وصف الناشر
From New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand, comes a novel about the many ways family can fill our lives with love...if they don't kill us first.
*New York Times bestseller*
It's Nantucket wedding season, also known as summer-the sight of a bride racing down Main Street is as common as the sun setting at Madaket Beach. The Otis-Winbury wedding promises to be an event to remember: the groom's wealthy parents have spared no expense to host a lavish ceremony at their oceanfront estate.
But it's going to be memorable for all the wrong reasons after tragedy strikes: a body is discovered in Nantucket Harbor just hours before the ceremony-and everyone in the wedding party is suddenly a suspect. As Chief of Police Ed Kapenash interviews the bride, the groom, the groom's famous mystery-novelist mother, and even a member of his own family, he discovers that every wedding is a minefield-and no couple is perfect. Featuring beloved characters from The Castaways, Beautiful Day, and A Summer Affair, The Perfect Couple proves once again that Elin Hilderbrand is the queen of the summer beach read.

Great read
I loved this murder/mystery (or not) and couldn’t put it down. However I did question a couple of things in the end.
Don’t read further unless you’ve already read the book. But…
- how did the pill box end up in the trash can and who threw them away?
- why did the book mention they found sedatives in Merritt’s system and then never mention it again? Where did they come from?
I still loved the book and will read more of her books but don’t like things left unsaid. 🤷♀️
Easyread
Good easy read but keeps your mind intrigued as to who done it !!
SPOILER ALERT 🚨
I figured this book out way too soon and it was very frustrating because I kept yelling at my phone while listening to the audiobook… “it’s Abby! Abby did it!!” I knew the “glass of water” was from Abby and meant for Featherleigh Dale who was having an affair with Abby’s husband Thomas.
I’m giving this book 3 stars because I liked the concept of the book just didn’t care for the ease of the writing. Such an easy read, no real mystery or depth, in my opinion.
Now, The Perfect Couple the Netflix series… I honestly found it to be worse than the book. I only got to the middle of episode 2 before turning it off. So many changes, why? Why not just follow the book and why change the names of the characters and add random characters? The show definitely took a different direction from the book and I just wasn’t interested.
I’m guessing this is how all Elin Hilderbrand books are written. This is in fact the one and only book of Elin’s I’ve read. I attempted to read the very first book, The Beach Club, she wrote and DNF’d it. I felt the writing was atrocious, almost child like, and way too many characters to keep up with. Not sure if I’ll continue to give this author another chance… to be continued, I guess.
