Product Description
Adrienne Dealey has spent the past six years working for hotels in exotic resort towns. This summer she has decided to make Nantucket home. Left flat broke by her ex-boyfriend, she is desperate to earn some fast money. When the desirable Thatcher Smith, owner of Nantucket's hottest restaurant, is the only one to offer her a job, she wonders if she can get by with no restaurant experience. Thatcher gives Adrienne a crash course in the business...and they share an instant attraction.
But there is a mystery about their situation: What is it about Fiona, the Blue Bistro's chef, who captures Thatcher's attention again and again? And why does such a successful restaurant seem to be in its final season before closing its doors for good? Despite her uncertainty, Adrienne must decide whether she’ll move on, as she always does—or finally open her heart…

 Blue Bistro but RED Sox November 2, 2008

This was a well-crafted story that kept me coming back for more. I loved the Nantucket aspect-- terrific setting-- transported me to summer. Also enjoyed the food descriptions and wished the restaurant was real so I could go there some August. Oddly, I couldn't form a clear picture in my mind of the two main characters, Adrienne and Thatcher, but I was interested in their journeys regardless. I think the author could do a better job differentiating between the dad and love interest in terms of dialogue (they almost seemed identical character-wise). Gripe: she writes about the White Sox at Fenway; this book takes place in Massachusetts-- it's the RED Sox!
 Wonderful! September 28, 2008

I devoured this book in a weekend. Hilderbrand creates characters you truly care about. I couldn't wait to pick the book back up to see what would happen next. Very enjoyable.
Can't Stop Thinking about the Characters! July 28, 2008

I finished this book several days ago and have yet to open another book. Normally when I finish a book, I immediately start on another. However, these characters got into my heart, and I can't stop thinking about them. I want to go back and check on them. I want to peek into their lives again and see how they are doing, what they are doing... I am an avid reader like so many, and this story is the one I now carry with me. I have read other Hilderbrand books and loved them all. However, this is the one that touched me the most.
Could not put it down! July 22, 2008

This was my first EH book. I loved it...could not put it down. The relationship dynamics are deep and complicated. However, the ending was rushed. However the book was SO Good it took me a Month to get over it! Deep stuff! Wish there was more to the end.
