Pamela Kelley
Pamela Kelley is a general fiction author best known for her women’s fiction, suspense, and family sagas books. Most of her books are regarded as feel-good reads with characters that readers would love to meet in real life. The bestselling author lives in a seaside town close to Vape Cod, which explains her preference for idyllic coastal town settings in most of her novels. Kelly is an avid reader, and when she is not engaged in books, she enjoys making good food and sharing the recipes she comes up with.
The Nantucket Inn
The Nantucket Inn is the first book in the Nantucket Beach Plum Cove series. This book introduces you to Lisa Hodges, a woman in her early fifties forced to make some significant lifestyle changes. Lisa is shocked to discover that her late husband was a gambling addict. By the time of his death, her husband had spent most of their savings, leaving Lisa with little to live on in this expensive beach town. Since Lisa hasn’t held a job for over thirty years, she is considered unemployable with little in-demand skills to offer in the market. For a time, Lisa thinks that the only way out of her situation is selling her home and moving off to a cheaper location.
When a friend offers a different suggestion, Lisa jumps on the idea. The thought of converting part of her home to bed and breakfast sounds scary, but it would be a great way to put her entertaining and cooking skills into good use. Lisa wants her venture to succeed so she can maintain her home and stay close to her children. Even though Lisa has her children’s full support, she doesn’t want to depend on them since they also have their own problems to deal with.
Her firstborn daughter, Kate, has a great career as a writer in Boston. Kate works for a popular magazine and is engaged to a handsome photographer even though no one in the family has met him. Kate’s twin Kristen is a local artist who is happy to date an older, separated businessman. However, their relationship is not stable. Lisa’s son Chase owns a construction business and lives a carefree life. Her youngest child, Abby, is married to her high school sweetheart, and the couple has been trying for a baby without any success. Abby feels like this could be a sign that her marriage is not as perfect as everyone thinks it is.
Join Lisa, her children, and friends in Nantucket and get to witness firsthand the effect that her business has on those around her. The author covers most aspects of life, and with realistic problems going through real-like problems, this reads like a true story. All characters are likable. Eventhough the decisions they make are odd, it is easy to identify with them and understand their perspective. A huge chunk of this book covers Lisa and Kate’s life, and it is fun meeting these two women and getting to know them better. If you are into contemporary women fiction, you will love The Nantucket Inn. There is theme of romance in it, making the book perfect for readers who enjoy a well-told love story.
The Restaurant
The Restaurant tells the story of three sisters and the inheritance that changes their lives. Mandy, Jill, Emma are three sisters living in different parts of the world, even though they were brought up together in Nantucket. Mandy is the only one who was left behind in the beautiful beach town of Nantucket. After she and her high school boyfriend, Cory, graduated from Boston College, they married, and Mandy stayed in Nantucket while Cory joined a successful firm in Boston. Two children later, Cory moved back home, where he started a hedge fund. Everything might have been perfect, were it not for Mandy who wanted to do more with her life now that the kids were older, but her husband did not want her to work. Things get messier when she discovers a second phone in her husband’s gym bag.
Jill is a co-owner of a research firm, and she enjoys her glamorous life in Manhattan. Now in her mid-thirties, Jill has never married, but she owns a corner condo that offers breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the entire city. While everyone suspects that Jill and her partner Nick are in some romantic relationship, the two are nothing but great colleagues. Nick actually enjoys his bachelorhood in NYC and all the perks that come with his status. Emma is a school teacher in Arizona. The elementary teacher is also an aspiring photographer. Emma and her husband, Peter, a college professor, met in grad school. After 15 years in marriage, Emma can feel Peter growing distant even though she cannot really tell what is going on. Her life turns upside down when Peter shares a surprising secret.
When the girls’ grandmother Ethel passes on, she leaves them her Nantucket home and her Restaurant. Mimi’s Place is one of the most popular eateries in Nantucket, and the girls are shocked to learn that their grandmother was the silent owner. The hotel is left equally to Mandy, Emma, Jill, and Paul, who has been the hotel’s chef for over fifteen years. However, there is a catch. The girls must work in the Restaurant for a year, or Paul would take their shares. How can the girls work with a man who broke one of their hearts? Is this a condition all the girls can fulfill considering the current issues they are dealing with?
The Restaurant is a heartwarming story that is sure to leave a smile on your face. All the characters are lovable, and it is great getting to know them better as they go through different life situations. Curious to know which decision the girls take and what happens after that? You will have to read this book to the end. If you are looking for a cozy and light summer read, this book is perfect.

Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know!
i just read one of the author’s books nantucket inn for the first time. i was okay with the story line until you had kristen go back to her lowlife boyfriend. shame on the author. women authors need to show strong female characters instead of doing the wrong thing. very disappointing you have her return to a man she caught cheating esp once the other women was pregnant. spoiled my enjoyment of an otherwise lovely story
I not what you would call reader. I came across one of you books and now I’m hooked. I can’t wait to go to the next book and loving it. You are so awesome. I am hooked. Loved the series Montana and now Nantucket. They are so relaxing so good. Billionaire baby was good too. Everyone I smile at the end. Awesome job 👏👍
I heard somewhere that there is to be the following books by you? I have no idea where I found this but had made a note. True??? Read all your books!
SUMMER AT THE RESTAURANT, FIFTH AVENUE APARTMENT, NANTUCKET HOMES, AND SECOND HOTEL BOOK !!!
THANKS, DONNA.
I just finished reading Plymouth Undercover, and I loved it. Was wondering if this is going to be part of a series, and if it is when can I expect the next book to be released?
Carol
Hi Carol – no second book has been announced yet but yes it is expected to be part of a series.
I want to read gilded girl but I cannot find it anywhere to buy!! Help!!
It doesn’t look like that one was ever released. I was unable to find out why.
Thanks for asking Marjorie and Graeme, Gilded Girl will be released hopefully either later March or early April–once I have a firm date, I’ll announce and put the preorder up. It was delayed for health reasons….I no longer do preorders now until my books are totally ready. Thanks again! Pam
Good to know in regard to preorders Pam. Hope everything is okay health wise! Wishing you the best.
Am I dreaming or have you written a book entitled Nantucket News? It seems to me I read something about this book. I really enjoyed your Beach Plum Cove series!!
Thanks for writing!!
JoAnn
Pamela said she is working on that one a couple of months ago. No publication date or anything yet.
Hi JoAnn and Graeme, am just seeing this now and maybe you’ve already found it, but Nantucket News released end of September. =) Thank you for reading! Pam
