The Irish Granny made sure the three young brothers knew about 'The Blessing'. Devin, Quintin, and Bryan knew the tale by heart. Each of the Reilly family, for eighty-one generations, will know when The Blessing hits them. It was up to each to decide what to do with it. The decision cannot be changed once made.
This story is of Devin Reilly, the youngest of the three brothers. The two older brothers told Devin to finish college in Dublin and help save Reilly Ship Works with his brain. Instead Dev went in search of gold in California. But while changing ships in Boston he missed his connecting ship when a startled carriage took off. He had to help stop the carriage. Dev recognized The Blessing when he touched Margaret Sylvia Worth Brownley. Boston did not like the Irish and Margaret seemed to be the only one who did not shun Dev the moment he utter a word with his accent.
Margaret was kept busy dealing with her awful father, escaping Mr. Jonathan Adams Lawrence III (that her father was pushing a marriage with), and trying to reach her ill grandmother in Maine despite her parents wishes!
It all blends together to make one of the most romantic stories that I have read in a very long time! A highly recommended romance with a touch of magic!
