Publisher's summary

“The queen of beach reads” (New York Magazine) and #1 New York Times ​bestselling author delivers an immensely satisfying pause resister in this tale about a summer of scandal at a storied Nantucket hotel.

Fresh off a bad breakup with a longtime boyfriend, Nantucket sweetheart Lizbet Keaton is desperately seeking a second act. When she’s named the new general manager of the Hotel Nantucket, a once Gilded Age gem turned abandoned eyesore, she hopes that her local expertise and charismatic staff can win the favor of their new London billionaire owner, Xavier Darling, as well as that of Shelly Carpenter, the wildly popular Instagram tastemaker who can help put them back on the map. And while the Hotel Nantucket appears to be a blissful paradise, complete with a celebrity chef-run restaurant and an idyllic wellness center, there’s a lot of drama behind closed doors. The staff (and guests) have complicated pasts, and the hotel can’t seem to overcome the bad reputation it earned in 1922 when a tragic fire killed nineteen-year-old chambermaid Grace Hadley. With Grace gleefully haunting the halls, a staff harboring all kinds of secrets, and Lizbet’s own romantic uncertainty, is the Hotel Nantucket destined for success or doom?

Filled with the emotional depth and multiple points of view that characterize Hilderbrand’s novels (The Blue Bistro, Golden Girl) as well as an added dash of Roaring Twenties history, The Hotel Nantucket offers something for everyone in this compelling summer drama.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book!

I loved this book! The story lines are woven so perfectly, so easy to follow. And honestly, not far fetched from being something that could actually happen. The narrator is smooth in her reading, does well in changing voices for character, and is pleasant to listen to. I may have to listen to it a second time I enjoyed it so much!

Another hit from Hilderbrand!

This book was one of Elin’s best yet! Character development was fantastic; multiple story lines and fabulous narration by Ms Bennett, as always! I always cried when it ended. As is with all of Elin’s books, you want to keep hearing about these characters. Where will they be in a year? Or 5 years? Who stays together? Who moves on? I still find myself thinking this with almost all of her previous novels. And I REALLY want to get to Nantucket.

Good but not her best.

I just wrote a similar review for Jennifer Weiner's newest book. I don't know what's up with the summer reads this year but it's like their missing something that makes them great. Usually I love Elin's books and can't put them down. And this one was good but I didn't love it. It's still worth reading or listening to.
