Synopsis

A light-hearted collection of short stories that includes tall tales of Irish immigrants and Irish Americans who are all named Rose. Each Rose manages to get into a bit of trouble or is in the company of someone who leads her down the path to a sticky situation. The Irish never seem to dabble in half measures or run from an argument. All of the Irish Roses are tenacious and it is through their own ability that they meet and solve challenges facing them.
