I had a very hard time getting into this book for the first 75-80 pages but I am so glad I kept reading it-it was a great story! This story takes place in Nantucket and the people who own and run The Beach Club Hotel. What a surprise ending!!

It was ok. I expected more because of Barefoot. The last 50 pages were the best but now I need to read her next book to see what happens to the characters. So I guess she did her job to keep you interested in her charcters.

Perfectly fits the bill for "trashy book to read on the beach." I hope the library didn't mind when I returned it with sand stuck inside all the pages.

Hilderbrand's novels are set in Nantucket, so it's gotten me excited for our annual trip to the Island!

Good but a little slow moving and I thought a few too many characters to care about them all.

It was OK, but not at the same level of some other books from the same author.

The weakest of her books, but still very entertaining.
