Following the death of her adored
husband, Molly O’Kelly must learn to adapt to a life without him but the
prospect of maintaining a rambling family house and the disorder of her
personal finances fills her with dread. Against the wishes of her daughters, Molly
decides to sell her beloved Mossbawn House and move into a gardener’s cottage. In
the neglected rose garden, Molly starts to find happiness again.
Set against the lovely background
of rural Ireland, this book warms the heart and shows that Molly’s labour of
love in putting the rose garden to rights gives her a reason to open up her heart to
love once again. Filled with a delightful array of characters and rich on
emotion this book takes you on a gentle journey through the pain of loss and
offers hope and the promise of future happiness.
A delightful book in the style of
Maeve Binchy and Cathy Kelly.
My thanks to NetGalley and Random
