The Irish Family Secret: Completely gorgeous, tear-jerking Irish women’s fiction (Emerald Isles)

After ten years away, academic Ginny Kingston returns to Ireland's Roone Bay, her hometown. She carries a secret she has hidden for years—one she fears will devastate those closest to her, particularly Ruari Savage, a mechanic with dark hair and green eyes. The Kingstons and Savages have been neighbouring farming families and bitter rivals for generations. When Ginny is drawn back by work, she becomes determined to uncover the truth behind their family feud and what happened to two young lovers who attempted to bridge the divide over fifty years ago. Ruari, despite their families' history, offers to help her investigation. However, Ruari's assistance comes with a condition: Ginny must reveal why she left so suddenly a decade before. What he does not know is that her secret could destroy the fragile peace their families have begun to build and eliminate any possibility of happiness between them. The novel explores whether Ginny and Ruari can work together to heal old wounds and whether the secrets dividing their families will finally surface or continue to tear them apart.
