I waited all summer for this book and purchased without hesitation on the morning of release, although surprisingly expensive at £9.99. This book, as always is wonderfully written, and descriptive I was transported to ireland It was sympathetic, exciting, romantic and couldn't put it down. However the end left me hugely disappointed and quite taken aback that it was very suddenly the end, I have to go back a re read incase I missed it! Is this possibly book 1 of 2 or 3? I really hope so!
