Breen Kelly hates her job and has massive student loan debt and lately she has noticed a silver-haired man following her. While house sitting for her mother, she finds records of a multimillion dollar inheritance in her name. When she flies to Ireland to claim what is rightfully hers, she enters a magical land of faeries, elves, and mermaids. In this new land, she will embrace powers she never knew she had.
Ho hum. Just another Nora Roberts with the same tired plot with a little "magick" thrown in. Too many wordy descriptions of the countryside. The "ending" was extremely disappointing.
This is one of her best books. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am eager for the next in the series. The scenic descriptions transport you to Ireland and make you feel the land. The characters slowly develop and the contrast between now and the fantasy country make you want to go there to experience the ever changing moods. There are morals in the story that apply to the current times. I enjoyed the slow development of the story line. I didn't want the book to end.
