Rating: Summary: This would be a great book if the stories weren't reprints Review: I liked all of the stories in the original "Once upon..." series but if you have already read that series than you aren't getting anything new in this book.
Rating: Summary: Nora Roberts RULES! Review: I loved the three novels in this book - Romance and the Supernatural swirled together in three Magickal tales. Nora Roberts has the ability to write characters that are REAL - you love (or hate) them and grieve and celebrate with them as though they were life-long friends. Aren't we lucky that such a wonderful writer is also so prolific! Whether she writes as Nora Roberts or J.D. Robb - her books are the ones I buy as soon as I see them and if I lend them I make sure I get them back!

Rating: Summary: Absolutely enchanting Review: I read all three of these stories and enjoyed all of them. They were true Nora Roberts- romance, magic, a hint of mystery or some wierd problem. These are not formula romances by a long shot. Truly fun to read. In the first story, Calin travels to Ireland with no real reason as to why. When he sees Brynna, he realizes why he came. As they learn to work together and as they fall in love they face many problems that most couple don't face. The second story, which was my favorite of the three, Conal is a loner and likes it that way until Allena gets lost and shows up at his home. An enjoyable story with magic and love and more. The third story was my least favorite of the three, but any Nora Roberts book at it's worst is better than many romance books at their best. Kayleen must learn to love a man who can only have her 'in dreams' and how to conquer this unusual problem. Enjoy.
Rating: Summary: Very disappointing Review: I was so disappointed with these short stories that I was sad for days after reading this book. I had read and loved 'Dance Upon the Air' and 'Heaven and Earth' and couldn't wait to read more, but these stories were badly conceived, predictable and even objectionable. I had passed the other books to my friends and family and had promised them more after 'A Little Magic' arrived from Amazon, but I am not even going to loan it out, I'm saving them the bother.

Rating: Summary: Ireland and it's magic Review: Ireland has always been a land of magic and romance and no one combines these elements better than Nora Roberts. True, these three stories are a bit on the short side, but are great for an evening read or commuting home on public transportation. Who can resist dashing heroes, magickal incantations and true love conquering all?
Rating: Summary: A lovely flight of fancy that invokes Ireland Review: It was St. Patrick's Day, so I felt like reading something Irish. These three stories transported me to the Emerald Isle with their romance, Irish lore and magic. I read straight through from one story to the next. I'll definitely look for more Nora Roberts to read and not wait for next March.

Rating: Summary: A little disappointed... Review: none of the characters in the short stories really stands out. Although each stories has a magicial theme, fulfilling a curse, etc, there is no real magic between the characters.
