Dark Witch: 1 (Cousins O'Dwyer Trilogy)

Product Information

Iona realizes that here she can make a home for herself and live her life as she wants, even if that means falling head over heels for Boyle.

This is not intended to be a full statement of all your rights under the Distance Selling Regulations. But I do love NR’s PNR trilogies and while I do think this book was one of her weaker starts, her version of weak is still better than many others’ strongest book.However, if I’m comparing this series starter against other witch-y tales by the queen of romance, then I would have to say this one fell slightly short.

With frank language and patient plotting, this gangly teen crush grows into a confident adult love affair.The popular spin off from Dark Witch Story is now available on STEAM Play the 1 player STORY MODE and defeat all the bosses! Just dropped in early evening for a snack as we had eaten for lunch and found ourselves not wanting to leave! The majority of the books reviewed at this site have been provided for free by publishers, authors, or other third parties like NetGalley or Edelweiss. To be honest, I’m not completely sure if I enjoyed this book because it was written by Nora Roberts, or because it was a really good. The first 50 pages *flew,* but once Iona starts working at the stables, the pace skids to a stop to focus on the individual relationships between the three cousins and their lifelong friends.

As the title suggests, there is definitely magick of a supernatural nature (hence the 'k') but the main backbone of the novel is magic of the relationship/love kind be it with romantic or with family.Branna immediately invites Iona to come and live with her and Connor, and to begin training for their fight against Cabhan. I am now starting on the next novel in this particular series and know I shall enjoy it just as much as this one. While she learns to master her craft with the help of her new family and friends, she finds happiness in it as well as in her job and her handsome cowboy boss Boyle. I also adored the Irish setting and I enjoyed the overall premise of the story at large, which kept me engaged and intrigued enough to want more. What I really enjoyed about the book, and why I still gave it four stars on Good Reads, is the relationships between all the characters in general, and the history behind them.

Paranormal romances are generally my least favourite subgenre, but this book had three things I’ve always loved: Nora Roberts, Ireland, and a strong cast.I think if there had been more conflict or tension between Iona and Boyle, it wouldn’t have felt so forced and uncomfortable. From her maternal grandmother, she learned where to find both: a land of lush forests, dazzling lakes, and centuries-old legends. Let me count the ways in just this book/series: there are witches (see also the Three Sisters Island trilogy, and the Key and Circle Trilogies, actually), and Ireland (see also the Born In Trilogy, and Gallaghers of Ardmore Trilogy). Well, when I saw she had a new trilogy coming out about witches I was excited to read her again because her Three Sisters Island (another series she wrote about witches) is one of my favorite series. Fin was the only likeable character, but even at his best he is a shadow of Cian from the Circle Trilogy.
