Book Description:

Spend your winter on sunlit shores in the New York Times bestselling follow-up to Winter in Paradise, as secret lives and new loves emerge under the bright Caribbean sky.


A year ago, Irene Steele had the shock of her life: her loving husband, father to their grown sons and successful businessman, was killed in a helicopter crash. But that wasn’t Irene’s only shattering news: he’d also been leading a double life on the island of St. John, where another woman loved him, too.


Now Irene and her sons are back on St. John, determined to learn the truth about the mysterious life — and death — of a man they thought they knew. Along the way, they’re about to learn some surprising truths about their own lives, and their futures.


Lush with the tropical details, romance, and drama that made Winter in Paradise a national bestseller,What Happens in Paradise is another immensely satisfying page-turner from one of America’s most beloved and engaging storytellers.


Thoughts:

Let’s just say that I cannot wait for the next book to come out! I loved the character development in this book, especially the teases on the relationship between Russ and Rosie.

I guess you could read this book without reading Winter in Paradise, although I’d recommend not doing that so that you get the full background story. This book was more of a full novel and didn’t have the “first book” feel the prior book did.


This book has everything from romance, grief, heartache, new romance, friendship, lust with a little bit of mystery. I’m pulled by all of the characters and their relationships that are developing (and ending). I’m anxious to see how all of the storylines come together and can’t wait for the last installment of this series is released.


Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
