The Blue Bistro

The Blue Bistro - Elin Hilderbrand The Blue Bistro by Elin Hildenbrand
Food menu sounds delicious! Last summer for the bistro to be open on Nantucket Island in MA. Adrian Deely was just on the island from Colorado with borrowed money and a lot of debt. She ends up in a room with other college girls and goes to apply for a job at the bistro.
Thatcher Smith is the owner and he agrees to let her work at the bistro. Love how the bar is blue and the story behind it. The job of hostessing and accepting reservations was something she liked after the first hour.
She's becoming familiar with the locals and the people who come into the bistro.
We learn about her parents in the past and her father and new woman plan to pay a visit to the island to see her at work.
She knows the chef is really sick and that Thatch will take her on vacation when the bistro closes for the final time after the summer. She is in love with him and she knows he has to go and what his problems are.
Although there are a lot of people in the book they are easy to follow as they all do different jobs and even the patrons are easy to follow as you learn more about them.
Her father and the dental hygienist are there to spend soem time with her on the island and she is so nervous...
Health problems arise earlier then expected causing many to make rash decisions that they think is the right thing to do. Choices are available.
