not their best

repetitive dialogue—not enough substance to warrant its length. a shame— i enjoyed the earlier books in the series

Very good

I enjoyed this story and the characters. It did end with a romantic cliffhanger however. Wonder if this is a series.

Slow going

This Is a thin plot, so not much really happens for long stretches at a time, except a lot of tedious and repetitive internal thoughts on Bess part. The history was interesting. Eileen is an unlikable character and useless. I skipped and fast-forwarded quite a bit. Rosalyn is a stellar narrator, but she usually forgot to use the Irish accent. Sometimes it was there; mostly it was not.

Bess the nurse and maid of honor.

An Irish Hostage

Bess the nurse in World War I and the maid of honor who flew into Ireland for her best friend Eileen's wedding. Someone took Michael hostage and before they knew it the wedding was on without the groom. Last minute the groom came stumbling in and said I do. Bess the nurse took over and healed Michael the husband of her best friend.

Evil Grandmother

I didn’t know about an uprising in Ireland just as WW I was ending. This story gets Bess in the middle of things. Most interesting.
