Heading for the island of Nantucket to house-sit a charming beach house, the members of the Hot Flash Club--Marilyn, Shirley, Faye, Polly, and Alice--are looking forward to a languorous summer of relaxation, but their turbulent personal lives and the possible sale of The Haven, their spa retreat for middle-aged women, gets in the way. 70,000 first printing. - Baker & Taylor
When a long-time spa client asks the gals of the Hot Flash Club to housesit her Nantucket hideaway for the summer, they're beyond thrilled; the cozy island enclave is the perfect place to shop, swim, chill, and plan Marilyn's upcoming wedding to Ian, her Scottish fiancGe. And Marilyn desperately needs the break, since Ian's grown son has crashed at the couple's place with no departure date in sight. Soon after they arrive, the other hot flashers surrender to their own summer flings. But this lovefest among the sand and ocean breezes is not without its consequences--each woman must determine for herself what she is willing to give up in order to hold onto what she has found. But these concerns may be eclipsed by the mystery surrounding the disappearance of family heirlooms at the house where they are staying, and rumors that the place harbors spirits other than Tanqueray.--From publisher description.Heading for Nantucket to house-sit a charming beach house, the members of the Hot Flash Club are looking forward to a summer of relaxation, but the possible sale of The Haven, their spa retreat for middle-aged women, gets in the way. - Random House, Inc.
Since opening up their day spa, The Haven, the wonderful women of the Hot Flash Club have been busy indulging the beleaguered, nerve-frazzled throngs. Now, in Nancy Thayerâs hilarious new Hot Flash novel, itâs the friendsâ turn to grab some soothing, and much-deserved R&R.
When a long-time Haven client asks the gals to housesit her Nantucket hideaway for the summer, theyâre beyond thrilled; the cozy island enclave is the perfect place to shop, swim, chill, and plan Marilynâs upcoming wedding to Ian, her Scottish fiancé. And Marilyn desperately needs the break, since Ianâs grown son has crashed at the coupleâs place with no departure date in sight.
Soon after they arrive, the other hot flashers surrender to their own summer flings: Shirley entertains a steamy dalliance with a scruffy, sexy local fisherman that could lead to something deeper; Faye finds her dream house, but restoring it could be a costly nightmare; craft-maven Polly is enthralled by the islandâs bounty, from shell art to lightship baskets; and even hardboiled Alice swoons with romantic adventureâor is it seasickness?
But this lovefest among the sand and ocean breezes is not without its consequences. Each woman must determine for herself what she is willing to give up in order to hold onto what she has foundâand all of them fear that Shirley is on the brink of making a huge mistake, one that threatens their harmony and their business. But these concerns may be eclipsed by the mystery surrounding the disappearance of family heirlooms at the house where they are staying, and rumors that the place harbors spirits other than Grey Goose and Tanqueray.
Nancy Thayer continues her hugely successful Hot Flash series with this wickedly funny, delightfully bawdy tale. These irresistible women spring to lifeâalong with their passions, their sorrows, their joys, and, most importantly, their friendship. So pack your bags and join these fabulous five for a season of fun, sun, love, sex, and estrogen therapy.
