A captivating new novel from the Irish bestseller about friendship, love and learning to live your best life.
Perfect for fans of Faith Hogan, Sheila O'Flanagan and Laura Pearson.
Is it ever too late to reclaim the life you never lived?
After losing her mother and being abandoned by the man she believed was her forever, Rosie O'Malley stopped truly living. Burying her grief and heartbreak, she poured everything into running Sandycove's Cliff Top Hotel, determined to protect her mother's legacy and keep her family afloat.
Ten years later, the hotel is preparing to host its very first wedding.
Patrick Power arrives home from Boston for his brother Seán's big day, having spent the last decade building a successful Irish restaurant business. But success hasn't helped him forget the woman he left behind.
Then comes the shock: the wedding venue is Cliff Top - Rosie's hotel. The girl he never stopped loving.
As Sandycove basks in a summer heatwave, Patrick must navigate family celebrations while confronting the past he tried to outrun. And Rosie must face a harder truth - has she been living her late mother's life instead of her own?
Can she forgive Patrick for leaving? Or will ambition, responsibility and old wounds once again stand in the way of love?
Set in the heart of Dublin's Sandycove Bay, this is an uplifting story about second chances, friendship, family and finding the courage to follow your own dreams.
