Full description for Once in a Lifetime
Kenny's Department Store, with its handsome Edwardian facade and meticulously hand-selected goods, is the jewel in the crown of the small Irish town of Ardagh. Star Bluestone sells her beautifully crafted tapestries at Kenny's. Made with natural dyes, they embody her earthy spirit and creative vision, but she has a special reason for caring about Kenny's that extends far beyond her sales. And for Ingrid Fitzgerald, hotshot political journalist and wife of workaholic David Kenny, the store is the "other woman" in her marriage. With her children leaving home and her career taking off, she is worried that her marriage could be in jeopardy. Charlie Fallon, one of David's staff, is among the first to hear the rumor that the store is faced with a takeover bid. With an owner who doesn't seem his usual self and the threat of closure looming closer--what does the future hold for these women who are bound together by its fortunes?With her expertly drawn characters and heartfelt storytelling, this satisfying novel proves that "Cathy Kelly knows exactly what women want" ( Publishers Weekly ).
