Adrienne Dealey has spent the past six years working for hotels in exotic resort towns. This summer she has decided to make Nantucket home. Left flat broke by her ex-boyfriend, she is desperate to earn some fast money. When the desirable Thatcher Smith, owner of Nantucket's hottest restaurant, is the only one to offer her a job, she wonders if she can get by with no restaurant experience. Thatcher gives Adrienne a crash course in the business...and they share an instant attraction.

But there is a mystery about their situation: What is it about Fiona, the Blue Bistro's chef, who captures Thatcher's attention again and again? And why does such a successful restaurant seem to be in its final season before closing its doors for good? Despite her uncertainty, Adrienne must decide whether she'll move on, as she always does--or finally open her heart…

At this point I don't know if there's anything else that I can say about how much I love Elin Hilderbrand's book.  I've read almost all of them and except for a couple of little disappointments here and there, I've adored everything about all of her books.

The Blue Bistro is an older book, but it's still super good.  I listened to the audiobook and it was very well done. 

Elin has put it in my head that I WILL go to Nantucket some day.  After reading all these books I can't not go!
