Its tricky for Niamh OFlaherty, growing up in a North London home thats a shrine to all things Irish. But its even trickier being an adult and realizing that her family expects her to settle down with a nice Irish lad, especially now that shes living in Dublin. When Niamh finally meets the love of her life he is the last person she would expect to fall for her. Pierre is older and an intellectual, but she loves his ability to laugh at himself, his calmness and strength of character, and, of course, his stunning looks. Theres just one problem: if Pierres parents - Jean and Fleur - are sniffy about their pride and joy hooking up with a girl who writes a fluffy newspaper column, her parents, Mick and Annie, are going to go ballistic when they hear that their daughter intends to marry someone who couldnt be less Irish if he tried...
