Ava Connors is comfortable with her life just as it is, still living in the tiny terrace house where she was brought up by her grandmother, the formidable Maggie, seeing her long-term boyfriend, Finlay, and working in Blooming Dale’s Florists. But Maggie’s health is declining and Finlay is fed up waiting for Ava to make a commitment. What happens when the relationship you have taken for granted is suddenly over?

Ava has never really known her mother, Scarlett, a singer-songwriter who chased her dreams. When Ava inherits an old and dilapidated house, it ignites an interest in the mother who had abandoned her as a child. She begins to question her background, wondering why her mother left her to be brought up by her grandmother, Maggie.

 

 

Praise for A Posy of Promises

Bestselling writer Claire Allan:

‘Sharon Dempsey writes with such warmth and affection it's hard not to be bowled over by her cast of characters as they deal with all life throws at them. Please tell me there will be a follow up and we will get to see what happens next? I think there is so much more to come from these women. Sharon writes Belfast so well, I almost felt as if I was there and I could really picture myself in Moonstone and in the big house on Mount Pleasant Square. I'd love to sit with a cuppa in that back garden! I think this would make a fab TV series - it has so many heart-warming ingredients.’
