Maeve Binchy
An emotional story of love, betrayal, friendship, and family from #1 New York Times bestselling author Maeve Binchy.David Power and Clare O'Brien both grew up dreaming of escape from the battered seaside town of Castlebay, Ireland, but they might as well have had the ocean between them.

When they both go to university in Dublin—he as a matter of course, she on a hard-won scholarship—their worlds collide. They find freedom in each other—until the families, lovers, and secrets they left in Castlebay come back to haunt them...“Laughter and tears, it’s what Binchy does best.”—San Francisco Chronicle Book Review“The Castlebay Maeve Binchy creates is a marvelous place.”—The New York Times Book Review

"When I first started to read this book......I really didn't want to and so it took me 2 mos. to finally get into reading it....I have NO IDEA why I didn't want to read it......it ended up being one of those books that you just can't put down.....I LOVED IT!!! I loved the characters with all their flaws and the world they had created for themselves in Castlebay, Ireland. Maeve Binchey is a wonderful writer and author....she makes you lose yourself in her books and actually feel as though you are there sharing the ups and downs of her characters.I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading about Ireland....romance......fascinating characters......and simply reading great books!"
