What if the Lift driver who finds your cheating boyfriend's phone holds the directions to true love?

'Who are you and why do you have my boyfriend's phone?' 'He left it in my car. You must be the blonde in the red dress? I'm the Lift driver who dropped you two off earlier.'

And with these words, the life of the brunette and t-shirt wearing Maya Maas is turned upside down. Having planned to surprise her boyfriend, she finds herself single and stranded in an unknown city on her birthday.

So when the mystery driver rescues Maya with the suggestion that she cheer herself up at a nearby beach town, she jumps at the chance to get things back on track. She wasn't expecting a personalized itinerary or the easy companionship that comes from opening up to a stranger via text, let alone the possibility it might grow into something more...

My thoughts on The Meeting Point

The Meeting Point is a captivating, heart-warming story. The main characters are easy to love and connect with, while the minor characters add richness and depth to the tale. The gorgeous settings around Carmel by the Sea and the Bay area fit beautifully with the plotline.

Everyone can relate to Maya. She’s a bit naive, a little sarcastic, somewhat klutzy, and struggling to get a grip on her life. Will mysterious Max be the catalyst she needs to begin standing up for herself and finally figure out what she whats in her life?

Friendship and caring for those around you is the thread that ties everyone together in this novel. While Maya has a bit of a matchmaker in her, Ethan uses his status and goodwill to make life better for those he cares about. They seem to have incredible chemistry, but this story is about finding Max, the Lift driver who anonymously gave her the best birthday of her life. Or is it?

I highly recommend you read a copy of this delightful book. It captured my attention in the early pages and demanded I read it almost in one sitting. I finished the story hoping for more from this author and her characters.

I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
