An Island Christmas: A Novel

An Island Christmas: A Novel

In this enchanting holiday novel from New York Times bestselling author Nancy Thayer, family and friends gather on Nantucket for a gorgeous winter wedding with plenty of merry surprises in store.
Â
As Christmas draws near, Felicia returns to her familyâ€™s home on the island to marry her adventurous, rugged boyfriend, Archie. Every detail is picture-perfect for a dream wedding: the snow-dusted streets, twinkling lights in the windows, a gorgeous red and white satin dress. Except a lavish ceremony is not Feliciaâ€™s dream at all; itâ€™s what her mother, Jilly, wants. Jillyâ€™s also worried that her daughterâ€™s life with daredevil Archie will be all hiking and skydiving. Wondering if their handsome neighbor Steven Hardy might be a more suitable son-in-law, Jilly embarks on a secret matchmaking campaign for Felicia and the dashing stockbroker.
Â
As the big day approaches and Jillyâ€™s older daughter, Lauren, appears with rambunctious kids in tow, tensions in the household are high. With the family careening toward a Yuletide wedding disaster, an unexpected twist in Nancy Thayerâ€™s heartwarming tale reminds everyone about the true meaning of the season.
