A summer in Seattle, a charming little shop, and a once-in-a-lifetime chance at a new life...
In this sparkling prequel, Dublin girl Emma Carey jumps at the opportunity to start fresh in America-her old friend Fitzwilliam has offered her a job running a picturesque Irish shop near the shimmering waters of Puget Sound.
At 30, she's always played it safe, yet the shop sounds perfect-plus Emma's wise (and rather mystical) younger sister Hazel is all for it. But arriving in Seattle, Emma discovers the shop isn't at all what she imagined--the place is actually a disaster, and Fitz isn't quite up for a makeover job.
As Emma begins to transform the shop, she discovers it's full of potential...and surprises. Just like the future that awaits her...
Brimming with heart and humor, The Little Irish Gift Shop is the first book of the Emma Carey Trilogy, the beginning of Emma's unforgettable journey to her heart's desire. This prequel may start in Seattle, but it's very much part of the cozy world of Ballydara, in County Galway, Ireland.
Susan Colleen Browne's Village of Ballydara series, set in a quaint Irish village, are warmhearted novels of enduring friendships, family dynamics, and falling in love. The sequels to The Little Irish Gift Shop are now available: Becoming Emma and The Fairy Cottage of Ballydara!
