HerKentucky Whiskey Glass Rating: 🥃🥃

Publisher’s synopsis: 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.

HerKentucky review: Meredith Martin Delinn turns to her childhood friend Constance Flute for help when Meredith’s husband Freddy is imprisoned for running a Ponzi scheme. The Meredith character is roughly based on Ruth Madoff, and the story hinges upon the idea that Meredith never suspected her husband of illegal activity. The story feels stiff and unsatisfying; definitely skip this one.
