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,
