Synopsis

Love, life and friendship ... No one captures it better than No. 1 bestseller Cathy Kelly.

Good times or bad, friends are always there . . .

They’re friends for life . . . and life is for living.

In the picturesque harbor tour of Dunmore, four friends are facing hard times. Abby’s TV career is taking off, but her marriage to Tom is rocky. Meanwhile, her teenage daughter Jess despairs of ever finding a boyfriend. Lizzie has time for everyone – her family and friends, but never for herself. And Erin, married and back in Ireland after eight years in Chicago, is finding it hard to face up to her past.

When tragedy strikes, it rocks the small town. Drawn together in their sadness, the four women suddenly realize what is important – life is for living and they must grab it with both hands.

Good times or bad, friends are always there
Abby's TV career is taking off and now she and her husband, Tom, can have the life they've dreamed of in the lovely town of Dunmore. But after seventeen years of marriage, when you're feeling taken for granted, an old boyfriend can spell danger... Abby's daughter, Jess, thinks being a teenager is the worst thing ever. While her classmates are blossoming into confident women, she's too scared to smile at the boy she likes. Is she ever going to catch up? Lizzie has time for everybody: her friends in Dunmore, her grown-up children, even her ex-husband. Then Myles finds someone new and Lizzie starts to wonder if there's anyone out there for her. Erin follows her husband home to Ireland from Chicago to help his career. But is she ready for small-town life? And how can she tell Greg why she doesn't want to see the family she left behind years ago? Then tragedy touches the four women. As they draw together in their sadness, they realize that life is for living, and they have to grab it in both hands...
