Cassie, the youngest daughter of Sonny and Annette Fitzgerald, is the only family member without the drive for extreme success. As a teen, Cassie knew she wanted to travel, so she trained as a hairstylist so she could work anywhere. Inspired by her grandparents’ visit from Lissbeg, Ireland, Cassie decides she’d like to see where her dad was raised and returns with Pat and Ger Fitzgerald. It’s everything she could have hoped for and harder than she expected, but maybe the upcoming Winter Fest will be just the thing to bring holiday cheer to this small town and the people she’s grown to cherish.
VERDICT Readers will wish they could take part in the highs and lows of Finfarran Peninsula community life. Hayes-McCoy’s quiet story of tight-knit relationships among family members and longtime friends will soothe readers’ frazzled nerves. The expressions of respect and admiration, even when delivered grudgingly, are in tune with the holiday season. [See Prepub Alert, 4/8/19.]
