Description

A husband's secret life, a wife's new beginning: escape to the Caribbean with #1 New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand.

Irene Steele shares her idyllic life in a beautiful Iowa City Victorian house with a husband who loves her to sky-writing, sentimental extremes. But as she rings in the new year one cold and snowy night, everything she thought she knew falls to pieces with a shocking phone call: her beloved husband, away on business, has been killed in a helicopter crash. Before Irene can even process the news, she must first confront the perplexing details of her husband's death on the distant Caribbean island of St. John.

After Irene and her sons arrive at this faraway paradise, they make yet another shocking discovery: her husband had been living a secret life. As Irene untangles a web of intrigue and deceit, and as she and her sons find themselves drawn into the vibrant island culture, they have to face the truth about their family, and about their own futures.

Rich with the lush beauty of the tropics and the drama, romance, and intrigue only Elin Hilderbrand can deliver, Winter in Paradise is a truly transporting novel, and the exciting start to a new series.

"I will just say that, 24 hours after I started this book, I purchased its sequel, What Happens in Paradise, and I did not leave either book to be enjoyed by strangers at the end of my vacation."—Elisabeth Egan, New York Times

Not Worth It

First book we have started to listen to by this author. It is a real snoozer, slow to start and gets slower. Not at all worth time nor money.

So good I had to get the final in the series immediately.

I enjoyed this book in the series and the one before. A bit of a beach read but very enjoyable.

It is slow

I love the narrator but the book is slow. I kept waiting for something big to happen but nothing did. In fairness I didn’t realize this was a trilogy until it ended. At the end I thought it was a waste of time... even after finding out it was part of 3 book series, I haven’t bought the other two. It’s well written just boring 😴

Don't Read if You're Grieving

I enjoy reading Elin Hilderbrand's novels. The characters are interesting, the locations are beautiful, and the story lines are good. This novel did not disappoint. However, there are far too many references to death and dying and being dead. I had to skip many parts. Difficult to get through. Not your typical beach read.

I gave this book a chance, but could not get into

The narrative of the book just seemed to unbelievable to me. I was waiting for it to get better, but it never did. It was to slow, and I could not connect to any of the characters.

Terrible narrator!

Oh my goodness. I can't stand the narrator! Total turn off. I could not get past the first minute! I should have listened to the sample.This is only Book 1 for this story. I can't get through one minute; there is no way I can listen to 2 books.

I have read print copies of Elin Hilderbrand books, so will stick to this in the future.

I am going to get my credit back.

Loved the book

This was a great book. I loved listening to it. The narrator is good. Took some time to get used to her but was overall good. Only thing that I didn’t like was when it was read “he said” or “she said” after someone would talk which wasn’t very necessary and got excessive at times but that more the writing I guess. Overall great fun book. Would recommend

Just the beginning

A very good book start to end. I like that it provided a lot of few points.

I’ve read a few reviews saying the ending left them with a lot of questions but this is just the first book of the trilogy with the 2nd book coming in late 2019. Looking forward to it!

Wonderful book with twists and turns!

This chic lit kind of book is my kind of book. There is a great story line that keeps the reader guessing! Great listen!
