About this listen

 It began with Benny Hogan and Eve Malone, 2 inseparable young Irish women, growing up in the village of Knockglen. Benny, an only child, yearning to break free from her adoring parents and Eve, an orphan, abandoned to be raised by nuns, seemed an unlikely pair. Together, Eve and Benny knew the sins and secrets behind every villager's lace curtains...except their own.

The pair becomes a circle when Benny and Eve leave for university in Dublin, and meet beautiful Nan Mahon and Jack Foley, a doctor's handsome son. But heartbreak and betrayal would bring the worlds of Knockglen and Dublin into explosive collision. Long-hidden lies would emerge to test the meaning of love and the strength of ties held within the fragile gold bands of a...Circle Of Friends.

Profile Image for The order is here except the driver completely ignored the instructions! You can see in the snapshot he left it in full view in the lobby! I had to go down to the lobby and carry it up. I am old and sick from cancer and chemo. That is wrong, that's why such specific directions! I'm very unhappy!

My all time favorite Author💖

Every novel is like getting together with an old friend for tea and fluffy pink cupcakes💖

Where’s the Rest?

If I knew the whole book wasn’t going to be narrated, I wouldn’t have gotten it. I feel it’s a waste of $16.00. Not pleased with this purchase.
