Tears of the Moon

Summary: FUNNY, SEXY, AND TOUCHING
Review: I don't know how she will top this one with Heart of the Sea. Shawn and Brenna make an even better pair then Adian and Jude. You want to laugh and cry with them. Brenna knows what she wants and goes for it even with a few bumps along the way.. You just want to cheer for them. This book was most definetly worth the wait.

Summary: Enchantment, part two
Review: The second part of a three-book story about the Gallagher siblings and their part in breaking a curse that for three hundred years has separated a fairy prince from the ghost of his human love. As in the first novel, Nora Robert's love for Ireland, storytelling, and magic comes through with every page. Not quite as charming as the first installment, perhaps because the characters were both so lacking in self-awareness. That said, spunky Brenna and dreamy Shawn are an engaging couple. The backstory romance, the breaking of the fairy's curse, adds shape and resonance to this celebration of romance and Ireland.

Summary: better than the first
Review: i just finished reading this book this morning and i thought that nora roberts really out did herself. its the basic story of two people, who have been friends since forever that only now realize how they feel about each other is more than just friendship. i thought that the two main characters really compliment each other. One rash to hurry while the other takes their time. I really liked this book alot and i think that most people will too

Summary: Another winner
Review: This is the second book of Nora Roberts' Irish trilogy following the lives and loves of the Gallaghers -- Aiden, Shawn & Darcy -- that has a touch of that Irish magic. Dreamer Shawn has met his match and his fate with Brenna O'Toole. Though one knows this will be a happy ending, we thoroughly enjoy every moment of the journey! I can't wait until book three!

Summary: Good
Review: Overall I felt this book was very good. I enjoyed the first one a little better. The love story was sad, but I believe it was meant to be. I don't mean sad in a bad way, but just two hearts that known each other for such a long time, not realizing that they are meant to be! I can't wait to finish the series to find out about the last Gallanger.

Summary: Tears of the Moon
Review: Once again Nora Roberts has charmed me with her storytelling! The 2nd of a trilogy, "Tears of the Moon" was a wonderful book! I love the way Nora includes some location history. Plus, Shawn and Brenna are brought to life and I felt as if they were real. I read very few romances that make me laugh at loud, and that is the beauty of this book(and the 1st of this trilogy)! There is only one other romance author that does that to me, and that is Jayne Ann Krantz. Brenna and Shawn find each other, but not w/o the help of Lady Gwen and Prince Carrick and the rest of Ardmore. If you have not read Nora Roberts before then you are truly missing out! I finished the book within a day, and am anxiously awaiting the 3rd in the trilogy. It probably helped that after I read the 1st, Jewels of the Sun, my husband and I went to Ireland and stopped in Ardmore for a night so I could indulge myself and see the pub, the round tower, and St Declan's well. Nora was right when she said that there is "magic and music in the air".

Summary: enjoyable read
Review: I really enjoyed this book. My favorite Nora Roberts' books are the ones that are part of a series, and this one certainly did not fail to please. I enjoyed the Gallaghers in the first book of this series, and I liked Shawn even more than Aidan. I also loved Brenna. All in all, it was an enjoyable book that shed more light on the relationships in this family. I look forward to the final book in the series.

Summary: Normal people
Review: The character development is quite good in this book. I'm especially enjoying a more sensitive male lead who doesn't have tons of money. It's refreshing that this book is about normal, every day people. I also like a girl who's handy around the house. I'm very interested to see how Darcy will be handled though...she seems very selfish and vain. Not sure she's good heroine material.....

Summary: Nora Robert's Continues to Shine

Summary: Most excellent!
Review: I finished reading Tears of the Moon and my final reaction was to pause...sigh...and smile for a bit. This was a very satisfying read. I love how Ms. Roberts drew us into the uniqueness of each of the personalities of her primary characters in this book. Shawn is irresistible and Brenna simply delightful. I have yet to ready anything by Nora Roberts I didn't like. I expect that will continue to be the case. Can't wait for the 3rd book in this trilogy to come out.
