About the Author As long as she can remember Cork native Delia O'Callaghan wrote in her journal daily, transcribing her thoughts and whatever happened to be going on in her life, and like many people, always had a romantic notion of someday writing a novel. Then in 2008 that day came. While living in Boston, U.S.A. she joined a creative writers workshop at the Boston Centre for Adult Education. Taking on board the experts advice to write about what she knew, Delia started a novel about an Irish girl living and working illegally in Boston. The following year, Delia, took a trip back to Ireland, in a disastrous twist of faith which turned her life upside down she found herself locked up in the San Diego Correctional Facility. Ironically, although Delia's worst nightmare came to fruition, she now had the new material she desperately needed (a story she couldn't make up) and Honeysuckle to Handcuffs was born. In 2012 Delia O'Callaghan was one of the finalists in the inaugural Irish Writers Centre Novel Fair competition. She lives in Cork where she is working on her second novel her working conditions and surroundings are now much improved. Product Description How far will you go for true love? In this humorous memoir, author Delia O’Callaghan wonders if she took it too far. When the Boston-based Irishwoman meets the American, Frank, she can’t believe her luck. He’s everything any girl could wish for: rich, charming, handsome and fun. Whisked up into a world of ritzy restaurants and jet set living, it looks like all of Delia’s dreams are set to come true - that is, until they go to Ireland for her sister’s wedding and she tries to return without a Green Card.At the airport, US customs stamps “Denied Entry” on her passport. She is left stranded in Ireland watching Frank return to the US without her. Determined to get back to the love of her life, Delia devises a hare-brained scheme: if she can’t get into America a legitimate way, then she’ll do what hundreds of thousands of people do each year: she’ll sneak-in through the California-Mexican border. “What’s the worst that could happen... right?” she asks herself, half-heartedly. But the plan goes wrong. So wrong, in fact, that Delia finds herself locked up in the San Diego Correctional Facility with a foul-mouthed, religious, drug-trafficking, yet protective, lesbian cellmate, Teresa. Then, there is Officer Lopez: the six-foot-two prison guard, identifiable as a woman only through her lack of an Adam’s apple. How is Delia going to cope? Will the Irish-American romance continue? Honeysuckle to Handcuffs is the hilarious, fish-out-of-water memoir of an Irish woman’s journey to find a soul-mate. She discovers over the course of nearly a month in jail and a series of disastrous but comical events that there might be more to life than Rolexes, fancy cocktails and fine dining.If you want a humorous memoir and insightful journey on the cost of love, click "Buy Now" and pick up the book you won't want to set down.  

In this delightfully charming and heartfelt debut love story, two lonely and wildly different strangers embark on a short-term friendship over one London summer--only to discover they may be something more by the time the season ends. No one would ever call Ava Monroe a people person, which isn't ideal for a barista in a busy London coffee shop. She's sarcastic, blunt, and cynical, and her relationships are strictly no strings attached. With her best friend Josie soon leaving for a year, Ava knows she'll be all alone unless she shakes up her routine. But she can't risk bringing chance back into her carefully controlled life. Then insufferably cheerful, country-hopping, undeniably gorgeous Finn O'Callaghan rolls into her coffee shop with a horrifying proposal --a strictly friends-only summer fling. Finn needs a local to help him complete his London bucket list, and Ava needs to reassure Josie she won't be on her own. And it's only for a few months. To Ava's surprise, their mismatched friendship of convenience becomes oddly tolerable, and as they work their way through Finn's list and around the sun-drenched city, from rooftops and floating bars to nights at the museum, their adventures--and Finn's company--start to feel . . . nice. Incredibly, terrifyingly, dangerously nice. Still, rules are rules--Ava has good reasons for them--and as the days get shorter, Finn's departure gets closer. Because that's the thing about summer: it always ends. Right?
