Oh my! He is the proverbial bad boy. Makes you want to run your fingers through his hair just to see if you can tame him. Then he has determination to full fill his promise to himself if to no one else.

Benton and Jessamine. As each brother's story is told they get better and better. More time for the couples to know each other. More time for the reader to get a back story on the other characters. A delight to read. Now onto Cole's story.

It was so hard for the guy not to reveal that this fine young man was his son because he was falling in love with his adoptives sister. I liked the way they strung his feelings along., But in th end it a ll worked out for the best. Love conquers all. A very good read.

I so enjoyed reading about the MacKade brothers. The possibility of retained energy from previous lives intrigues me, validates beliefs.

So complex and yet so simple and tragic.  You want to shake them, they are so stubborn in pursuing their fates. Collins weaves a spell that holds me through generations of confusion and outright war.  The Diaspora affected most Scots. The country has been hailed as the "poorest country in Europe" at that time.  They became mercenaries, wandering tinkers and musicians, cabin boys, miners all over the world, because there was no place for them  at home.
  Perhaps this Collins is a Scot himself? A  persistent scribe !

Always great to listen to this talented group of siblings. They have matured and the music still has feeling and technique.

Author Michele Buchanan tells the story of Scota, the legendary princess from the land of Egypt who migrated to Celtic lands in the distant past.
Based on historical legend, the migration stories are well told. The author weaves the quest to find origins of the myths through the search by modern day archeologists to retrace the journey of Scota through Celtic lands. It's a very readable and interesting book with a bit of Irish and Scottish history interspersed throughout the book.

This is a great installment in the BDB collection. I love the brothers and it was nice to get a closer look into their lives. Any fan of the BDB will love this one too.

this is the nitty gritty of a band of brothers who lived fast and hard in a time when blues was the force behind all good rock and roll, they weathered the shit storm of drugs and alcohol that would have torn apart most bands to come out the other side to continue the tradition on,

Allan Pinkerton's book is a historical narrative novel.
It contains many detailed facts about the lives of the
individual Mollie Maguires that were exposed by his undercover
detective James ("Jim") McParlan.
  One central focus of Pinkerton's book is upon McParlan's
infiltration of my great-great grandfather Patrick McKenna's
Summit Hill, Pennsylvania family. McParlan posed as a hobo and called himself the false name of James McKenna. Patrick McKenna was sent
to prison for being an accomplice in the murder of Welsh coal
mine supervisor Morgan Powell. Patrick McKenna's brother-in-law
Thomas P. Fisher (my great-great grandmother Bridget Fisher McKenna's brother) was one of twenty men who were hung for being
Mollie Maguires.
  Since Allan Pinkerton wrote this book very close to the
time (1876) that the Mollie Maguire trials occurred I highly
recommend it as being one of the best original primary sources
that one can read.

This book about Rafe  MacKade by,of course, Nora Roberts is as usual not disappointing.  The three brothers together
truly act like brothers.  I liked the book.
