Ron O'Connell is a 32 year old single mother who hasn't had it easy in life. She relocates from Dublin to Leitrim to escape potential gangland influences over her only child Brendan.

Good fortune finally favours her in terms of an amazing inheritance. Now she can afford to send Brendan on his travels around the world, and he can live with gusto.

Ron will never have her life measured out in teaspoons. Her relationship with her son is paramount. The universe has a way of throwing her curved balls, but she is ever resilient.
