This collection brings together three complete sweet second-chance romances set in the Irish villages of Dooncarra, Ballycove, and Ballymara. Three stories about people who loved each other once, lost each other, and found themselves in the same place again with unfinished business and older hearts.
- Hearts Under Renovation — Love in Dooncarra, Book 2
Eimear Walsh never planned to come back to Dooncarra. But newly divorced and out of options, she has returned to save the crumbling family inn... and discovered it needs the best contractor in town. The problem: the best contractor in town is Aidan Flynn. The man she left behind ten years ago without a word of explanation. As the renovations begin, they uncover more than dry rot and dust. There are secrets hidden in the attic, old wounds that never healed, and a spark that a decade apart could not quite extinguish.
A Second Bloom in October — Love in Ballycove, Book 4
Fifty-five-year-old Fiona Doyle treasures her quiet October mornings in Ballycove's Curlew Bookshop, shelves scented with peat smoke and stories. When Seán McGrath, her teenage sweetheart turned celebrated historian, arrives to archive village letters, her orderly empty-nest life tilts. The boy who once promised forever left for academia thirty-eight years ago. Now his rueful smile is doing something very inconvenient to her carefully guarded heart.
A Bealtaine Bonfire Kiss — Love in Ballymara, Book 5
The ancient festival of Bealtaine is for new beginnings, but only if you dare to reach for them. Florist Fiona has built a careful, beautiful life and she knows exactly where everything belongs. Then Seán comes back to Ballymara: heritage carpenter, local historian, the man she almost married years ago. They did not end because the love was gone. They ended because one misunderstanding made them both feel unwanted, and neither was brave enough to ask for the truth.
