It Was Only Ever You
It Was Only Ever You

Love, ambition, and music intertwine across oceans.

Think of the magic that old records seem to carry, the kind of soul-stirring music that sends shivers down your spine. "It Was Only Ever You" captures that feeling but in written form, weaving together the lives of three women bound by their love for one charismatic singer. As their stories unfold across the vibrant backdrops of Ireland and New York, you get to waltz through the complex dance of love, ambition, and heartache in an era that felt both simpler and yet charged with possibility. It's the kind of book that makes you want to find your own Patrick Murphy, in whatever form that may be.

Description

Set in late 1950s Ireland and New York, this is the story of three women and the charismatic man with whom their lives are interwoven. Patrick Murphy has charm to burn and a singing voice to die for. Many people will recognise his talent. Many women will love him. Rose, the sweetheart he leaves behind in Ireland, can never forget him and will move heaven and earth to find him again, long after he has married another woman. Ava, the heiress with no self-confidence except on the dance floor, falls under his spell. And tough Sheila Klein, orphaned by the Holocaust and hungry for success as a music manager, will be ruthless in her determination to unlock his extraordinary star quality. But in the end, Patrick Murphy's heart belongs to only one of them. Which one will it be?
