The Rebound

Catherine Walsh’s book “The Rebound” is a charming romantic comedy. The narrative centers on Abby Reynolds, a recent single who lost both her job and her fiance. Carrying some very important secrets, she finds herself returning to her childhood home in rural Ireland rather than enjoying coffee in her Manhattan loft apartment. She meets the extraordinarily attractive Luke on her travels, and he offers to give her a ride home.

She has no idea that Luke is the lad next door from her early years and not at all a stranger. Readers will laugh and fall in love as the book skillfully blends humor, romance, and self-discovery as Abby navigates her feelings and the truth about her background.
