FOR HER WHOLE LIFE, AOIFE MACBETH had to watch the people around her take things for granted that she had never gotten. After losing her mother before she could even remember her, Aoife would always crave a relationship like everyone else seemed to have with their mothers and never be able to find it, even in her own godmother. She watched her peers continue on through medical school when she was forced to drop out when the pressure and the expectations became too much for her. She was forced to return home where her father was waiting for her with open arms, happy to tell her that she shouldn't let life get her down, things hadn't always worked out for him, either, but it had led him to finding the love of his life and having a beautiful daughter.
THE ONE THING AOIFE HAD THAT SHE wouldn't trade for the world was her father and their relationship. They had always been close, ever since Aoife's mother died and it was just the two of them. Patrick Macbeth was always happy to tell his daughter the story of how her parents fell in love and Aoife would treasure this and any story that she was told of her mother. "She was the love of my life," Patrick would say. "I was the luckiest man in the world that she chose me. Never settle for less than the one that stirs your very soul." People would chastise Patrick for giving his daughter what were probably unrealistic expectations of love, but no matter what anyone said, Aoife always had hope and confidence that she would find her soulmate and their love would rival that of her parents'.
