Silver Girl

Silver Girl by Elin Hilderbrand

About The Book:
Meredith Martin Delinn just lost everything: her friends, her homes, her social standing - because her husband Freddy cheated rich investors out of billions of dollars. Desperate and facing homelessness, Meredith receives a call from her old best friend, Constance Flute. Connie's had recent worries of her own, and the two depart for a summer on Nantucket in an attempt to heal. But the island can't offer complete escape, and they're plagued by new and old troubles alike. When Connie's brother Toby - Meredith's high school boyfriend - arrives, Meredith must reconcile the differences between the life she is leading and the life she could have had. Set against the backdrop of a Nantucket summer, Elin Hilderbrand delivers a suspenseful story of the power of friendship, the pull of love, and the beauty of forgiveness. 

My Thoughts:
What a great "what might have been" story. The characters in the book are created so well that I would think about them and the story, even when I was not reading the book. And then those thoughts would bring me back to the book, because I wanted more. I wanted to know what happens. It was a quick read, good for a summer read, to take you away somewhere in your mind. The story has a great plotline, with surprises here and there. Great read.

About The Author:

She grew up in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, and traveled extensively before settling on Nantucket, which has been the setting for her five previous novels.
