All the love. All the drama. All you missed.

Reeling from the sudden death of Rachel, his beloved wife, Adam has no time to grieve. He has to keep going, for the sake of their baby son.

Jenny moves back in with ex-husband Pete, eight and a half months pregnant with another man’s child. Can their relationship overcome past jealousies?

Karen and David agree to an amicable divorce – but that’s before he sleeps with the divorce lawyer . . .

THE LOST YEARS reveals what happened to your favourite characters between series five and six of the award-winning TV series written by Mike Bullen. It’s an irresistible chance to catch up on all the laughter, the tears, the life lessons we missed while they were gone.

My Review

Cold Feet returned to our screens after a 13 year absence. But what happened to the characters we grew to love during those 13 years?
This is what happened after series 5 but before series 6.
It follows Adam, Jenny, Pete, Karen and David in the months, rather than years, following Rachel’s death.
It is funny eat times and yet also incredibly moving. I laughed and cried unashamedly and I am so pleased with the wonderful way it gives us an insight into what happened ‘after’
I hope that maybe there will be another book as I would love to read more.
100% Worth a read if you are a fan of Cold Feet

The Moon Over Kilmore Quay is the type of novel that is going to take readers on an emotional rollercoaster. The story follows two characters and is told in two different timelines. The main character Bea O’Connor is in the present time in America. Then there are flashbacks to the 90s with Lucy in Kilmore Quay. I enjoyed following along with both of their timelines. I really enjoyed the friendships that were in the book and how supportive they were. With a great pace and some twists and turns that I definitely didn't see coming and then the ending let's just say I won't be forgetting this book anytime soon!

Thank you Random Things Tours and Carmel Harrington for sharing this emotional but beautiful story with me!

The Moon over Kilmore Quay is a book about friends and families. It's a dual time line book with time periods in the present day and the early 90s. The main characters in this book are well written and the plot is a very emotional ride. All of the characters have ties to beautiful Ireland - some by birth and some because they were raised by Irish immigrants. This was a first book for me by this author and it's time to look into her earlier releases

Present Day - Bea has never been to Ireland but because she was raised by grandparents who had immigrated from Ireland and is the daughter of an Irish immigrant, she considers herself Irish at heart.
As the book begins, she receives a copy of a letter that she'd written 18 years earlier to her future self. Her life is very unsettled because she just broke up with the love of her life and she feels that the letter may help her deal with her life today. It certainly opens up a lot of earlier issues for her and send her to Ireland to find out more about her deceased mother's family. She has two close long time friends who are by her side every step of the way while she searches for information about her mother.

1990s - This part of the story is told by Lucy who moved to New York City from Ireland with her sister Maeve. Maeve is adventurous and was looking for new adventures in her life. Lucy was quieter and missed her home in Ireland and her parents. As they learn more about life in NYC and fall in love, their lives take twists and turns that they didn't see coming.

This book is beautiful - it's women's fiction with lots of twists and turns until the final truths that will astound you. I enjoyed learning more about the immigrants as they acclimated to America coming from a small town in Ireland where everyone knew everyone to New York where they knew no one. I also enjoyed reading about Bea and her two friends as well as Lucy and her friends. Women know how important their female friendships are to their lives and the friendships in this book were a major part of the story. This is a wonderful multi-generational story full of family and friends, Irish songs and St. Patrick's Day parades. It made me laugh and it made me cry and I won't soon forget this novel.
