Publication Date: December 18, 2025
‘I’ve never felt so at home in all my life. Ireland isn’t just in my blood; it’s in my heart. But I was mistaken if I thought this safe haven could erase my past…’
When Marian Fleury finds a love letter hidden in her husband Theo’s belongings, her heartbreak puts her on the first plane to Ireland. With her sister Claire’s wedding only a week away, she has the perfect excuse to escape to the Irish coast and decide where her future truly lies…
Marian is shocked by how quickly she adjusts to the beautiful sandy shores, shopping for dresses and collecting roses for the perfect wedding bouquet. As the ocean sparkles before her, the wind soft against her face, she manages to keep the pain Theo has caused her a secret and remembers that as a little girl she always wanted Ireland to be her home.
Yet just as Marian thinks her past is behind her, Theo arrives in town. He begs for her forgiveness, his handsome face and olive skin making her heart race like always, and suddenly she wonders if he might start afresh in the village with her.
But when she stumbles upon the woman her husband was sending letters to, in a beautiful cottage among the wildflowers, Marian learns that Theo has an even bigger secret. Can Marian find the strength to take the next steps in her own life, or is she about to lose everything?
Fans of Mary Alice Monroe, Sheila O’Flanagan and Debbie Macomber will be utterly entranced by this unputdownable second chance romance.
A woman returns to her Irish home for a family wedding and an opportunity to reflect on her failing marriage.
Author Susanne O’Leary serves up the sixth installment of the Magnolia Manor series with The Wife’s Irish Secret. The Fleury family returns with a new story highlighting relationships and long-standing family secrets.
This time, a preview of a book from a bestselling author eerily parallels the Irish family and the matriarch’s scandalous behavior as a young woman. Meanwhile, Marian Fleury can’t believe an airplane conversation could have gone so horribly wrong.
The beauty of the Irish countryside provides a picturesque background as relationships are tested.
The Wife’s Irish Secret weaves a new thread in the charming Magnolia Manor series.
Susanne O’Leary is the bestselling author of more than 20 novels, mainly in the romantic fiction genre. She has also written three crime novels and two in the historical fiction genre. The wife of a former diplomat, she has also been a fitness teacher and a translator.

When she is not scaling the mountains of said counties, or doing yoga, she keeps writing, producing a book every six months.
