The Ballycove Vow

One summer. One chance for love on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way.

Burned-out Dublin coder Eimear Hanly inherits her grandfather’s crumbling sheep farm in Ballycove—but only if she’s married before August. Stoic farmer Aodhán O’Malley can’t secure custody of his orphaned niece without a stable “two-parent” home. A tidy, paper-only answer seems obvious: a marriage of convenience, no strings, no feelings.

Yet under the golden skies of Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, renovating the old cottage, sharing seaside picnics, and swapping midnight stories ignite a slow-burn spark neither of them expected. Keeping their arrangement strictly business proves harder than fencing sheep. Eimear plans to flip the farm and sprint back to tech life, but Ballycove’s rolling fields—and Aodhán’s steadfast kindness—start claiming space in her code-cluttered heart.

When a sharp-eyed social worker digs into their whirlwind wedding, every shared glance and almost-kiss risks exposing the ruse. Aodhán can’t lose his niece; Eimear won’t survive another abandonment. To stay together, they must risk the one clause their contract never mentioned: real love.

Will a forged promise shatter three fragile hearts—or blossom into Ballycove’s sweetest midsummer miracle?
