Secrets on Summer Street

Past Secrets by Cathy Kelly is the latest offering from one of Ireland's favorites. Summer Street is a pleasant community of neighbors in Dublin where goodness and good intentions still can't protect you from the vagaries of life, like falling in love unexpectedly, or keeping secrets from those you love the most—with sometimes devastating effects. Christie Devlin lives at number 34, where the garden she's created out of nothing is the envy of everyone who sees it, along with her strong, happy marriage to James. A cloud is looming on the horizon, however, in the form of a dashing figure from Christie's past, a figure who could threaten everything and bring her world crumbling around her. At number 32, hard-working single mum Faye Reid is devastated when her daughter Amber—bright and talented—flings away her future for the love of a ragged musician. And at number 48, Maggie Maguire has come home to her parents after the collapse of her long-term live-in relationship with a dashing Galway professor. Tenderly rendered, surprisingly earthy at times, Past Secrets is a delightful story about good people trying to get it right.
