Rate this book
Aisling and Quinn O'Mara-Moran. Their prayers have been answered, and Aisling's in the family way, but she hadn't banked on her first trimester being so hard. As she tries to juggle running the guesthouse with morning sickness, O'Mara's new night receptionist, Freya, proves herself to be indispensable. But nobody's indispensable, are they?
Freya Lynch. Her mam, Emer, is the bad egg in the O'Mara family. But, Aisling's given her a chance, and Freya's determined to prove she's not like her mother, even if it means stepping on her co-worker's toes. So will she prove the apple doesn't fall far from the tree?
As the months' progress, Aisling's long dreamt of pregnancy proves not to be smooth sailing and the seas are about to get rougher because Mammy's announced she's moving in to look after her!

Unputdownable is an understatement!

You can't go wrong Mammy and the girls. They're like family to me except they're a whole lot more fun. When I start a new book I really want to inhale it like it's something yummy but they're not food yet they are some of the most wonderful characters that you'd ever get to know in a book. Even though I want to binge read an O'Mara book at the same time I want to slowly cherish each word because I don't want to run out of books about them. Thank you Michelle Vernal for bringing so much joy to the world.

As usual it was great to catch up with the O’Mara family. It’s like popping in for a coffee with your best friends. I love reading about a second person relating to the Guesthouse, be it guest, employee, friends, or member of the extended family. Sadly, I felt this instalment was lacking it’s usual Joie de Vivre. It was repetitive and long winded in some places. That said I can’t wait to catch up again with this magical family.

A fast read, fun, fabulous book!

The O’Mara family are one of my favorites. You can never tell what shenanigans they’ll be up to. It took me two and a half days to read, only because my normal life got in the way…I guess I have to clean and cook whether I want to or not. Michelle never disappoints, I love her books!

Engrossing read

What can I say? This book is another brilliant fun read in the O'Mara series. Full of laughter, I love how mammy controls most of what goes on in the family in hilarious ways. Anyone who has not tried this series should do so now. Highly recommend. Michelle ..... I can't wait for the next book.

This is one of my favorite series! I love that there is always 2 stories in one, one about the family and one about a guest or employee. That being said, I do think Freya’s story could have been a little more in-depth. This is a very light, easy, funny, short read. Perfect reading for the beach or pool.

Rainbows

Rainbows over O 'Mara's is a wonderful beautiful and very funny book.Michelle Veral should be very very pleased with this book. The guesthouse on the green series should be made into a tv series. I personally would watch it over and over again. So well done Michelle. I can't wait for the next book to come q.xoxox

Love this series!!

I so enjoy this family and feel as if I know them personally. They remind me of the closeness of my own family and all my memories growing up in our big Italian family.
Looking forward to the next book!
