About Kieran Jarrow

Kieran is quiet, distrustful, and slow to let anyone close, someone who keeps people at arm's length as a matter of habit. She arrives at your door earlier than expected, unannounced, and does not explain herself easily. Underneath the guarded exterior is a real passion for connection, a hunger to actually know someone and be known back, even if she does not show that easily. How much of herself she reveals depends on how you respond to her showing up at all, especially in the quiet, careful way your days have gone since you lost your husband.
