Christmas on Inishmore
Emma never thought she’d flee from her success – especially not to Ireland.
As a tech founder, Emma Kells is used to being the only woman at the table. Her app brought her success, fame, and riches, but it also stole her social life. The success was unexpected, but so was a tech thief, claiming her invention actually belonged to him.
When Emma tries to defend her work, things take a turn for the worse when she makes a mess in the media and jeopardizes her future dreams. Her team suggests that lying low is the answer and what better place to do that than in Galway, Ireland? Only, Emma’s trip doesn’t exactly go as planned.
Instead she becomes stranded on the tiny island of Inishmore where the handsome pub owner offers her a bed. He reminds Emma of the comfort, laughter, and relaxation she has been putting aside for years, and now she’s wondering if her success was worth it.
When the real world comes calling, Emma has a choice to make. Will she return to her workaholic ways, or will she take a chance on an Irishman and love?
Dive into this forced proximity romantic comedy and fall in love with its witty Irish hero today. Featuring a cozy cottage (with only one bed, naturally!), a lovable dog, and a Christmas you won’t soon forget.

Some days, Emma wondered if working in the cutting edge field of social media app development was really making the world a better place. Scratch that, she knew it was actually a dumpster fire of addiction and FOMO, but the paychecks and the prestige of being a founder? Well, those were some pretty great perks of the job.
Still, at a moment like this, as she clapped for the non-profit founder exiting the stage, the same stage she was about to go out on, it was hard not to take a second look at the career she had chosen for herself. She surreptitiously checked the program in her hand to make sure she had his name right. Tom Conley…he’d invented some sort of water filtration system that was revolutionizing development work all over the globe. Good for him. Her social media app SLICE was revolutionizing things too, even if it was just how much time people spent on their phones every day.
“Tom,” she said, holding out her hand to shake his. “That was really inspiring. I’m Emma Kells, founder of SLICE. It’s nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you too, Emma,” he responded. “Though of course I knew who you were already. SLICE is a huge deal. Congrats on all your success.”
Emma smiled. “Thank you. And thanks for warming up the stage for me, though it’s going to be tough to follow you out there.”
Tom dismissed the compliment. “I’m looking forward to learning from you. Break a leg.”
Emma turned back to the stage to hear the end of the emcee’s introduction. “Please join me in welcoming Emma Kells to the stage. Emma is the founder of SLICE, a social media app that has transformed the way we connect with each other all over the globe by capturing the power of live, real-time video. But I don’t have to tell you that—I’m sure half of you are SLICEing this right now! Emma is frequently the youngest founder in the room, as well as the rare female founder in an industry that is largely male-dominated. We’re honored to welcome her to the Southwestern Innovation Conference today as our keynote speaker. Put your hands together for Emma Kells!”
