Synopsis

Kilteegan Bridge, Co Cork, Ireland. 1975 Lena Kogan is thrilled when her son Emmet invites her to the opening of his first building in San Francisco. It’s awkward that she will be staying with Emmet’s father Malachy Berger, but he’s in a serious relationship now, and anyway, he knows how Lena feels about Eli, so surely they can just be friends. Her sister Emily, is less adventurous. She's happy to stay at home with her family and a thriving business, that is until her daughter Nellie drops another bombshell on her about what she plans to do next. A move nobody could have anticipated and few support. Her brother Jack is living contentedly on his farm with Skipper, until a couple of late-night visitors cause them to risk everything they’ve guarded so carefully. Intervening to help could mean exposure in a state where men like them are on the wrong side of the law, but some things are just too important to ignore. In this final book of The Kilteegan Bridge Story, the O’Sullivans come to a silent understanding of each other and of themselves.

Goodreads review by Morgan

While I loved this entire series so much, the thing that made me a bit sad was all the build up to Malachy and Lena ending up together to only get one page of closure. I would have loved to see either a few chapter of them married or of him courting her and them rekindling their past romance. I was......more

3.5 I don't recommend this as a stand alone read since it is #5 in a series t's always fun for me to read a Jean Grainger novel.
