The Lost Promise of Ireland

Starlight Cottages, Book 3

By: Susanne O'Leary

Narrated by: Jennifer Fitzgerald

A completely gorgeous story about lost loves and small-town secrets that will sweep you away to the Irish coast.

Maggie remembers her summers in the village of Sandy Cove in Ireland like they were yesterday. She and her family would swim in the crystal-clear waters, collect beautiful seashells and relax on the sand. So when she sees that her family's old coastguard cottage is available, she wonders if renting it for the summer will finally help her move on from the man who just broke her heart.

As soon as Maggie arrives she is delighted to find her childhood best-friend Sorcha and Sorcha's cousin Brian still living in town. They enjoy cosy nights in the local harbour pub, with its stunning views across the ocean, as if no time has passed. And when Brian reveals he had a fierce teenage crush on Maggie, she can't help but notice just how handsome he has become.

But then Maggie finds a worn metal box hidden in the attic of the house, full of love letters she exchanged with a sweet American boy she met one summer. During their last night together, star-gazing on the beach, they promised to find each other again. Soon it becomes clear that Maggie is not the only one returning to Sandy Cove.

Torn between her growing feelings for Brian and the romance she's held in her heart for many years, Maggie realises that her summer may be more complicated than she'd expected. Will Maggie finally find a true love who can sweep her off her feet or will this holiday in Sandy Cove be her last?

Fans of Mary Alice Monroe, Sheila O'Flanagan and Debbie Macomber will fall head over heels for this enchanting, feel-good romance.

Deceit Never Wins Out.

A nice love story that takes place in Ireland. I have enjoyed this whole series. Nice to see old characters here.

Enjoyable!! East read.

While I enjoyed the book because I love Ireland, the Irish accent in a good love story, The storyline was quite predictable. It could’ve been written with a bit more mystery and intrigue.

Another great read

The story is beautifully, read, and told, with the lovely Irish twang. I have enjoyed all three books, I am looking forward to the next series. The characters have been of all ages, which is very refreshing 👍 with some wholesome, beautiful life’s intertwining, with past & present, romance, and every day real life drama in a small town.

When u think love not there u find it

Love it all! Romance will find you! Puppies do help show u what love is!

I love this series. The narrator is spectacular!

Love the descriptive writing…I feel like I’m there. The characters of Sandy Cove become friends. A nice escape read. (If you’re longing for Ireland, it’s perfect.)
