Jewels of the Sun, Tears of the Moon, Heart of the Sea

These three books are the Gallaghers of Ardmore Trilogy by Nora Roberts. This trilogy is a wonderful mix of romance and mystical elements. The books are about three siblings who run an Irish pub in the quaint seaside town of Ardmore. In each of the books, one of the siblings finds love. In doing so, they set free a lovely maiden and a fairy prince from a centuries-old spell.

This trilogy was wonderful escapism fiction. Romance abounds, likable characters, beautiful and romantic scenery, and enjoyable plots. The setting in this small seaside Irish village was so incredibly romantic. My favorite of the series was the first, where the setting is introduced. Roberts does a fantastic job of making the reader feel as if they are there. These are feel good books, that will put a smile on your face.

Roberts is not my favorite author, but each book in this trilogy was a great read. I highly recommend them for the next time you need some escapism romance. They will deliver!

Happy Reading!
