Het boek gaat over de Amerikaanse Jude , een overspannen lerares psychologie, die zichzelf probeert te vinden in het Ierse dorp waar haar familie vandaan komt. Ze komt in aanraking met Aidan, de Ierse pub eigenaar. En meer hoef je eigenlijk niet te weten. Oh, behalve dat er een vloek bij betrokken is, een elfenprins en een geest.

Het verhaal heeft me ook dit keer weer gegrepen en ik had weer tranen in mijn ogen staan van ontroering. Ik weet niet wat het is met dit verhaal, misschien de verwijzingen naar sprookjes, de romantiek, de groei van Jude van voorzichtige neuroot tot vrouw die weet wat ze wil en er voor gaat. Het barst van de clichés en ze werken stuk voor stuk op mijn gemoed. Wat mij betreft is dit een top flodder. Op naar boek 2. ( )

Very enjoyable, as expected of Nora Roberts ( )

I don't usually read grocery store novels, much less romance ones, but the subject matter caught my eye. Faeries, Ireland (the Americans view of it at least), realistic relationships, magic... that's the type of stuff I usually read. So I picked up the first one and could hardly put it down. The sex scenes weren't too cheesy and the touches of fantasy really made the book a worthwhile read.
I'd recommend the complete trilogy to people who love fantasy but want something with a more... ahem... adult feel. ( )

Old fashioned, being a decade or so old. But lovely. ( )

Epigraph
Come away! O, human child!
To the woods and waters wild,
With a fairy hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than
you can understand.

--W. B. Yeats
