Review
After losing her job and coming into an inheritance, Calla leaves Canada to make a new life for herself in Ireland. There she meets Colm. Their attraction is instant, but time and circumstances wedge between them.
Ms. Park did a great job. Her writing is tight, and I love the way several of the characters speak with an Irish brogue. I can easily hear it in my mind. The story focuses on two couples whose lives are intertwined through magic, family, and friendship.
In my opinion, this book is more fantasy than paranormal, but at its core, the romance reigns supreme. It’s slow burn, yet the passion is fiery when it finally heats up.
Be warned, there’s a big cliffhanger. I wish I had known that before I started reading, so I was a little annoyed there was no happy ending for the main characters. However, the next book will be out soon. I’m eager to know how things will work out.
For lovers of fantasy romance, this is the book to read.
