A Nantucket Wedding by Nancy Thayer

5.0

Alison is a fifty-year-old widowed woman who has found herself in love again and is ready to spend the rest of her life with him. Alison and her soon-to-be husband David decide to bring their families to Nantucket to get to know each other before their wedding day. Both Alison and David’s children are grown, have families of their own and are each set in their own ways. Alison’s daughters Felicity and Jane have been estranged, but their time on Nantucket help bond them together again and each gain a deeper appreciation of the other. David’s children Poppy and Ethan couldn’t be more opposite. Poppy is very headstrong and doesn’t want another woman (or family) in the picture. Ethan is very care-free and hasn’t been very close to his family. Each sibling and their family learn a lot about each other and their families during the course of the summer on Nantucket and the book does a great job of focusing on adult life and real life problems that we all may face. Nancy Thayer always writes such wonderful, intriguing books and this one was no different. If you’re looking for a beach read this summer, definitely read this one!
