Winter in Paradise by Elin Hilderbrand Book Summary

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

Enjoyable!. I enjoyed this book and it kept me guessing. It felt realistic or even possible the as events rolled out. I continued on with the 2nd and 3rd books. But really wish it was all rolled into one book.

Winter in Paradise. I loved the book until the ending. It left you hanging with too many loose ends. Very disappointing.

Great story, bad proofing. I loved the story and can’t wait for the “rest of the story” I am quite disappointed in the proof reading that was done on this book...wrong names used...words misspelled....really not a very good job at all.

Winter in Paradise. I am really disappointed that I spent $14.99 on this book. Unlike able characters (with stupid names) unbelievable story line and poor editing makes me say don’t waste your time or money on this one or the two others that are supposed to follow. I know I won’t be reading them.

Winter paradise. I thought it was terrific and so well written. Am getting next book.... first time reading Hildebrand....willieculture

Ugh... AMAZING. I loved every second... must read!

Winter in Paradise. Loved this book. I was relieved that it is the first in a trilogy. How book two is out soon. I’m glad Elin has moved to a new locale.

Worth reading. A real heartstring grabber for romantics. Also the great descriptions definitely make me want to visit the USVI.

No! So upsetting to buy half a book. Elin Hildebrand’s ebooks are really expensive. But I always pay it, because the quality is usually good. Usually. This book is 20% shorter than her last one. But that’s not the worst part. This is only half the story! It ends on a stupid cliffhanger. I bought it for a flight and I sat there over the North Atlantic thinking, YOU’RE KIDDING ME. I can’t believe it ended so abruptly. I never would have paid 15.00 to be left hanging like that.

Devoured in 2 days!. The way she tells the stories of all the characters in blocks and then eventually ties them all together……. Genius! I cannot wait to read more books from this author!

Winter in Paradise. This book was entertaining with interesting characters. The plot was woven well and moved at a good pace. The ending was very abrupt and did not keep well with the storyline. Very disappointed in this book.

Just ok. Wasn’t as captivating as usual

Very good. I loved this book! I was sad when it ended. I can't wait to read the next one.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. This book is so good! It is filled with twists and turns. Elin has done it again! Leaves me wanting more! I can’t wait for the TV show!

Excellent!!. The reader did a great job narrating and the storyline left you wanting more!!! I read all 3 books in the series and I’m sad to know the storyline is finished.

Disappointing read. Disappointing book!! I have read all of Elin Hilderbrand books and was always satisfied. This book was just so disjointed and no flow. She really didn’t delve into any of the characters deeply and the storyline was weak. Honestly I just kept reading because I was hoping it would get better and the fact I paid $14.99. Don’t waste your time or money on this book.

A Rip Off. I enjoyed the book right up to the point where it ends as “to be continued”.

Good up until the end. I don’t like to be left hanging. I want everything wrapped up nice. I was disappointed.

Winter in Paradise. I loved this book. Having spent time in the Virgin Islands and on St. John, it brought back fond memories. Oh and just get over the editing. I know there were some errors, but really it was a fun read and I can’t wait for the sequels I also appreciated that the woman wasn’t 30 and had experienced life, but was still portrayed and vibrant attractive. Couldn’t put this down.

Entertaining reading. I've read 5 of her books now and they are entertaining reading, not too light, not too heavy. One thing I never want to be is the mystery husband in all the ones I've read so far because he is always dead, perhaps from an airplane crash or helicopter.

Abrupt ending. The book was ok, not great, until I got to the “end.” I actually thought there was a malfuntion of my iBook app. I couldn’t believe a book would end on that note. Very disappointed...

