Resumen del Editor

Three romantic rivals in one crowded house equals plenty of room for jealousy in this surprising and heartwarming story from New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand.

Laurel Thorpe, Belinda Rowe, and Scarlett Oliver share only two things; a love for the man they all married, Deacon Thorpe—a celebrity chef with an insatiable appetite for life—and a passionate dislike of one another. All three are remarkable, spirited women, but they couldn't be more different. Laurel: Deacon's high school sweetheart and an effortlessly beautiful social worker; Belinda: a high-maintenance Hollywood diva; and Scarlett: a sexy southern belle floating by on her family money and her fabulous looks. They've established a delicate understanding over the years—they avoid each other at all costs.

But their fragile detente threatens to come crashing down after Deacon's tragic death on his favorite place on earth: a ramshackle Nantucket summer cottage. Deacon's final wish was for his makeshift family to assemble on his beloved Nantucket to say good-bye. Begrudgingly, Laurel, Belinda, and Scarlett gather on the island as once again, as in each of their marriages, they're left to pick up Deacon's mess. Now they're trapped in the crowded cottage where they all made their own memories—a house that they now share in more ways than one—along with the children they raised with Deacon, and his best friend. Laurel, Belinda, and Scarlett each had an unbreakable bond with Deacon—and they all have secrets to hide.

Before the weekend is over, there are enough accusations, lies, tears, and drama to turn even the best of friends—let alone three women who married the same man—into adversaries. As his unlikely family says good-bye to the man who brought them together—for better or worse—will they be able to put aside their differences long enough to raise a glass in Deacon's honor?

Sweet

A nice story that feels good even tho it centres around a death. Very descriptive characters that are believable and relatable. I enjoyed the side stories of each individual relationship and the narrator did an excellent job.

I didn't want it to End

Belinda falls Off the Boat ! Then healing begins. Unexpected twist.This is a Great.summer Read

Great beach read!

Kept me hooked to my headphones!
Awesome story....again from Elin Hilderbrand. Will recommend it to all my friends! Thanks!

Not Engaging

I just had a hard time connecting with the characters and the story. By the time I did, the story was almost over. Disappointing.

Good book with one issue

I liked this book and the narrator. I was invested in the characters and looked forward to listening. The only thing I didn’t like was that it was normal for every character to cheat on their spouse and then remarry, and do it multiple times. Every main character. Like it was normal. By the end I was tired of it.

Yep, another hat trick!

Five stars all three ways. Great entertainment and writing. Well done and greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Imperfect person

Deacon is a complicated guy. He always wanted his father’s approval and spent his life fighting those demons. When he dies, his family picks up the pieces and find a way to co-exist.

wonderful storyline

Wow, The story keeps getting better. Definetly a page turner. love the characters and storyline. Absolutely draws you in.

Heart Warming as always!

This book was Heart Warming as always! So many different story lines to keep you interested.

very good!

Awesome book. Very real and honest. I loved how the imperfect people were lovable and flawed at the same time. I went from hate to pity to admiration for several of the characters.
