Hearts of Ardoran
Wataru Lennard

WATARUCity slickers Emma and Marcus have lived by the clock for too long – until an unexpected offer of an off-grid Irish isle offers them a second chance at real life. At seventy eight chapters, Wataru weaves a moving tale of two overworked spouses fleeing Chicago's concrete jungle for Ardoran's windswept cliffs, stone cottages, and tight-knit community. From frantic boardroom calls to storm-forged bonds, from midnight strategy sessions by latern light to heartwarming festivals under summer stars, Emma and Marcus rebuild more than roofs and fences – they rebuild themselves. Rich with humor, lush island description, and unforgettable characters, Hearts of Ardoran is a celebration of resilience, belonging, and the courage it takes to plant new roots in unexpected soil.
