"From Tracey Lange, the New York Times bestselling author of We Are the Brennans, comes The Connellys of County Down: a story about fierce family loyalty, good intentions gone awry, and the consequences of improbable love. When Tara Connelly is released from prison after serving eighteen months on a drug charge, she knows rebuilding her life at thirty years old won't be easy.

Life becomes even more complicated when the cop who put Tara in prison keeps showing up unannounced, leaving her to wonder what he wants from her now. While she works to build a new career and hold her family together, Tara finds a chance at love in a most unlikely place. But when the Connellys' secrets start to unravel and threaten her future, they all must face their worst fears and come clean or risk losing one another forever. The Connellys of County Down is a moving novel about testing the bounds of love and loyalty.

Tara returns home to her siblings to rebuild her life after serving time for a drug conviction. The cop involved in her arrest keeps coming around. Her brother and sister each have their own problems. Everyone is keeping secrets. What happens when the secrets begin to unravel?
I felt pretty so-so about my excitement for THE CONNELLYS OF COUNTY DOWN when I first read the synopsis. It didn't initially pique my interest very much but I decided to give it a try anyway and I'm glad I did as the book ended up growing on me. I enjoyed the writing style. Despite all of their problems and imperfections, the characters were quite endearing. The plot kept me turning pages to see how everything would turn out for Tara and her siblings. This book does well in exploring loyalty to family as well as loyalty to self.
I unexpectedly enjoyed THE CONNELLYS OF COUNTY DOWN and would recommend it, especially to fans of family dramas.

The Connelly's of County Down by author Tracey Lange is an adult fiction contemporary book set in Ireland. This author previously wrote we the the brennanas, which I have yet to read. I might go back and read it after having read this. This author does a great job of portraying family dynamics at different stages of life. This book follows our main character Tara who goes back home to live with her siblings after getting released from jail. Tara was the most interesting to me and I found the backstory of why she was in jail and what happened to be what really kept me wanting to read. The relationship she had with Brian the detective was also interesting. This book was a little complicated with so many perspectives and the different family members, but once I got further into it I started to understand and piece things together. I would recommend
