A truly beautiful book. Harmon has a way with words that just makes them flow and permeate deep into your soul. Her writing sets a tone as soft as the wind, but her characters, bold and vibrant, take you through the spectacularly constructed plot. She effortlessly weaves together history and romance with her themes of belonging, love, and fate. Definitely worth a read!

Moving, thoughtful, heartbreaking, yet heartwarming romance, all centered in early 20th century Ireland. Elements of time travel require a suspension of belief, but it it’s wrapped in Gaelic lore and legend in a palatable way. The story has lots of historical detail - if that is not your jam, I would not recommend. However, you are interested in Irish history and heartwarming romance novels, this is the book for you.
