I loved all three of these books, it's amazing how close you can feel to people that don't even exist. This book has it all, great relationships, great setting, great story, great food, great music..............I really can't say enough positive things about this trilogy. I wanted to go to Ireland, find Gallaghers, sit down, and have Darcy serve me a pint and whatever the lunch special was for the day. When I was done with the last book I wanted more, more, more! I even started drinking Irish tea and made some Irish meals. The Irish trilogy books will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, nothing really bad happens in this story..........it's all good. If you want to read a little more about the Gallaghers go to Nora's webite and check out the short story she wrote on Christmas in Ardomore.
