normally not a fan of the cheating husband plot line, but man oh man, if you met his wife, you’d understand in a heartbeat. Plus his situation, and the complex mess his wife manages to weave them into was something else. If anyone deserves to be happy and loved it was Luke.
I want to say that this was one of the best in the series, but it’s hard, because all the books in this series is fun, well written and the mix of vibrant, unique characters brings this series to life unlike any series I have read. If you’re looking for a fresh, out there read, I highly suggest you get your hands on not only this book, but this series.
So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that you will fall head over heels, and rooting for Luke and Connie

Phoebe Alexander has once again left me in awe and quite frankly at a loss for the correct words to fully express just how much this book was amazing. I won’t be sitting her and divulging storylines or details and reeling you in with that, for all of those goodies I highly, highly recommend you go grab this novel! (Grab the whole series and start with the first book, Fisher of Men, if you haven’t for the ultimate reading enjoyment!) Instead I am going to tell you all about how much this book has helped me become more well me, as much of the Eastern Shore Swingers series has.
Yeah, yeah so don’t read the book/series if you are sketchy or nervous with alternate lifestyles and the activities that often accompany grown adults in the bedroom. Alexander has never not warned ahead. Don’t let it stop you if you are just a tad unsure but curious though, because these books are the perfect way to peak that curiosity. I truly enjoy and appreciate that so much realism and effort on the part of Phoebe Alexander goes into each and every one of these novels. This is raw, real, emotional, and unique. This is human life, and so often we have books, magazines, television, movies etc. that airbrush and fine-tune everything so we really don’t ever have all the real life stories to fully relate to. YOU WILL NEVER FIND THAT WITH A PHOEBE ALEXANDER NOVEL. Frankly, I love that. Turning the Tide was no different. The topic of infidelity is never a subject that is easy to take on, let alone one that can be written so darn objectively with such prose as this. A hundred kudos for this! I completely understood so much, connected to these characters and felt it so much that I could probably blabber for days about all of them and the reasons why. Instead, I will part with you my favorite tagline and a great one really to sum up this book, so fitting, and hope that you too enjoy Turning the Tide as much as I did! Thank you for another fantastic read Phoebe Alexander!!

Turning The Tide is Book 5 in the Eastern Shore Swingers Series by Phoebe Alexander and this author has hit the jackpot with this series. Each book gets better and better. Once I saw this book, I knew I needed to read it ASAP! Turning the Tide was a little different from the others in the series. Some of it reminded me of Paisley and Calvin’s book with all the crazy action. This book has so much going on and I just kept reading and reading. There was never a dull page. Luke Cannon is a ENT doctor who happens to be married and pretty good friends with Cap. Luke’s marriage isn’t anything to write home about. His wife is verbally and emotionally abusive. I’m not sure why Luke had stayed with his wife after the last 10 years of torture she has put him through. He manages to stay faithful even though he was miserable. He finally gives in the Cap’s invitation to go to The Factory. He meets Connie the first night and cannot seem to get her out of his mind. There’s a lot of back and forth between Connie and Luke once she finds out he is married but he tries to let her understand his situation. This book has so much going on, it’s impossible to not LOVE IT!!! Your going to have to read the book to find out just how much action there is. Another amazing read! Well done Phoebe!! Cannot wait for more.
Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) By: Phoebe Alexander 5 out of 5 stars
The story Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander is a romantic suspense book. It is the next wonderful story in a series that I have loved since reading the first book. The story is entertaining, romantic, and also had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. I loved reading about the character of Luke Cannon. He is a man that wonders if he will every experience intimacy or love again. Luke is a character that I grew to care about and I found myself wanting him to find happiness. My heart hurt for him as I read about his life. Luke meets a woman who is independent, caring, compassionate, kind, and beautiful. Read this book to find out what happens next. This is a story that is emotional and mine went up and down the entire book. There are flirty and dirty talking as well as steamy moments that make the temperature in the room rise. I love that this series has characters that are familiar as they have been brought forward from previous books. You can feel the bonds of friendship and the feeling of family between them. I was drawn into the story from the beginning. Don’t miss out on the latest story in a series that includes an exciting club for swingers. Highly recommended reading.

I never expected to enjoy this entire series as much as I have. Phoebe Alexander is such a fantastic author. I love her voice and take on life and love. This latest installment in her Eastern Shore Swingers series continues the excellence, wittiness, and creativity I have come to expect and enjoy. The characters are relatable and flawed. The situations encountered feel realistic. Overall, another winner from Alexander. Loved it.

I loved this book! One of the things I love about this author’s books is how she is able to pull me into the story, make me feel as if I am part of the story and this story is no different. This is a well written, creative story that kept me engaged until the end. In this book we get to see Luke and Connie’s story. They bring drama, action and of course steam. They have a great connection, I wanted them to find their HEA. I loved seeing characters from previous books as well. A must read!
