Purchase options and add-ons

Check into a storied Nantucket hotel for a summer of scandal in this immensely satisfying page turner from "the queen of beach reads" (New York Magazine) and #1 New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand.

Fresh off a bad breakup with a longtime boyfriend, Nantucket sweetheart Lizbet Keaton is desperately seeking a second act. When she’s named the new general manager of the Hotel Nantucket, a once Gilded Age gem turned abandoned eyesore, she hopes that her local expertise and charismatic staff can win the favor of their new London billionaire owner, Xavier Darling, as well as that of Shelly Carpenter, the wildly popular Instagram tastemaker who can help put them back on the map. And while the Hotel Nantucket appears to be a blissful paradise, complete with a celebrity chef-run restaurant and an idyllic wellness center, there’s a lot of drama behind closed doors. The staff (and guests) have complicated pasts, and the hotel can’t seem to overcome the bad reputation it earned in 1922 when a tragic fire killed nineteen-year-old chambermaid Grace Hadley. With Grace gleefully haunting the halls, a staff harboring all kinds of secrets, and Lizbet’s own romantic uncertainty, is the Hotel Nantucket destined for success or doom?  

Filled with the emotional depth and multiple points of view that characterize Hilderbrand’s novels (The Blue Bistro, Golden Girl) as well as an added dash of Roaring Twenties history, The Hotel Nantucket offers something for everyone in this compelling summer drama.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Hilderbrand is the absolute queen of the beach reads, and her latest offering is dishy and fun, as a classic Nantucket hotel attempts to reinvent itself with a new billionaire owner. It might look glamorous on the outside, but behind closed doors, there is plenty of dysfunction among the staff, drama on the guest side, and a bad reputation the place can’t shake from a tragic fire in 1922."―Mackenzie Dawson, New York Post

"Hilderbrand, who has perfected the romantic beach read, returns with a summer scandal at a Nantucket hotel, where fresh off a bad breakup, general manager Lizbet Keaton struggles to revive the storied but struggling business–and to write her own second act.”―Barbara VanDenburgh, USA Today

“One of Elin’s best books ever…Packed with great surprises, fabulous writing, and an army of wonderful characters, The Hotel Nantucket will keep you pinned to your beach chair until the very last page.”―Brad Thor, TODAY

"The Hotel Nantucket has lots to love: great food, juicy gossip, secrets and scandals, and that special something that Hilderbrand delivers novel after novel."―Sarah Gelman, Business Insider

"It doesn’t feel like summer unless I read an Elin Hilderbrand book, which I’ve done every year for almost a decade....They’re full of secrets and romantic drama and beaches. I’ve read my fair share of novels involving magic and dragons, but fancy New England island living often feels more fantastical to me than anything from George R.R. Martin.” ―Gilbert Cruz, The New York Times

"Bring on the fresh-baked gougères and the hydrangea-blue cashmere throws: A classic fictional setting—the grand hotel—gets the Hilderbrand treatment. The beloved beach novelist’s 28th book is another tour de force...Honestly, who needs Nantucket. It could hardly be more fun than this book."

―Kirkus Reviews

"It's not officially summer until Elin Hilderbrand drops her annual page-turner. In this one, novelist Vivi dies in a hit-and-run and ascends to the Beyond, where she learns she has three "nudges" to influence events on earth. In this touching, scenic story, we learn what it is to let go and let life go on."―Good Housekeeping (on GOLDEN GIRL)

"I like Elin Hilderbrand. You should, too. Her latest is “The Hotel Nantucket” (Little Brown, $29), and like Stephen King, she brings knowing confidence to an abused genre."―Christopher Borrelli, The Chicago Tribune

"It's almost summer, which means Hilderbrand's legions of fans will be anxious for her latest. . . . This is classic Hilderbrand. . . . hopefully, she has many more Nantucket tales in store."―Booklist (on GOLDEN GIRL)

PRAISE FOR 28 SUMMERS:

"Summer on Hilderbrand's Nantucket is never dull. This time she focuses on former lovers who now lead separate lives but share an island idyll once a year. Captivating and bittersweet."―People

"This sweeping love story is Hilderbrand's best ever. . . Her stories are relatable in an aspirational way, but her attention to detail is what makes her characters feel like living, breathing people you want to know. They would never skimp on citronella candles; they would save the least creaky rocking chair for you."―Elisabeth Egan, New York Times Book Review

"Hilderbrand steers this tightly written novel with ease and skill. . . . Less a story about a secretive affair and more a tale of sweet nostalgia and fate, this title will be popular with a wide audience."―Library Journal

"In her 25th novel, Hilderbrand gets everything right and leaves her ardent fans hungry for No. 26. Hilderbrand sets the gold standard in escapist fiction."―Kirkus Reviews

"Stylish, witty and guaranteed to make you feel like a local.”―People Magazine

4.0 out of 5 stars Summer in Nantucket
Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2023

If it’s summer, it’s time for another Elin Hilderbrand book and a trip to Nantucket!
What I particularly enjoyed about this book was the inclusion of a historical fiction storyline, focusing on a “suspicious” death of a chambermaid in a tragic hotel fire. Happily, for us readers (although perhaps not for her), the chambermaid, Grace Hadley, is still haunting the remains of the hotel.
Back to present day, the now rundown hotel is bought by a British billionaire who, among other things, is determined to not only return the Hotel to its former glory, but to earn a coveted top ranking (“five keys”) from a nationally syndicated columnist.
I’ve read a few of Ms. Hilderbrand’s books, so it’s always fun when characters from previous books make an appearance (among them, chef Mario Subiaco, from The Blue Bistro). I love watching his relationship with hotel general manager Lizbet Keaton unfold, along with descriptions of delicious food and drink at both the Hotel Nantucket and other restaurants on Nantucket. Yes, I admit to checking out the menus—if I ever get to the island, I’ll have a list a mile long of places to eat and drink.
Interesting and often amusing characters, well-written dialogue, and lots of fun secrets that come to the surface combine for an altogether lovely summer escape (without the high price tag!).

It didn't matter that I read this "beach read" in February; what a great book! You will love the characters, they are so well-developed. You'll also love the situations the hotel staff finds themselves in and how they resolve the issues. It's a great adventure story from opening day through the entire first summer. Extremely well-written (what you'd expect from Elin Hilderbrand) throughout the novel. You'll feel the sadness as seasonal workers leave at summers end and you'll laugh throughout while not expecting the twists at the end. Read the entire book, especially the multi-page "Blue Book" description of "What to do when you visit Nantucket Island." The vivid, real-life descriptions of restaurants and hotels and bars and beaches and activities will make you want to book your summer vacation to Nantucket NOW. Read this book any time of year; you will not be disappointed!
