DESCRIPTION
‘I’ve never felt so at home in all my life. Ireland isn’t just in my blood; it’s in my heart. But I was mistaken if I thought this safe haven could erase my past…’
When Marian Fleury finds a love letter hidden in her husband Theo’s belongings, her heartbreak puts her on the first plane to Ireland. With her sister Claire’s wedding only a week away, she has the perfect excuse to escape to the Irish coast and decide where her future truly lies…
Marian is shocked by how quickly she adjusts to the beautiful sandy shores, shopping for dresses and collecting roses for the perfect wedding bouquet. As the ocean sparkles before her, the wind soft against her face, she manages to keep the pain Theo has caused her a secret and remembers that as a little girl she always wanted Ireland to be her home.
Yet just as Marian thinks her past is behind her, Theo arrives in town. He begs for her forgiveness, his handsome face and olive skin making her heart race like always, and suddenly she wonders if he might start afresh in the village with her.
But when she stumbles upon the woman her husband was sending letters to, in a beautiful cottage among the wildflowers, Marian learns that Theo has an even bigger secret. Can Marian find the strength to take the next steps in her own life, or is she about to lose everything?
Fans of Mary Alice Monroe, Sheila O’Flanagan and Debbie Macomber will be utterly entranced by this unputdownable second chance romance.
MY THOUGHTS
Marian Fleury’s marriage to Theo wasn’t very happy the past few years. The couple had lived in Australia, but it was never a place Marian quite called home. Spurred on by finding a love letter when going through her husband’s things - and her sister’s upcoming wedding in Ireland - Marian packs her bags. She already feels a weight beginning to be lifted off of her.
Just as she had begun to suspect, being in Ireland gave her a feeling of home. It is familiar, beautiful, and offers Marian a hope for a new life. Just as she is starting to feel everything familiar - Theo shows up - and he wants her back! Meanwhile, Marian apparently has found the woman that Theo was writing to. Her peace continues to be disturbed, even as she has so many possibilities that could be hers.
Romance. Could Marian have found it with a fellow passenger while on route to Ireland? With Theo suddenly showing up, even more secrets being revealed, and her very future to be considered, Marian finds that she has more than one decision to make. This lovely story is the sixth book in the Magnolia Manor series and was just as delightful as all of the previous installments were.
Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
