An excellent follow up to Jewels of the Sun

Advantages: A good read
Disadvantages: Over too quickly!

This was my favourite of the Gallagher series. Brenna, the main female character is a feisty, modern Irishwoman while Shawn is a dreamy poet and musician. Their story is contrasted against the mediavel stories of Carrick and his Lady Gwen. Brenna and S ...
