About Always, Galway
Some loves wait a lifetime. Some roads always lead home.
For more than twenty years, Tom Carter and Niamh have been held apart by timing, distance, and the lives they each had to build. A summer in 1986. Letters across the Irish Sea. A city that pulled Tom one way and a home that held Niamh another. Two people who never stopped mattering to each other, and never quite found the moment to say so.
Now, in the place where it all began, that moment has finally come.
Always, Galway is the luminous conclusion to the Galway Girl Trilogy — the story of what happens when two people who have spent half their lives looking back are given, at last, the chance to look forward. It is about the weight of the years and the grace of second chances, about the courage it takes to choose the thing you’ve always wanted, and about the quiet miracle of coming home to the person you were always meant to find.
Set against the windswept beauty of the west coast of Ireland, it moves between all that was lost and all that might still be won, building to an ending that readers who have followed Tom and Niamh from that first Galway summer have waited a lifetime to see.
Tender, aching, and gloriously hopeful, Always, Galway is a love story about time and its mercies — about the long way round, and the person who was worth every mile of it.
Perfect for readers of David Nicholls’s One Day, Mike Gayle, and Sally Rooney’s Normal People.
The unforgettable final novel in the Galway Girl Series.
