PRAISE
FOR
THE
RUMOR:
"We've said it before and we'll say it again: Hilderbrand is the queen of the summer. Rich people behaving badly--perfect poolside."
—Susannah Cahalan,The New York Post
"It wouldn't be summer without a breezy, sensual Nantucket tale from Hilderbrand, and her latest...doesn't disappoint. Intricately plotted and filled with fast-paced dialogue, it's as sweetly satisfying as a glass of Sancerre."—Kim Hubbard,People
"The story is packed with the details of the wonder that is summer on the small, chic island off the coast of Massachusetts."—Catherine Mallette,The Fort Worth Star-Telegram
"The detail is authentic...Expect to find it filled with all the ingredients of a great chick lit read: many characters with intertwined lives, a handsome guy (in this case a landscape architect), complicated romance, and lots of wine."—Georgea Kovanis,The Detroit Free-Press
"One of the reigning queens of the summer beach book."—The Connecticut Post
"Be forewarned: scandal and swirling tension aside, Elin's descriptions of the idyllic setting in this perfect beach read may inspire readers to book a getaway."—Eric Cupido,Hello! Canada
"Queen of the beach read, and her latest [The Rumor]...is nothing short of a gift."—Lynsey Eidell,Glamour.com
"[The Rumor] explores human nature and the truth behind the gossip that people love to be the first to share."—Laurie Higgins,The Cape Codder
"Elin Hilderbrand, queen of the romance novel, never disappoints her readers--and here she is at the top of her game once again. She details every character superbly, her themes and plotlines are well thought out, and you can picture every scene in your mind so vividly. I readThe Rumorquickly because I needed to know what ultimately happens and had no idea how it was going to end...Rumor has it that you will enjoy this book as much as I did."
