A husband's secret life, a wife's new beginning- escape to the Caribbean with 1 New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand. Irene Steele shares her idyllic life in a beautiful Iowa City Victorian house with a husband who loves her to sky-writing, sentimental extremes. But as she rings in the new year one cold and snowy night, everything she thought she knew falls to pieces with a shocking phone call- her beloved husband, away on business, has been killed in a helicopter crash. Before Irene can even process the news, she must first confront the perplexing details of her husband's death on the distant Caribbean island of St. John. After Irene and her sons arrive at this faraway paradise, they make yet another shocking discovery- her husband had been living a secret life. As Irene untangles a web of intrigue and deceit, and as she and her sons find themselves drawn into the vibrant island culture, they have to face the truth about their family, and about their own futures. Rich with the lush beauty of the tropics and the drama, romance, and intrigue only Elin Hilderbrand can deliver, Winter in Paradise is a truly transporting novel, and the exciting start to a new series. I will just say that, 24 hours after I started this book, I purchased its sequel, What Happens in Paradise, and I did not leave either book to be enjoyed by strangers at the end.

Wonderful surprise

Wow, this book was not what I expected. At first, Irene kind of bored me, but after the initial character introductions, the book really took off for me. I really enjoyed the multiple POVs. It felt like I was in on a secret that the others didn’t know yet and the anticipation was exciting. The relationships are tangled, complicated, and somehow manage to be ridiculous and realistic at the same time. Hilderbrand’s love for St. John island really shines through in her writing. The island, the food, the ocean, and the laid-back lifestyle that it represents are a beautiful part of the story. I enjoyed the twists and surprises, although just when you think it’s all tied up neatly, there’s a cliffhanger hooking you in for the second book. I can’t wait to continue the story of Irene and her sons. “Love is messy, complicated, and unfair.”

5 stars, book 1 of a trilogy!

5 Stars for Elin Hilderbrand's Winter In Paradise! I went into this one knowing it was a trilogy. Holy moly, I practically inhaled this book. It had all of the ingredients I was looking for in my next read- secrets, paradise, wealth, and island life! The plot kept me turning pages in a dreamy setting. If you're looking for a great, addictive read, grab your coconut rum and buckle up. But, we have to pace ourselves. The third book in the trilogy isn't out until October so...sip and read this one in monderation. I loved this one, @elinhilderbrand! #perfectsummerread #islandlife #quickread #loveawriter #5stars #bookreviews #sendmebooks #sendmetotheisland #coconut #sandyfeet #justaddrum
