About this listen

You'll find a warm welcome in the latest audiobook from Ali McNamara, best-selling author of The Little Flower Shop by the Sea and From Notting Hill with Love, Actually.

One summer, property seeker Serendipity Parker finds herself on the beautiful west coast of Ireland, hunting for a home for a wealthy Irish client. But when she finds the perfect house in the small town of Ballykiltara, there's a problem: nobody seems to know who owns it. The Welcome House is a local legend. Its front door is always open for those in need of shelter, and there's always a plentiful supply of food in the cupboards for the hungry or poor.

While Ren desperately tries to find the owner to see if she can negotiate a sale, she begins to delve deeper into the history and legends that surround the old house and the town. But for a woman who has always been focussed on her work, she's remarkably distracted by Finn, the attractive manager of the local hotel. But will she ever discover the real truth behind the mysterious Welcome House? Or will the house cast its magical spell over Ren and help her to find true happiness?

As Jan said .. not this time

Unfortunately I didnt get to the end of the story as there was just nothing interesting about it, even though it sounded good in the preview. 2 women searching for a house for their client ... find perfect but mysterious house, meet a nice man etc ... but nothing interesting really happened to keep me interested.

Ahhh the legend of. UGH

The welcome house. Nobody knows, and no one listening cares. Wants greedy grubby hands on it! The realtor chick is tone deaf, and aggravating. I am going to return this....slow tedious and boring. The legend of the who gives AF. 😏

Not this time

I love Ali McNamara's books usually but this one just did not do it. It started out a bit ordinary but as I read it got worse. I tried hard to persevere but simply could not finish it. The storyline was ridiculous. One of the most boring books I have read.
