I just finished up what I think is a wonderful beach (or lake or porch or couch!) read....Lagan Love by Peter Murphy. Here is the scoop...
I really got swept up into this story. I do have to mention that it took me a chapter or two to find my "groove"with the author's style. He is very descriptive and this is definitely NOT a bad thing and actually added to the story but it took me a bit to get into it. There is also some profanity in the book. It is not done in a very vulgar way and is appropriate in how you would imagine the characters to speak but it is there. The story line was complex and interesting and a real study in relationships. I really enjoyed the story of Janice, Aidan and Gwen but I found it so interesting how Murphy wove Irish myths in as well. Very well done and it made for great reading. Once I got into the swing of the book I could not put it down! This one gets a thumbs up from me and can be found on Amazon...
