In bestseller Elin
Hilderbrand’s first Christmas novel, a family gathers on Nantucket for a
holiday filled with surprises.
Kelley Quinn is the owner of
Nantucket’s Winter Street Inn and the proud father of four, all of them grown
and living in varying states of disarray. Patrick, the eldest, is a hedge fund
manager with a guilty conscience. Kevin, a bartender, is secretly sleeping with
a French housekeeper named Isabelle. Ava, a school teacher, is finally dating
the perfect guy but can’t get him to commit. And Bart, the youngest and only
child of Kelley’s second marriage to Mitzi, has recently shocked everyone by
joining the Marines.
As Christmas approaches,
Kelley is looking forward to getting the family together for some quality time
at the inn. But when he walks in on Mitzi kissing Santa Claus (or the guy who’s
playing Santa at the inn’s annual party), utter chaos descends. With the three
older children each reeling in their own dramas and Bart unreachable in Afghanistan,
it might be up to Kelley’s ex-wife, nightly news anchor Margaret Quinn, to save
Christmas at the Winter Street Inn.
Before the mulled cider is
gone, the delightfully dysfunctional Quinn family will survive a love triangle,
an unplanned pregnancy, a federal crime, a small house fire, many shots of
whiskey, and endless rounds of Christmas caroling, in this heart-warming novel
about coming home for the holidays.
