Contemporary Women's Fiction
Unerringly perceptive, superbly written, every page packed
with the warmth and compassionate wisdom that have become
Nancy Thayer’s trademark, Heat Wave tells the moving
story of a woman who, after her seemingly perfect life
unravels, must find the strength to live and love
again. Making the startling discovery that her family
finances are in dire straits is only the latest shock
endured by Carley Winsted after her husband’s sudden death
from a heart attack. Resisting her in-laws’ well-meaning
overtures to take in Carley and her two daughters, the young
widow instead devises a plan to keep her family in their
beloved home, a grand historic house on the island of
Nantucket. The solution is right at Carley’s front
door: transforming her expensive, expansive house into a
bed-and-breakfast. Not everyone, however, thinks this plan
prudent or quite respectable—especially not Carley’s
mother-in-law. Further complicating a myriad of challenges,
a friend forces Carley to keep a secret that, if revealed,
will undo families and friendships. When her
late husband’s former law partner keeps showing up at the
most unexpected times, Carley must cope with an array of
mixed feelings. And then, during a late-summer heat wave,
the lives of Carley and her friends and family will be
forever changed in entirely unexpected
ways. Lyrical, emotional, dramatic, and
ultimately wonderfully uplifting, Nancy Thayer’s latest
novel is compelling from its first page to its last.
