Doors Before Diamonds

By Laura Carpenter

Fame knocks. Family answers first. Maeve Doran never asked to become a headline. She asked for a kettle that boiled on time, a house full of children, and a life built on choices that actually mattered. When public attention starts circling her family, she makes a decision that feels radical in a world obsessed with access: Private rooms stay private. Pavements stay public. Children come first. Rowan understands storms - the ones in the sky and the ones made by cameras. A search-and-rescue pilot with a code of honour, he knows exactly when to step forward... and when to hold the line. Together, they navigate parenthood, politics, media pressure, and inherited power with one simple rule: no spectacle. no selling. no compromise. From school gates to hospital corridors, council chambers to kitchen tables, Doors Before Diamonds is a cinematic Irish romance about boundaries, bravery, and choosing quiet over crowns. Because real power isn't worn. It's practiced. Every single day.
