In this wonderful collection of interlinked short stories Sheila O'Flanagan transports her readers to the Caribbean island resort of White Sands, where visitors arrive hoping their dreams will come true - which they sometimes do. In touching, poignant and delicious tales of life by the ocean, Sheila introduces some of the most likeable and interesting characters she's created. There's Tara, who's arrived with the man she wants to marry only to find that a rejected lover is planning to get in the way; Grainne, who's been sent with her husband by their children to celebrate the anniversary of a shotgun wedding twenty-five years earlier, and who thinks the time has come to move on - or has it? Rudy's on an idyllic break with his young son which is set for an unexpected ending; and Isobel - of ISOBEL'S WEDDING - has arrived with no idea that her ex-lover Nico might be staying just next door. Romance is very much alive in the hot Caribbean nights.
Sheila O'Flanagan is the author of many bestselling novels, including The Women Who Ran Away, Her Husband’s Mistake, The Missing Wife, All For You (winner of the Irish Independent Popular Fiction Book of the Year Award) and Three Weddings and a Proposal, as well as the bestselling short story collections The Moment We Meet, The Season of Change, and Christmas With You.
Sheila has always loved telling stories, and after working in banking and finance for a number of years, she decided it was time to fulfil a dream and give writing her own book a go. So she sat down, stuck ‘Chapter One’ at the top of a page, and got started. Sheila is now the author of over twenty bestselling titles. She lives in Dublin with her husband.
