Weaving a Life

If you open your heart, magic can happen.

Life has been tough for Carol Schneider, an elementary school teacher and mom to three sons, but she keeps rebounding. First it was the divorce that thrust her into single parenthood and left her to cope with her sons' emotional fallout. Then it was breast cancer. Just when things seem to be smoothing out, Carol must confront her ex-husband who disagrees with her strategy to get their rebellious teenage son back on the straight and narrow.

At the urging of friends, Carol decides on a drastic course of action to reconnect with her son and evaluate the direction her own life is going in. Standing up to her controlling ex-husband and convincing a sullen teen to go along with her plan is the first challenge, but worth every bit of effort when they arrive at the rustic bed and breakfast on a remote island off the coast of Ireland.

While Carol fills her days with weaving classes that reignite her love of the craft, her son builds new friendships and connections hiking, fishing, and exploring the rugged coastline and village. Charming Irishman Quinn O'Connor, a widower who lost his wife to cancer, touches their lives in unexpected ways with far-reaching implications.

As Carol awakens to a mysterious sense of belonging, she learns of a centuries-old legend about leprechauns, lost gold, and fairies. Only when the stolen treasure is returned will the curse haunting the island finally be lifted.

Is the powerful Irish magic just folklore or will the changes in her son and the promise of new love make Carol a believer?
