When Logan Becker's family embarks on a summer "house swapping" vacation in a beach town in Oregon, Logan is overjoyed. Similarly, Tricia Merrit, the daughter of the other family, is thrilled to be in the farm belt of Minnesota.

Logan falls in love with the beach boy surfer of her dreams, Jeff Hollingsworth, whom she idolizes. But soon she discovers he's Tricia's boyfriend, and Tricia is making plans to return to Oregon early. Logan's dreams are shattered. Meanwhile, there's another boy who is attracted to Logan—the totally uncool Grant Duncan who is busy trying to launch a campaign to clean the local beaches. He also teaches Logan how to build awesome sandcastles.

Can Logan come to realize that true love often reveals itself in unexpected ways?

Reviews:
A wonderful story of a summer romance with interesting twists and turns..." ~ Michelle Poulson-Vick at Sharpwriter Reviews

"Ms. Voeller's talent is superb, and I was impressed with her ability to write as if she were the actual teenager in the book. Sandcastles of Love is a light-hearted young adult romance that's attention grabbing, well-written, and charming." ~ J.B. Leese, A Story Weaver

“Young readers will enjoy Sandcastles of Love, particularly ones who love the beach. If you know a young reader who loves the Beach Boys, sand, and surf, get her a copy of Sandcastles of Love. The story will transport her to the beautiful Oregon coast and offer her a taste of summer romance. Ms. Voeller’s descriptions of the Oregon coast are wonderful, as are the scenes where Grant teaches Logan to build sand castles. Well-written, interesting, and delightfully romantic, they made me want to grab a bucket, take off my shoes and start digging...” Reviewed by Carrie Masek, Scribes World Reviews
