Publisher's summary

Shannon Bodine is a talented graphic artist whose life revolves around her job at a prestigious New York advertising agency. Her world is turned upside down when she learns the identity of her real father: Thomas Concannon.

Respecting her late mother's wish, Shannon travels, however reluctantly, to County Clare. There, her loneliness and shame melt away in the embrace of the family she never knew existed. And amid the lush Irish landscape, steeped in mysticism and legend, she discovers the possibility of a love that is meant to be.

Recommended

The good story, tho, my least favorite of the three. Shannon kept saying she was a strong decisive woman. I found her to be wishy washy and stubborn about it. I can understand some of it but not to that extent. I felt bad for Murphy.

The tie in with the past was weak didn't really jive as it should have.

The narration was excellent.

Tension and suspense

As with all the Born In series the inner and external conflicts of the characters creates a page turner. However, in Born in Shame we add a supernatural component. The story of a past love affair being lived out again in our characters is beautifully tied up in the end with both the two main characters and their parents. It gets a little confusing with the dual love stories but the ending wraps up perfectly.

Sweeny sounds hott!

I loved this series. First, the performance was so great. All characters had a distinct tone and personality. Fiacre’s voice created the story perfectly! Rogan and Maggie had a wonderful lovely story. Is it possible to crush on a fictional character? Ha!

Fantastic Book with Excellent Narration

I loved the trilogy. The narration was excellent. The Irish brogue added to the allure of the book. Excellent listen.

i loved this whole series.

i loved this whole series, but this was probably my least favorite book. i feel like there could have been more explanation/exploration of the "dream sequence" but overall, very entertaining.
