Synopsis: One Irish family. Three decades. One dazzling story.

In the courtyards of Trinity College, Dublin, in 1978, aspiring actress Maeve meets pottery student Murtagh Moone. As their relationship progresses, marriage and motherhood come in quick succession, but for Maeve, with the joy of children also comes the struggle to hold on to the truest parts of herself.

Decades later, on a small Irish island, the Moone family are poised for celebration but instead are struck by tragedy. Each family member must find solace in their own separate way, until one dazzling truth brings them back together. But as the Moone family confront the past, they also journey toward a future that none of them could have predicted. Except perhaps Maeve herself. (Synopsis from Goodreads)

My Thoughts: This is a story that really focuses on family and how two people make that happen, through good times and bad. Maeve and Murtagh meet, they fall in love, and they make their home on a small, isolated Irish island. We also journey into the future and follow the Moone family who find themselves struck by tragedy.

Helen Cullen really does write a beautiful story. I really enjoyed it. I liked how everything came together in the end. I also really enjoyed the setting of the story.

It was a really sweet story of love, family, and sticking together through tough times. It's a good one. I'm glad I got to read it.
