Sisters Rio and Dervla, are reunited at their father Frank's funeral, having been estranged since the death of their mother twenty years ago. Rio is a free-spirited, artistic type; she has juggled single parenthood with a career as Jack-of-all-trades for two decades. Meanwhile Dervla is an ambitious estate agent, a dedicated career woman; property is her raison d'etre. Their father's 19th century house overlooking the postcard pretty fishing harbour in Lissamore in the west of Ireland, has remained unchanged since the girls' mother died. While clearing the place out before the funeral, Rio and Dervla come across a suitcase containing passionate love letters to their mother from a man named Patrick. It is plain from the letters that Patrick — not Frank — was Rio's natural father. As if this shock isn't enough to bear, it transpires that Rio has been cut out of her father's will. Although Devela gifts her sister a portion of Frank's estate, Rio feels at a loss when the rest of her family leave home. The arrival of Adair Burke — the divorced millionaire — brings back some excitement into her life.Meanwhile Adair's daughter, Izzy, finds herself falling for Rio's son, Finn during a chance meeting in Thailand. A sparkling mix of warm characters, breath-taking location and issues such as empty nest syndrome, old flames and finding a place you can truly call home combine in this must-read blockbuster.
