From marriage, infidelity, and the mayhem of motherhood to scandal, tragedy, and illnessâ??three women seek peace and comfort in Nantucket as they cope with life's challenges.

Three womenâ??burdened with small children, unwieldy straw hats, and some obvious emotional issuesâ??tumble onto the Nantucket airport tarmac one hot June day. Vicki is trying to sort through the news that she has a serious illness. Her sister, Brenda, has just left her job after being caught in an affair with a student. And their friend Melanie, after seven failed in vitro attempts, is pregnant at lastâ??but only after learning that her husband is having an affair. They have come to escape, enjoy the sun, and relax in Nantucket's calming air. But into the house, into their world, steps twenty-two-year-old Josh Flynn.
Barefoot weaves these four lives together in a story with enthralling sweep and scopeâ??a novel that is as fun and memorable and bittersweet as that one perfect

It is an Elin Hilderbrand book. This time out 3 women with issues
A 31 year old woman (Vicky) diagnosed with lung cancer and who has two children under 5.
Her younger sister, a professor who has been fired.
Vickie’s best friend who has a cheating husband and she is pregnant.
What will cure their ills. A summer is Nantucket of course. Oh and the local hot 22 year old male babysitter.
I love her books. ( )

Good enough beach book with an interesting (but ultimately absurd) plot. But it was yet another book with largely unlikeable characters. Sometimes I understand why they need to be unlikeable but in this particular book it did not seem necessary.

Three women: Vicki with lung cancer, husband Ted, and 2 boys; Brenda, her sister and a disgraced professor who had a relationship with her student, Walsh, a 31-year old Australian; and Melanie, Vicki's best friend, pregnant and cheated on by her husband Peter; all arrive on Nantucket for the summer. They live in their aunt's cottage, which Vicki and Brenda inherited. The cancer treatment causes Vicki many issues while Brenda tries to take care of her sister and write a screenplay in order to pay off a debt related to her time at Champion University as a professor. Melanie is dealing with her husbands infidelity and her surprise pregnancy. Enter Josh, a 21 or 22 year-old college student, who sees them as they disembarked the plane. He is hired as a babysitter for the two boys each weekday morning. This job pays much better than his job at the airport. He is dealing with a needy ex-girlfriend, Didi. ( )
