Unlucky in Love: A Fate-interrupted Romance With A Little Bit Of St. Patrick's Day Magic

Luck doesn’t always arrive how you expect it. Or when you want it.
Fiona O’Shea has a color-coded plan for everything. Her career. Her wedding. Her happily-ever-after with the town’s favorite doctor, Owen. But three days before she’s meant to walk down the aisle, her groom vanishes without a trace. No note. No explanation. Just gone.

Cue the town meltdown.

Kilkenny Falls erupts into speculation. The Mayor spins a heroic excuse. Neighbors gossip over shamrock scones. And somehow Fiona becomes the face of a viral “saintly fiancée” narrative she never asked for. The only person who sees past the polished PR? Dex O’Rourke. Chaotic. Charming. Infuriating. And Owen’s best friend.

Dex insists on helping her survive the fallout. He films. He edits. He smooths disasters she didn’t know she had yet. And every time Fiona’s world tilts, Dex is there with unexpected kindness and a lopsided grin that makes her heart misbehave.

But St. Patrick’s Day is coming. So is the town parade. And when one small misunderstanding snowballs into national attention, Fiona begins to wonder whether fate is rewriting her story… or simply revealing the one she was meant to see.

A runaway groom. A town full of opinions. A slow-burn connection that sneaks up on both of them.
In Kilkenny Falls, luck is never random. Sometimes it’s the second chance you never planned for.

Perfect for readers who love clean romantic comedy, small-town chaos, unexpected tenderness, and a sprinkle of holiday magic.
