Brian O'Rourke is on a quest for his father-the king of the leprechauns. His father foolishly signed a contract that can only be broken if the king's shillelagh is found before midnight on St. Patrick's Day. Brian has the soft music left by the shillelagh to guide him. Will his Irish charm and leprechaun magic be enough to find it before his people vanish? Maggie Squires no longer believes in magic. After a stroke left her grandfather in a nursing home, responsibilities are heavy on her. When a tall and handsome Irishman comes into the family's diner, she's glad to let him work in exchange for room and board. But there's something different about Brian. He seems to believe in magic. He seems to be able to do magic. Can Maggie accept the truth of what Brian really is? And will she be willing to help him in his search for the shillelagh before it's too late? Brian realizes the answer may be in introducing her to the sweetest magic of all...love.

Luck of the Irish,
By AK "Bro" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Luck of the Irish (Paperback)
Leprechauns are not jolly little bearded men sitting on toadstools; they are very normal seeming people with magic. Unfortunately, their righ, or king, is normal enough to get drunk and make foolish wagers with mortals. As a result, if his son, Brian, fails to find and retrieve the king's shillelagh, the leprechauns will lose their magic and be exiled from Earth. He has only a short time to recover the object, just until St. Patrick's day midnight. Following the song the relic makes, Brian tramps across America until he meets Maggie Donohoe Squires, a young mother trying to hold things together for her grandfather, her daughter, and herself running a diner. She somehow changes the song, so Brian knows that the key to his quest lies with her. Moreover, she truly needs his magic in her life, although his secrets make it hard for Maggie to trust him. Despite the fact that the magic is fading and the quest is of the utmost importance, Brian finds himself getting lost in Maggie's life. To resolve his mission, the leprechaun will have to make choices that hurt the people he has come to love, and the woman who holds his heart.
This is a charming novel that makes you wish it was longer. You can almost hear Celtic music playing in the background as the modern world and the ancient magic blend together. Whether or not you are Irish and whatever time of year it is, take time to enjoy the Luck of the Irish.
