Return to the Irish Boarding House

The Irish Boarding House, Book 2

De: Sandy Taylor

Narrado por: Aoife McMahon

Mary Kate takes a deep breath as she stands outside 24 Merrion Square with its red front door and pretty rose garden. Grieving from her recent heartbreak, will returning to the Irish boarding house be the second chance she so desperately needs?

Dublin, 1956: When Mary Kate Ryan loses the love of her life, she’s not sure how she can keep going. Feeling completely lost, she allows her friend Moira Kent to persuade her to re-open the Boarding House for Single Ladies where she made so many memories and created a safe place for women in need. Now, it’s Mary Kate who needs to start over.

As Mary Kate sits by the large bay window, with her little dog Guinness by her feet, she realizes there are others who need her help. Can Mary Kate and Moira uncover the mystery surrounding their new guest? And can they provide a home for two orphan sisters?

Soon, Mary Kate breathes new life into the boarding house and learns that family can be formed in all sorts of ways. Clever, kind Moira is like the sister she never had, and Moira’s sweet, adopted ten-year-old daughter Abby means the world to both of them. And being back in Merrion Square brings Mary Kate the laughter and joy that she never dreamed she’d experience again.

But when a devastating secret about Abby’s birth mother begins to unravel, it threatens to destroy the happiness of her patchwork family. Mary Kate must gather her strength to protect the future of the boarding house—and to stop darling Abby being taken from them.

I’m just gonna say it was sad

I am uncomfortable with the accents and I am just filling it with words to keep you guys happy

Excellent series

The Irish Boarding House and Return to the Irish Boarding House are full of characters who become "so alive" they are like people you know. Their lives are rich in many ways. It was a pleasure to spend the hours with them.

Wonderful and refreshing!

I finally found another author that I love and whose writing is beautiful, lyrical, and makes you fall in love with the characters.

Another Sweet Story

Like the first book, I just love to have bunch of story lines that come together. I love that this is a book about women supporting women with no shame or conditions. I just love Eliza and she made me LOL multiple times.

Inspiration at its best!

This second book of the story of the Irish Boarding House, fulfilled the purpose of the first book. All those who lived there, found life. Hope endured for each and love was found when all else seemed lost.
