With everyNew York Times bestseller, Luanne Rice
illuminates yet another of the secret wonders of the
heart. Her unforgettable evocations of family, friendship,
and loves lost and won in such novels as The Edge of
Winter,Sandcastles, and Summer of Roses give voice to our
most powerful emotions. Now she brings back two of her
most beloved characters to tell of their journey across
the sea to unravel the mysteries of a shared pastand two
undying love affairs....
What Matters Most Sister Bernadette Ignatius has returned
to Ireland in the company of Tom Kelly to search for the
pastand the sonthey left behind. For it was here that
these two long-ago lovers spent a season of magic before
Bernadette's calling led her to a vocation as Mother
Superior at Star of the Sea Academy on the sea-tossed
Connecticut shore.
For Tom, Bernadette's choice meant giving up his fortune
and taking the job as caretaker at Star of the Sea, where
he could be close to the woman he could no longer have but
whom he never stopped loving. And while one miracle drew
them apart, another is about to bring them together again.
For somewhere in Dublin a young man named Seamus Sullivan
is also on a search, dreaming of being reunited with his
own first love, the only "family" he's ever known. They'd
been inseparable growing up together at St. Augustine's
Children's Home, until Kathleen Murphy's parents claimed
her and she vanished across the sea to America.
Now, in a Newport mansion, that very girl, grown to
womanhood, works as a maid and waits with a faith that
defies all reason for the miracle that will bring back the
only boy she's ever loved. That miracle is at handbut like
most miracles, it can come only after the darkest of
nights and the deepest of heartbreaks. For life can be as
precarious as a walk along a cliff, and its greatest
rewards reached only by those who dare to risk
everything...for what matters most.
