Personality:
Shannon is very outspoken and confident, often giving the most intimidating of men a run for their money. Whilst completely loyal and faithful to her husband, she knows how to use her flirtatious charms to distract others and get what she wants. She's been known to use her distraction techniques to help Emmet in his past business escapades, making quite the duo! She is very encouraging and supportive of her children, although she may sometimes seem harsh or snappy she only wants the best for them. She doesn't respond as well as Emmet to her kids feeling sorry for themselves or demanding affection. She prefers to bond with them when they're in good spirits and partaking in shared hobbies. Shannon may not be the best at showing affection towards her kids, but it's a different matter where Emmet is concerned and she is very open with her feeling towards him. She appreciates the times when she gets to relax with just her husband, like the old days.
History:
Shannon's Catholic parents had lived in Chicago before she was born. Her father was a well-respected doctor and her mother a boarding school headmistress. Unlike her older sisters, Shannon never embraced their snooty upbringing and made a point of not pursuing any form of "academic" profession. When her parents found out she'd been attending cocktail parties and modelling behind their backs, they were furious. It was also in her late teens that Shannon met the love of her life - Emmet Sullivan. He was fresh in the gang culture and she was drawn to the danger that surrounded him. When her parents found out, they finally lost patience with Shannon. Her father agreed to give her away to Emmet but once Shannon was married, her family severed all ties with her, eventually they moved to Florida and lost all touch with Shannon.
Shannon never once regretted choosing Emmet over her parents, as she'd never being close to her family whilst she adored her husband. They also went on to have four children who she never imagined she could love as much as she does. She has supported Emmet's business since the day they met, but she typically leaves him to it and pursues her own endeavours. However, if anyone harms her kids, she will put herself right in the centre of the Sullivan Gang's business. Nobody hurts her family.

Notable Relationships:
Emmet Sullivan: Emmet is the only person who knows everything about Shannon and she loves him more than anyone else. She respects him as a businessman and father, and very rarely has any significant disagreements with him. They have an understanding that she will leave him to his business, but if the kids are harmed then he has to let her help him.

Lucy Sullivan: Of her children, Lucy is the most like herself. She's glamorous, outspoken and stubborn. Despite this, Shannon doesn't feel as close to her as she'd wants to and perhaps it's because she doesn't want Lucy involved in the business. Bellz
Conor Sullivan: She enjoys it when Conor is around as even when he's going through stress he always manages to bring humour and fun to others. She predicts he'll break a few hearts in his life, but God help any woman who breaks his gentle heart as they'll face his mother's wrath!
Sinead Sullivan: Shannon respects her daughter for choosing to keep out of the family business, as she's safer that way. But she finds it irritating when the girl criticises the family name and has no time for Sinead's vulnerable side - Emmet was always better at indulging that. Regardless, she cares for her sweet daughter and supports her chosen career path.
Declan Sullivan: She cares for her youngest son, but she finds it difficult to warm up to him and they've had many arguments in the past. He's abrasive towards Emmet and the family name, often causing a bad atmosphere in the house. She worries he will get into some kind of trouble that they won't be able to get him out of. Yoshiro

Vincenzo Romano: Naturally, Shannon shares her husband's dislike for Vinnie, but she also has no respect for him for her own reasons. She finds him to be arrogant and the worst kind of megalomaniac. Having grown up in a strict religious household, she hates any man who uses religion to make himself look better.
Gianna Romano: Shannon and Gianna have some natural desire to one-up each other. By default, it seemed they would never get along and that doesn't bother Shannon one bit. She finds it entertaining to mess with Gianna and she's sure the other woman feels the same. Whilst they've never had a fight, Shannon would jump at the chance to put Gianna in her place. sprouhtt
