I thouroughly enjoyed this book! It sparks your imagination and makes you want to visit Ireland! This is the second trilogy I have read by Roberts and I enjoy how each book focuses on a seperate main character. And she builds up the characters so well that you feel like you know them and really care what happens to them.

Jude Murray is not happy with her life. So she leaves Chicago and moves to Ireland for a fresh start, intending to study Irish folklore. Soon she meets the Gallaghers and is quite taken with Aidan Gallagher, pub owner and storyteller.
I was really bored with the first 100 pages. This did not seem like a Nora Roberts book. The writing was too lyrical. Finally the story picked up and the characters became more interesting. I was satisfied with the ending of this book and am looking forward to the next book in the series. My rating: 3.5 Stars.

This is the first book in the Gallaghers of Ardmore trilogy. Roberts weaves Irish folklore into her stories in sucha a way that makes you almost believe it. Aidan and Jude Frances find their place in the 100-year-old spell that has been cast on a faerie prince and his true love.
A great summer read!

Diane B. (This was a little slow reading at the beginning, but it picks up and is an interesting story. I am now looking forward to reading the remaining 2 books of the trilogy.
I have always loved Nora Roberts book and this one was no different. I loved that it had a little magic on top of the romance.
Kim H. (This is a great Nora Roberts trilogy, she seemlessly melds reality, fantasy and magic. Every modern girls dream, to find "themself" and find it in a beautiful Irish seaside cottage with a handsome man while the air is filled with magic. This story draws you in and fills the most cynical heart with magic and hope. .
The Irish Trilogy was very good. This is book one.
First of the series and a good read, interesting stuff in the whole series!
