RRP: £6.99 Pages: 454 Paperback Novel Fiction This is a typical 'novel' - predictable characters, 'samey' storylines, easy reading - but enjoyable all the same. Reading a book like this is kind of like going for a Mc Donalds instead of a restaurant meal - sometimes quick & easy & tasty is all you need, even if it isn't doing you any good!
Izzie Silver left the small Irish town of Tamarin behind for New York. Life is good - until she breaks her own rules and falls for a married man.
On the other side of the ocean, Izzie's aunt Anneliese discovers the pain of infidelity for herself.
Then Lily, the wise and compassionate family matriarch, is taken ill. Back in Ireland, Izzie discovers a past her grandmother has never spoken of, while Anneliese feels the one person she could have turned to is starting to slip away.
