Another hit! I loved it. She has such a way of taking these wonderful characters and weaving a story around them all.
It starts with stuffy, crabby Frank the hospital administrator wanting to sell some land the hospital owns, but being over ridden by the board who wants to turn it into a heart clinic. Enter Clara who is the one chosen to run the heart clinic. She finds all these wonderful people she hires to be part of the clinic.
The think I love is that characters from other books pop up, Fionna from Nights of Rain and Stars is featured prominently. But your able to catch up with other characters from that book as well as many from her other books.
The patients in the clinic also figure prominently as part of the story. While Clara is meaning to set up this heart clinic, she finds herself building a family.
It was a wonderful, heartwarming story. It was also a very quick read.

I love the way Maeve takes ordinary situations and writes these compelling situations around them. She's such a great observer of life and human nature.

This is the only book of Binchy's I haven't read yet. I'm so glad to hear it's good.
