Family Iona Sheehan visita por primera vez Irlanda, tierra de sus antepasados. En Estados Unidos ha dejado a unos padres distantes e indiferentes, sus amigos, su trabajo y el sueño de convertirse en jockey para dar salida profesional a su pasión por los caballos. Pero sobre todo ha dejado a su abuela, la persona que le ha contado tantas historias sobre sus antepasados, una saga de hechiceras que se remonta al siglo XIII, en los años en que vivió la Bruja Oscura. Iona llega al condado de Mayo acompañada de ilusión, optimismo y el amuleto que le había regalado su abuela al despedirse: un caballo de cobre. Allí se instala en un fascinante castillo, se reencuentra con sus primos lejanos, Branna y Connor O'Dwyer, y empieza a trabajar para Boyle McGrath, el atractivo propietario de los establos, quien le cuenta una antigua leyenda según la cual la hija menor de la Bruja Oscura hablaba con los caballos y aprendió a montar antes que a andar... Classic Nora Roberts romance! She does such a wonderful job of writing characters I wish I knew IRL. This is the first book in a trilogy - generally she offers up one couple per book, and true to form we're introduced to 3 not-yet-couples who would be perfect for each other. There's a whole witch theme, and it's well done, but as always it feels like a pretext to write a romance. I received a free copy of this book from Piatkus in exchange for an honest review, thank you! I also want to thank Piatkus for inviting me to participate in the "The Dark Witch blog tour"! There lived a witch called The Dark Witch many centuries ago who gave her life in a bid to stop an evil witch called Cabhan. But she gave her powers to her three children before she died. Now in the present time, Iona Sheehan, Connor and Branna O'Dwyer, descendants of the Dark Witch must try to stop the evil Cabhan for good. I’m not totally against romance. I just am a bit picky and I have a need for believable love stories. This book lacked that. Heck, it lacked a great deal, like a good story. I mean I can take it that a book has some flaws, but this book is a flaw. It’s my second Nora Roberts book I read (Yes I have only managed to read one before and that was years ago) and Dark Witch really don’t make me eager to read another one for a long time. I mean this is the first book in a trilogy about three men and three women. All the stuff about witches and magic is just filler for Nora Roberts to match up her characters with each other. First out is Iona and Boyle McGrath the owner of the local stable where she gets a job. Soon they are more than employer and employee (insert roll eye smiley) and also soon they have a BIG misunderstanding because of something he says. Will they ever make up? This review is really bringing out my sarcastic side. But I was so sick and tired of this book when I read it then my first review got lost when I was about to save it in Microsoft office Word. The only plus side is that I think this review is actually better than the first one I wrote… Will I read the next book in the series? No. Will I ever read a Nora Roberts book again? Perhaps, but then it will be one that has got great reviews. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
