You may notice that in the Clover Cove series, the Cliffs near the harbour play a big part in the dramatic events of the books. Why? Because when the wind is whipping in off the sea, there’s nowhere more romantic. I have to say it’s also because of one particular set of cliffs: the Cliffs of Moher. I visited there quite young and I think the epic drama of the place had a big effect on me. That magic has only increased each time I’m drawn back. So why is Moher so romantic? Well, obviously because those sheer plunging cliffs are so epic, the focal point where the sea meets the sky and where the wind whips in off the Atlantic. But I think it’s also because the temptation is to inch up to the edge, clinging to your loved one (or even a prospective loved one) for safety and peek over, gasping and laughing. It’s like a fairground rollercoaster, but a lot bigger – and lot more pretty!