So excited!. First off I was not aware in reading this that it was going to be the first in a trilogy. As I was nearing the end I kept thinking, “IT CAN NOT END LIKE THIS!”. I love a good trilogy/ series. You can never get a good enough feel for characters or a story you fall in love with from one book. Unless it’s a million pages long, which causes you to lose interest. I am only disappointed that I started this one the day it came out and can’t immediately start the second. The story has great characters, fantastic storyline and what I’m assuming will be perfect plot twists in the upcoming books. Do not hesitate in choosing this, you won’t be disappointed. This is not the first of this authors books that I have read. Now I can say with certainty that it will definitely not be the last either. I actually called my husband this morning and said I really think we should consider selling our house and moving the the USVI’s!

Series?!!! No!. Good story but I didn’t realize it was a series!!! I definitely wouldn’t have bought it! Bummer!!! It’s like turning off a good movie in the middle 😡

Winter in Paradise. Not very good. Only redeeming factor is the wonderful description of my beloved St. John!

Winter in Paradise. Loved this book from beginning to end. I felt like I was on some tropical island while reading this delightful book. Can’t wait to read the next one.

Winters in paradise. Ummmm what happened to the end of the book? I think they forgot to add the pages! Dumb Book!

Fun read, but . . .. Much telling, not showing - that irritated me about the writing. It’s abrupt ending was a disappointment, but reckon it’s the first offering in a trilogy.

Winter in paradise. Great book a page turner eager for the next two

Very engaging, well written. Finished this book in like 3 days which is fast for me. Found myself choosing to read this over watching Netflix. Very enticing story. Enjoyed it.

Fell in Love. Hard to put down. I’ve been introduced to Elin Hilderbrand’s books and I’m not turning back.

Winter in Paradise. Terrible ending to have. If you’re going to write a book do it and don’t drop it trying to make money for another.

Did the author have to suddenly leave?. Such a total waste of time! Author should have spent more time on plot and less time on ridiculous character names. Maybe she would have had enough creative energy to actually finish the story!

Slow and predictable. Too many words to convey story.

Winter in Paradise. I just finished this book. Found several grammatical and name errors. The proofreader did not do a good job. Her ending also disappointed, UNLESS it’s the first in a series????

No end. This was a great read until you go to the end and it’s a completely unfinished a story not just a cliffhanger just completely unfinished horrible

Easy summer read. Elin is my favorite author for an easy summer read! Read this book in 1 day!

The ending??. I wish this book, and the 1st book in this trilogy, would focus a lot more on the crime and a little less on the relationships. The ending is... too much? Of a cliffhanger. Still light, quick reads. Just wish these books had a bit more substance.

Must Read!. Ready for Book 2!

Winter in Paradise. Great read, however, the ending left me wanting!

Winter in Paradise. Where is the rest of the book? This story was riveting until I turned the page to read the next chapter and saw "Learn more about the author." It was the end! Is this the first book in a trilogy? Please say it's so! Even knowing how it ends, I would still recommend it. The characters are compelling, the situation is gripping and the mystery is....still a mystery. Come on........

Easy & fun. Such an easy and fun read!

A Great Story!. Elin has done it again! She creates characters and stories so vivid and intriguing that I feel as though they are real and I want to live in their world! St John’s is now on my list of destinations that I must visit. I can’t wait for the next book in this trilogy!

Not a complete book. As others have commented, this book jumps off a cliff at the end and the only way you can continue reading is to buy the next book. Very annoying. (Next book does just the same thing).

Winter in Paradise. Boring, slow and a terrible ending. I have read all this author’s books and enjoyed them. This is a big disappointment.

Winter in Paradise. Read this book when husband was medically evacuated from a Cruise Ship in St Thomas helped take me to the ports that we missed. Hope the next book is out for our makeup Cruise this October!

WORST EVER. This was the most boring audio book that I have ever listened to. Very confusing in the beginning then it did get interesting only to find out the ending was the beginning of an FBI investigation?NOT! it was the END! if this is a series it should be noted so we can read all of them in order. No mention of that!! The vocal was the worst ever too many He said She said. Very disappointed!!

Ending that was a bit disappointing. Loved the book but didn’t realize it was a trilogy!

Winter in Paradise. I can’t wait for the next book in this series. Very good book
