Description

Now a Netflix limited series, from New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand, comes a novel about the many ways family can fill our lives with love...if they don't kill us first.

*New York Times bestseller*

It's Nantucket wedding season, also known as summer-the sight of a bride racing down Main Street is as common as the sun setting at Madaket Beach. The Otis-Winbury wedding promises to be an event to remember: the groom's wealthy parents have spared no expense to host a lavish ceremony at their oceanfront estate.   But it's going to be memorable for all the wrong reasons after tragedy strikes: a body is discovered in Nantucket Harbor just hours before the ceremony-and everyone in the wedding party is suddenly a suspect. As Chief of Police Ed Kapenash interviews the bride, the groom, the groom's famous mystery-novelist mother, and even a member of his own family, he discovers that every wedding is a minefield-and no couple is perfect. Featuring beloved characters from The Castaways, Beautiful Day, and A Summer Affair, The Perfect Couple proves once again that Elin Hilderbrand is the queen of the summer beach read.

    Fine/good, there were chapters that I really enjoyed but there were some characters POV’s that I did not like. The protagonists parents parts were dull to read and I thought the zoo keeper job was a bit random. Setting was well done though.
  • Fantastic book that keeps you in edge.

    I started the movie on Netflix. But then I realized it was a book written by Elin Hilderbrand. I absolutely love her books & I realized I needed to read this book before I watched the movie Now, a book really has to catch my attention in order for me to read it. I literally could not put this book down. Just when you think they can’t get better than this right? Chapter after chapter captivates you and tells the story for each individual person. I highly recommend this book.
  • Unsatisfying ending

    Good storyline but Too many characters, practically need a chart to keep track of who’s who. Very unsatisfying ending!
  • Good for quick summer read

    Lackluster ending and a little corny, detective is literally Shamar moore’s character in criminal minds, maybe because I read so many in this genre but wasn’t bad!!
  • Captivating

    I’m not one for murder mysteries but this one was great. So many suspects and in the end you won’t say “ I new it”
  • Great summer read

    Like most of EH’s books, I enjoyed the escape to Nantucket, and the murder mystery twist was a fun addition!

    Not my favorite of elin hilderbrand’s novels. Too much back and forth between characters and timeline. Never felt invested in any of the characters.
  • Loved this book !!

    One of Elin Hilderbrand’s best. Didn’t want to put it down and hated to get to the last page.
  • Lots of twists and turns.

    Not jaw dropping.
