Trouble in Paradise – Elin Hilderbrand<\/p><\/div>\n

With most of their assets seized by the FBI, the Steele family finds themselves scattered around St. John, trying to rebuild their lives.\u00a0 After reading Rosie’s journals, Irene’s anger resurfaces and she leaves Huck, both the job on the boat and his house, moving in to Baker’s new villa.\u00a0 When she runs into the mysterious Marilyn Monroe, she learns the truth about Todd Croft and how he used and trapped Russ as his fall guy, leading to his ultimate death.\u00a0 After everyone reunites with their respective new loved ones, a hurricane hits the island and destroys nearly everything.<\/p>\n

Troubles in Paradise<\/em>, released in 2020, is the third and final entry in Elin Hilderbrand\u2019s Paradise trilogy.\u00a0 Well, I wouldn’t quite say that I got the satisfying resolution that I had hoped for<\/a>, the series overall was a net positive.\u00a0 This probably could have been trimmed down to two books, and the whole hurricane plot that wrapped up this one seemed oddly placed, though I understand the reason for doing so.\u00a0 At least this once again has me thinking of vacations to the Virgin Islands, though that seems unlikely at this point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
