Normally a fan of EH work but this was my least favorite. Characters were annoying, book too long, did not like the epilogue perspective at all...

Hello, Hayley Mills. Well, not really, but in an homage to the Parent Trap, here you have two identical twin sisters (who know about each other) that were divided up between parents to live on the different, but nearby, islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. With an intense rivalry and neither one wanting anything to do with the other, they are forced to come back together following the death of their father. And so ensues the drama, the resolution, and each other finding love in a classic Elin Hildebrand novel.

2.5/5 I wanted to love this but the many plot lines and characters were distracting. I usually love all of the characters Elin introduces but with this story it just felt clunky. I think Ramsey’s character was completely pointless. I also feel the ending was a bit rushed… however I did love the epilogue.
