A Nantucket Christmas: A Novel

A Nantucket Christmas: A Novel

Known for her heartwarming observations of family life, New York Times bestselling author Nancy Thayer showcases her beloved Nantucketâ€™s snowy off-season in this emotionally gratifying and utterly entertaining story.
Â
Holidays on this Massachusetts island are nothing short of magical, and the seasonâ€™s wonderful traditions are much loved by Nicole Somerset, new to Nantucket and recently married to a handsome former attorney. Their home is already full of enticing scents of pine, baking spices, and homemade pie.
Â
But the warm, festive mood is soon tempered by Nicoleâ€™s chilly stepdaughter, Kennedy, who arrives without a hint of holiday spirit. Determined to keep her stepmother at armâ€™s lengthâ€”or, better yet, out of the picture altogetherâ€”Kennedy schemes to sabotage Nicoleâ€™s holiday preparations. Nicole, however, is not about to let anyone or anything tarnish her first Christmas with her new husband.
Â
Nancy Thayerâ€™s wonderful tale reminds us that this is the season of miracles. Before the gifts are unwrapped, surprise visitors appear, and holiday joy comes to all, both naughty and nice.
