Books like Winter Street by Elin Hilderbrand
On Nantucket’s Winter Street Island, Kelley Quinn runs the inn and anticipates a quiet family Christmas. His four grown children each face personal turmoil: eldest son Patrick, a hedge‑fund manager, wrestles with guilt; Kevin, a bartender, has a secret affair with a French housekeeper; Ava, a teacher, dates a man who won’t commit; and Bart, the youngest, has committed to the Marines and is far from home, battling the reality of war. As Kelley prepares for a holiday gathering, his ex‑wife, TV news anchor Margaret Quinn, steps in when chaos erupts—a romantic misadventure, a potential federal offense, and an unexpected fire threaten the festivities. In this heart‑warming tale, the Quinn family must confront love triangles, accidental pregnancies, and war hardships to preserve the spirit of Christmas.

Christmas on Nantucket finds Winter Street Inn owner Kelley Quinn and his family busily preparing for the holiday season. Though the year has brought tragedy, the Quinns have much to celebrate: Kelley has reunited with his first wife Margaret, Kevin and Isabelle have a new baby; and Ava is finally dating a nice guy. But when Kelley's wife Mitzi shows up on the island, along with Kevin's devious ex-wife Nora and a dangerously irresistible old fling of Ava's, the Inn is suddenly overrun with romantic feuds, not to mention guests. With jealousy, passion, and eggnog consumption at an all-time high, it's going to take a whole lot more than a Christmas miracle to get the Quinns - and the Inn - through the holidays intact.
