Description

For her thirtieth birthday, Irish girl Grainne Larkin wants three things: her mother's love, a baby, and her old flame Rafe Byrne—not necessarily in that order. On Rafe's wedding day (of course he's marrying a rich, gorgeous American blonde), brash, irreverent Grainne, who hides her tender heart, is keen for a fresh start. Why not settle for the nice guy in the wings who's successful, and mad about her too?

Yet the Larkin family, as usual, complicates her plans…Grainne's oldest sister pressures her to leave Dublin for the quaint little village of Ballydara, to help their mother Eileen launch a B&B. Given her turbulent relationship with her mam, the last thing Grainne wants to do is live with her.

But when Rafe turns up in Ballydara a free man, Grainne takes a page from her favorite fictional heroine Scarlett O'Hara and plunges into a no-holds-barred pursuit of her lifelong dream. Yet Grainne may discover that opening her heart—to Rafe, to the prospect of motherhood, and to her mother—is the biggest risk of all…

Sparkling banter, family secrets, big lies…Mother Love is a deeply romantic Irish beach read!

Susan Colleen Browne's Village of Ballydara series, set in a sleepy Irish village, features warm, feel-good novels about love, friendship and family--includingThe Galway Girls (Book 4), a warmhearted tale of women's friendship and discovering love where you least expect it.
 

"Mother Love, a romantic Irish story set in the colorful Village of Ballydara, vividly portrays a written slice of contemporary life in Ireland…a story of love, growth, and healing—with a good dose of Irish humor to make it a fun and entertaining read."        —Chanticleer Reviews
