Morning Light

Morning Light is a romance that begins in the year 1950, when Ian and Leah, two young children and neighbors in the west coast village of Belmullet, Ireland attend the grand wedding of Ian's older sister. Their childhood romance matures into a lasting and passionate bond as they experience the festivals, teen apprenticeships and the native beauty of their coastal village. Ian learns the skills of a locksmith working in the village hardware store and Leah tends flowers with her mother in the florist section of the village market. Ian journeys off to America before his twentieth birthday, taking little money and vast ambition, energy and love for his sweetheart in Ireland. He finds a way to buy a small locksmith shop in Norwood, Bronx, to bring Leah to the New World and to start a hardware store business. Leah opens a florist shop in the building beside him. Like the Botanical Gardens nearby, their marriage is filled with seasonal change; children, work, the struggle to overcome tragedy and to nurture rich possibilities for everlasting color and beauty.
