Who is Elin Hilderbrand?
Elin Hilderbrand is known as the queen of the beach read because she writes wonderful stories about relatable woman and their lives in Nantucket. Many of her books include beautiful descriptions of island life and the great food and activities on Nantucket island. I’ve been slowly working my way through her backlist. On this blog I’ve shared book reviews of 28 Summers, The 5 Star Weekend, The Hotel Nantucket, and Golden Girl. Up next I’ll be sharing full book review of the Elin Hilderbrand Winter Series.
What is the order of Elin Hilderbrand winter books?
There are four books in the Winter Street series: Winter Street, Winter Stroll, Winter Storms, and Winter Solstice.
Do you have to read the Winter Street series in order?
While most of her books are standalone novels, these books are meant to be read in order. In the first book you are first introduced to the characters and from the second book on you get to know them even better.
Is Winter Solstice by Elin Hilderbrand a series?
Winter Solstice is part of the Winter Street series by Elin Hilderbrand. Winter Solstice is the fourth and final book in the series.
What is Winter Street about?
In Book 1 we are introduced to Kelley Quinn, the owner of the Winter Street Inn in Nantucket. He’s the father of four and his children are all grown up. But although he’s a proud father, everyone knows that just because your kids are grown doesn’t mean they have things all figured out. Patrick, Kevin, Ava, and youngest brother Bart all have secrets that they are keeping as Christmas approaches.
There’s no chance of a calm Christmas when Kelley walks in on his second wife Mitzi kissing Santa Claus! It turns out that it’s not just a song… it happens in real life too. The three oldest Quinn children are left to deal with their own personal dramas as well as their fathers. Meanwhile, Bart is stationed in Afghanistan with the marines, and completely unreachable.
Oh! And Kelley’s ex wive news anchor Margaret Quinn may be the only person who can help him.
Winter Street is filled with family drama, Christmas activities, mulled cider, and maybe a little bit of chaos.
What is Winter Stroll about?
Winter Stroll is book 2 in the Winter Street series. In book 2 Kelley Quinn is preparing for Christmas again. As he writes his annual Christmas letter for family and friends, he reflects on the happenings of his family. He’s single again and on better terms with his first wife Margaret. Meanwhile the kids have a lot going on as well! His son Patrick is adjusting to becoming a father, and his daughter Ava is in a new relationship.
It’s looking to be a great Christmas as the Quinn family prepares for the baptism of Patrick’s beautiful new baby, as well as the rest of the Christmas festivities on the island. But when Mitzi (Kelley’s wife from his second marriage) shows up after her relationship fall through, chaos ensues. But what’s a family holiday without a little unexpected drama?
What is Winter Storms about?
Winter Storms is the heartwarming third addition to the Winter Stroll series. After a rough couple of holiday seasons, things are looking up for the Quinn family. Mitzi has returned to the family. Patrick is about to be released from jail. Kevin has a new business and is ready to take the next step with his little family. But of course when the family gathers, things aren’t perfect.
But as with all Elin Hilderbrand books, other members of the family are dealing with personal struggles. The entire Quinn family is preparing for the nuptials of Patrick and Isabelle, the french housekeeper who he met at his father’s Inn.
What is Winter Solstice about?
Winter Solstice is the fourth book in the series. It comes after some time apart and the Quinn’s are happy to be back together for the holidays. Kevin and Isabelle are happing married. Patrick is back after his stint in jail. Bart is home safe from Afghanistan where he was deployed as a marine, and Ava has finally found a satisfying relationship.
These people finally deserve a break, right? Nope. Just like the rest of the book series the plot is filled with quality family time, new loves, and characters dealing with their own personal dramas. This may be utter chaos but that won’t stop the Quinn family from having happy holidays.
In Conclusion
I hope you enjoyed this blog post about the Elin Hilderbrand winter books in order. While many of Hilderbrand’s books are perfect for summer vacation at the beach club, this series is perfect for the holiday season.
Each book is filled with complex characters, family drama, Christmas activities, and holiday fun. Whether it’s a surprise guest popping in or endless rounds of Christmas caroling, the delightfully dysfunctional Quinn family will have you cheering and laughing. Each book has a story line that is completely unique and unpredictable.
Once you read this entire series, you’ll be obsessed with Elin’s book and want to keep reading the rest of her romance novels.
