As captivating as it is emotionally poignant, this novel is utterly irresistible. The Sunday Express aptly describes it as such.

Tarabeg is a quaint village situated on the scenic West Coast of Ireland. In the aftermath of the Second World War, two women eagerly await the return of their ambitious fiancé, Michael Malone. Among them is Rosie, the local schoolteacher, who is widely believed to be engaged to him. However, a select few possess the knowledge that he has secretly begun to court Sarah, a young woman whose father, a brutal fisherman, would resort to violence if he discovered their relationship.

Rosie and Sarah share a deep affection for Michael, both yearning to become his wife and intertwine their lives in a captivating tale of intertwined secrets, old promises, and emerging rivalries. Michael's decision will have far-reaching consequences for everyone, particularly his young daughter. This marks the beginning of a new series of novels, featuring a remarkable ensemble of characters, and a narrative that will transport readers to Liverpool in Mary Kate and back to Ireland in The Velvet Ribbon.
