Raise one last glass with the Quinn Family at the Winter Street Inn as New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand delivers a Christmas novel filled with love, family, and celebration.

It's been too long since the entire Quinn family has been able to celebrate the holidays under the same roof, but that's about to change. With Bart back safe and sound from Afghanistan, the Quinns are preparing for a holiday more joyous than any they've experienced in years. And Bart's safe return isn't the family's only good news: Kevin is enjoying married life with Isabelle; Patrick is getting back on his feet after paying his debt to society; Ava thinks she's finally found the love of her life; and Kelly is thrilled to see his family reunited at last. But it just wouldn't be a Quinn family gathering if things went smoothly. A celebration of everything we love—and some of the things we endure—about the holidays, Winter Solstice is Elin Hilderbrand at her festive best.

Elin Hilderbrand

Elin Hilderbrand lives on Nantucket, has three children and is the author of 27 novels, including SUMMER OF '69.

Elin met Dottie in the spring of 2017 at the annual Post & Courier luncheon in Charleston and Elin says, "It was love at first sight." The two authors proceeded to meet on Nantucket every chance they got and they texted and emailed non-stop. They dreamed of doing a joint cooking show called "Cook the Books," where they would invite a third author on to make a signature dish for each episode. They also talked about a cookbook called "The Southern Belle and the Gray Lady." Elin's summer of 2020 novel, 28 Summers, is dedicated to Dottie and Dottie makes a cameo appearance in Elin's summer of 2021 novel, Golden Girl. "I will never again have a writer friend like Dottie," Elin says. "Those of you who knew her understand what I mean, and those of you who didn't will just have to trust me. They broke the mold."
