No Forever Like Nantucket

The Sweet Island Inn Series, Book 6

De: Grace Palmer

Narrado por: Susan Boyce

If Mae loses the Inn, she’ll lose everything.

Mae Benson was born to run the Sweet Island Inn. She cooks, she cleans, she laughs, she makes a mean pot of coffee, and she always knows which beach to recommend to her guests. But suddenly, that way of life looks very much in danger.

On what was supposed to be a happy day—the day her boyfriend Dominic gets down on one knee and asks her to marry him—Mae discovers that a collective of out-of-towners with bad motives intends to usurp her business by building a competing hotel right down the street.

And she’s not the only one floundering. Other mysterious out-of-towners are bringing troubles of their own for the Benson clan—including an anonymous offer to buy out Sara’s ownership of Little Bull restaurant—with some very strange strings attached.

Holly’s childhood friends arrive back on Nantucket for a tumultuous high school reunion with plenty of baggage in tow.

And Eliza, meanwhile, is doing her best to keep her head above water—even as the anxieties she thought she had left behind threaten to drag her beneath the stormy waves.

Catch up with the Benson family in this sweet women’s-fiction novel.

Write a book number seven

I enjoyed this series very much. I wish she’d write another several books and I wish you wouldn’t skip a year between each book. I wish she just continue on in that time.

Not Finished

Story ok but each book stops without finishing. No real ending. Choppy. Feel duped by having to buy 6 books for a story that did not finish.

Just ok

This was the most unsatisfying ending to a series for me. I really enjoyed the first three books but they got progressively worse. I'm not sorry I listened. It just didn't really grab me. I stayed with it because I got invested after liking the first three books and I needed to see it through to the end. But it was disappointing for me.

This book just irritated me - plain and simple.

I’ve liked these books, I like Grace Palmer. I DO NOT LIKE THIS NARRATOR. She makes everyone just sound gloomy and old. There is no lightness in her voice at all. Everything sounds stoic and blah. Narration takes away from these books. I’ve liked these characters until now. The whole thing with Eliza and depression. It drug out and the way the narrator said “piillllsssss” over and over was too much… like she was doing hard drugs. My gosh, address the issue. The woman has postpartum/depression and needs help. Stop running from it and bring it out in the story. Yet it’s portrayed as some secret, shameful thing. Taking a pill for depression is not some dirty secret. “The Pilllllsssss.” That really got too me. Sarah being so naive - come on meet your business partners before you go signing your life away. Mae - so naive. I’m like can someone in this family get their head out of the sand for just a minute and take care of things. I don’t know… it just seemed too whiny. I know it’s supposed to portray strong women by showing their trials and how they stick together, but it doesn’t work for me. They come across as just weak women. Author kept dragging things out with every character. Leave out all those details describing every little scene. It just seemed like fluff. You can’t win them all… I’ll try another one, but I had to listen to part of this one on fast forward because it got in my nerves so much. It was just a combination of a lot of things.

Unsatisfying series

I am a lifelong series reader. This series ended with almost every storyline unfinished. Had I known this was how the series ended I would not have purchased any of the books in the series. I hesitate to start another series by this author.

The ending sucked

I enjoyed the story. This is the 6th book in the series, the storyline was ok….but the ending sucks. Matter a fact….it didn’t really “end”.

The ludicrous storyline

Parts of this story are infuriatingly ludicrous! Sell your business without coordinating with a lawyer…not asking whom she
Would be working with! Eliza’s issues…Holly. What started as promising was incredibly bad. The hotel name same as inn! Characters not even likable anymore. Just finished the series and I have never been more disappointed in a book series.

Worst …. ??end ever‼️

Are there any mature adults here ?? Their personalities seem to digress instead of improving…. Ridiculous and incredibly decisions that know one owning their own business would make …. The whole thingwas frustrating and then the abrupt unfinished end‼️👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

waste of money

this ending for a series was the worst, nothing resolved, everything up in the air except the message that with family you van get through whatever. well I personally would like to see challenges resolved. this whole series was very open ended and I was hoping to get a little resolution at the end but apparently not. sad I wasted my money on all of the books in this series.

Ending was horrible

This was so disappointing. 4 storyline characters and no ending for any of them. I’ll never read/ listen to any other books she writes
