From #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts comes a trilogy about the land we’re drawn to, the family we learn to cherish, and the people we long to love…

Book One of The Cousins O’Dwyer Trilogy
Dark Witch

With indifferent parents, Iona Sheehan grew up craving devotion and acceptance. From her maternal grandmother, she learned where to find both: a land of lush forests, dazzling lakes, and centuries-old legends.

Ireland. County Mayo, to be exact. Where her ancestors’ blood and magic have flowed through generations—and where her destiny awaits.

Iona arrives in Ireland with nothing but her Nan’s directions, an unfailingly optimistic attitude, and an innate talent with horses. Not far from the luxurious castle where she is spending a week, she finds her cousins, Branna and Connor O’Dwyer. And since family is family, they invite her into their home and their lives. When Iona lands a job at the local stables, she meets the owner, Boyle McGrath. Cowboy, pirate, wild tribal horsemen, he’s three of her biggest fantasy weaknesses all in one big, bold package.

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. But nothing is as it seems. An ancient evil has wound its way around Iona’s family tree and must be defeated. Family and friends will fight with each other and for each other to keep the promise of hope—and love—alive…

The plot was also lackluster and predictable, leaving me bored and uninterested. Overall, I felt like the story lacked depth and failed to engage me as a reader. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a captivating paranormal romance.
2. Mark - ★☆☆☆☆
I usually enjoy Nora Roberts' books, but the Dark Witch trilogy was a huge letdown. The writing felt repetitive and formulaic, and the characters lacked any real development. The romance between the main characters felt rushed and forced, making it hard for me to invest in their relationship. Additionally, the supernatural elements of the story were not well integrated, and I found myself not caring about the outcome. Overall, I was bored and unimpressed with this trilogy.
3. Rebecca - ★★☆☆☆
I couldn't get into the Dark Witch trilogy by Nora Roberts. The pacing felt off, with long stretches of nothing happening, followed by rushed and convenient resolutions. The world-building was also weak, and I never felt fully immersed in the story. Additionally, I found the dialogue to be awkward and unrealistic, making it hard for me to connect with the characters. While I appreciate Roberts' writing style in her other books, this trilogy fell flat for me.
