Kemberlee Shortland immerses the reader in the Irish culture from the beginning when she introduces Kieran and describes his work at The Little Man pub. She lets us use all our sense throughout the book so that we experience Ireland itself as we are enjoying the journey that Kieran and Eilis are taking towards one another.There are a lot of cat and mouse scenes as Kieran pursues Eilis across Ireland and eventually catches up to her. Eli's is clever in her evasions, but the nearly psychic connection between the two of them unravels her escape plans over and over again.Eilis has an evil boss, Ferguson, who starts out being merely disagreeable and seedy, but he escalates into a monster that no woman anywhere should ever have to encounter, so there is tension in the story anytime he appears.This book is a winner because of the romantic tension between Kieran and Eilis, the tension between Everyone and Ferguson, and the tender love scenes. There are also the hot and steamy love scenes that really make the story move along.Rhythm of My Heart is a real page turner!
