Family Matters

De: Ellie O'Neill

Narrado por: Caroline Lennon

Contemporary, warm-hearted, funny, poignant and satisfying—for fans of Monica McInerney, Cecelia Ahern and Josephine Moon.

Sometimes life is entirely different from how you dreamed it would be and sometimes that's okay.

For the first time in her seventy-nine years, Evie McCarthy is plagued by the smell of roses. Death is coming for her. Clear as day. She's lucky she has the gift of second sight. It's served her well as Ballyhay's matchmaker, and now she's being forewarned. She just wants enough time to help her daughter and granddaughters realise the important things in life.

Her big-hearted granddaughter Rosie is in love again.

Rosie's married sister, Molly, with two small boys, is sleep-deprived, exhausted and wondering what happened to her life. Motherhood isn't supposed to be like this, is it?

Rosie and Molly's mum, Yvonne, is hiding her own devastating secret.

Between the jigs and the reels, they pull one another up and over and come to understand that sometimes life doesn't play out how you hoped it would. But it is a good life.
