About this listen

Against the backdrop of windswept, coastal Ireland, two people are brought together under unlikely circumstances, one scarred by tragedy, the other by betrayal.

Branna O’Mara never expected to be orphaned at the age of 23. When she lost her father, Major Brian O’Mara, USMC in the Second Battle of Fallujah, she thought she’d taken the worst life had to give. She never imagined she would lose her mother to cancer six years later.

The life of a military child prepared her for the challenges of relocating, but for the first time, she’d be doing it alone. Where do you go when you’re the last man standing? The solution came to her when she received an email with a real estate listing in County Clare, Ireland. Having inherited her parents’ rental properties, she knew the value of a diamond in the rough. A secluded cottage in the land of her ancestors was just the fresh start she needed. What she wasn’t prepared for was another buyer, after the deal had been struck. As she becomes intertwined with the people, the music, and the spirit of the small town, she understands that she’s finally found somewhere to belong. Michael O’Brien and the entire O’Brien clan are a force to be reckoned with, but she will not allow them to take her new home.

Michael O’Brien is a local hero and rescue swimmer for the Irish Coast Guard. He has lived in the small coastal village of Doolin, in County Clare, all of his life. Emerging from the ashes of a failed marriage, and living with his parents, is not where he expected to be at the age of 29. All he really wants is to buy the local Kelly cottage, fix it up, and live in peace. After two years on the market, he never imagined there would be a competing bidder. He certainly didn’t expect some little yank to swoop in to town and try to buy it right out from under him. He finds himself drawn into an unlikely battle with a fiery, young American woman, neither of them willing to bend. But as her secrets unravel and the woman is revealed, will he be able to push her out of the cottage, the town, and out of his life?

Recommended for mature listeners due to some explicit language and adult sexual content.

Sweet Listen

Loved it all as I was much in need of a gentle romantic story - steamy in parts! - and idyllic scene setting of Ireland and large family life.

A must read and hear

The books are great but the Audible brings them to life! I only hope they continue doing the Audibles for all the books.

A little bit went a long way

I must begin by confessing that I don't generally read romance novels. But I needed a break from my usual historical reading.

I enjoyed that the story included a little genealogy, familiar locations in NC, and the warm feelings of being part of a large family with strong parents leading the way. I esp like the easy way it ended leaving the path clear for the next book.

Having been removed from the military lifestyle for many years, I found the cursing to be too much and often unnecessary. But if you are part of that life, it is very much how it is.

The narrator annoyed the way she made the men sound as if they were either crying or having a melt down.

Overall, I think anyone that enjoys romance novels and wants tostay connected with the characters, this author is one to put on the top of your list as I see she writes series.

Engaging story with irritating lead!

This story kept me engaged and loved the family dynamics. Although Branna was often completely irritating in her immature decisions and martyrdom. It’s easy to forget this is focused on young adults.
