Fiction. Literature. Romance. HTML:Wedding bells are ringing—and a widowed mother of two hopes the occasion will reunite her daughters in this captivating novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Island House and Secrets in Summer.

“A delightful beach-town tale about family relationships and second chances.”—Kirkus Reviews

A few years after losing her beloved husband, Alison is doing something she never thought she would do again: getting married. While placing the finishing touches on her summer nuptials, Alison is anxious to introduce her fiancé, David, to her grown daughters: Felicity, a worried married mother of two, and Jane, also married but focused on her career. The sisters have a somewhat distant relationship and Alison hopes that the wedding and the weeks leading up to the ceremony will give the siblings a chance to reconnect, as well as meet and get to know David’s grown children.

As the summer progresses, it is anything but smooth sailing. Felicity stumbles upon a terrible secret that could shatter her carefully cultivated world. Jane finds herself under the spell of her soon-to-be stepbrother, Ethan, who is as charming as he is mysterious. And even Alison is surprised (and slightly alarmed) by her new blended family. Revelations, intrigue, resentments—as the Big Day approaches, will the promise of bliss be a bust?
      
Against the gorgeous backdrop of the sunswept island of Nantucket, Nancy Thayer sets the stage for a walk down the aisle no one will ever forget.

I’m sure this is a Good example of this genre but it’s definitely not my type. I alternated between wanting to slap and shake all the characters. I really should know better. ( )

This was a good book for what I needed--an easy read that was great for mindless enjoyment. I was engaged in the story and liked the story line. ( )

I have been a Nancy Thayer fan since her first book. She never disappoints, and as A Nantucket Wedding is perhaps her best yet, I have to say she just gets better and better. ( )

Better than your average beach read. This book was fun between the craziness of a wedding and the blending of two families. ( )

This book is what I needed for a light summer read. I enjoyed the story, and of course the setting of life in a beach house in Nantucket. However, there were a lot of characters that I did not enjoy. Alison, the main character, was also too agreeable when sometimes she should have been furious. Descriptions/recaps also happened a lot in this book, when it wasn't needed. Overall it was a decent book. ( )
