Search - Irish Rebel (Irish Hearts, Bk 3) (Silhouette Special Edition, No 1328)

I’ve enjoyed her books in the past, and probably will in the future, but this one was truly bad. The characters were so fake. In addition, I’m a horse racing fan. With a little research, she could have done OK with this book.

For one thing, Roberts had the horses for a race being saddled at their barns. Makes you wonder about her research – she never went to a racetrack, apparently, or even looked at a map of one. Every single racetrack in the U.S. has something called a paddock. It’s where the horses are saddle and “riders up� is called.

Then there was the yearling filly, whom they were certain was going to win the Triple Crown in the spring. It’s fun to dream, but it’s impossible to enter a two-year-old in any of the Triple Crown events. They're for three-year-olds. Again, basic research. Sorely lacking.

This is a marvelous follow up to Nora Roberts 2-in-1 book Irish Hearts (which includes Irish Thoroughbred and Irish Rose). This is the story of Dee and Travis Grant's daughter Keeley and the man she loves.

s stars. Nora Roberts always has books you can't hardly lay down, you just have to keep reading.

nice love story about an Irish horse trainer and an American girl

I thought this was a great follow up to Irish Hearts. It was nice to hear about the other members of the family and the fact that her parents are still so much in love.

When I was about 14 I remember reading my first romance novel a Harliquin book but I out grew them quick. I moved on to spooky Stephen King and racier Danille Steel (Hey it was the 70's) This book brought back romance at it's sweetest. It was a very enjoyable sweet read.... Now I'm looking for a Irish hoseman... wonder if my hubby will mind LOL jK jk ... Anyway read the book, its got all the eliments of a good story.
