Product Description
Only after returning from his well attended funeral did Fiona Bailey realise
just how much she would miss Davey Love. Despite her initial doubts and
prejudices about this rough-hewn Irishman, towards the end of his life she
had discovered qualities about him she had previously overlooked; and that she
could talk to him and appreciate hisconsiderable wit. Above all, though, it
was his inherent kindness that she had failed to discern when she and her
husband first met Davey and his wayward son Sammy.
The Baileys, Bill and Fiona, lived in the Tyneside town of Fellburn where Bill
was a successful building contractor' Years before he had met and married
Fiona, a young widow with her own lovable family, to which they had shortly
added by adoption the orphaned Mamie. Then, when one of Fiona's children,
'Willie, acquired a new friend, Sammy, it was he and his father Davey who, by one
means or another, were able to make a special contribution to the lives and
fortunes of the Bailey family. Now, with Davey gone, there would be
new challenges to face. It had been agreed that Sammy would live with them
- but would this formidable lad with his colourful language fit in as a fully-fledged
member of the Bailey family? As for Fiona, it was she who bore the brunt of
the arguments and disagreements that were an inevitable part of life in the
Bailey household. Whatever life had in store, however, she knew she could
always rely on Bill, that rock of a man with a rough tongue but a heart of gold.
