Description
When Laine Forrester travels to France to attend her longtime friend s vineyard wedding, she expects to find a bride on the brink of a fairy-tale life. But after a series of unforeseen setbacks-a devastating diagnosis, a castle restoration put on hold, and the emergence of deep-seated family dynamics that threaten to derail the new couple s fledgling marriage-it seems the storybook life Laine had imagined for her friend-and once, for herself-is suddenly crumbling before her eyes.
With hopes of resurrecting a happy ending for one of them, Laine throws support behind her friend and agrees to accompany the couple to the groom s family home in Ireland, where the merging of a mysterious inheritance, long-buried wounds, and a fractured family set out to upend the trip from the start. It s in the unlikely corners of a historic Dublin pub, and across the wide-open moors bordering Ireland s majestic Wicklow Mountains, that Laine is slowly drawn in by the land and the people, sparking hope for something she never imagined possible: the courage to heal. But with secrets of her own-and a heart afraid to trust again-Laine must determine how much she s willing to risk in mending the broken places within herself, and whether she believes that even through the depths of our pain, a beautiful story can emerge.
Set in three time-periods-the revolutionary era of the late eighteenth century, Ireland s turbulent Easter week of the 1916 Rising, and present day- Castle on the Rise weaves a story of legacy, conviction, and redemption against the backdrop of Dublin s storied streets, and the stretch of Ireland s stunning emerald shores. It raises the question: given the choice between the fairy tale or a life of truly anchored faith-which legacy would you choose?
