It is four years since Martha Ryans world crashed around her. Fleeing to England to
study teaching, she had left everything behind. Her beloved seaside town of Rivers End, her
big sister, Dorothy, and the one man she loves beyond reason.
After the untimely death of her father, she finds a new home in Ireland. There, she
buys a cottage, embarking on a career as a teacher in the small town, and travelling during
every long school holiday. She finds friendships, relationships, and adventures.
But dreams haunt her. Deep down, she longs for her home town in Australia, and to see
Dorothy. Will a life well lived be enough, or is one letter the turning point to risk everything
shes come to love?
