A heartwarming and moving story about secrets, fresh starts and the power of friendship, set in the wilds of Ireland's shores. Maeve McKenna is on the verge of a breakdown. Having worked herself into the ground as a sought-after interior designer in London, she's in desperate need of a vacation. Philomena Duffy is a little lonely. After losing her husband, their crumbling mansion, Willow House, feels awfully empty. With the rugged shores of Ireland calling, Maeve visits her aunt Philomena in Sandy Cove, where she once, as a teenager, kissed a wild, mysterious boy - a kiss she has never been able to forget. The beautiful night's sky is dotted with stars as far as the eye can see, and Maeve is worlds away from her chaotic life in the city. As Maeve throws herself into restoring Willow House to its former glory, a deep friendship with Philomena begins to blossom. Surrounded by the faded walls and peeling carpets of the old mansion, together they stumble across a secret that turns their family upside down. All the while, she can't stop thinking about the enigmatic boy from her past, and that magical kiss… Is he still in Sandy Cove? Just as she's beginning to feel at home, reality calls. Part of Maeve can't bear to leave Willow House and its rocky beach. Does she have the courage to leave the security of her old life behind, and put down new roots in Sandy Cove, or is that just a daydream? Fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Debbie Macomber and Mary Alice Monroe will fall head over heels for this stunning read. Readers are absolutely loving Secrets of Willow House: 'Loved it!!!
