I am so very grateful that I accidentally stumbled across this author! I have read every book she has available for Kindle. Each one is a treasure on it's own. "The Rosewood Whistle," however, is much different than her other books in that it does not involve the wonder and magic of the fairy kingdom, but instead, the magic and wonder of that four letter word...LOVE. It's a romantic novel, set in modern-day Ireland. What is different about it is that it involves two people who are near age 50, both of whom have lost their spouses to death. I won't give you a story synopsis...you can read that elsewhere. I will say that I truly appreciated the fact that there were no long, played-out sex scenes; simply a great love story with a hitch thrown in excitement.I have visited Ireland twice, but never did make it to Westport. Now I feel as though I have been there. Her descriptions make both the characters and the places they visit come alive. During their trip to Dublin, a city I have seen, I was brought back to the glorious time that I shopped on Grafton Street and walked in St. Stephen's Green.Congratulations to Ms. McDermott for yet another wonderful, exciting read that I found next to impossible to put down once I picked it up! Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent with the world!Encore! Encore!
