On the blood and death of the battlefield she comes to him like an angel of mercy. Lying half dead among the bodies of his family and kinsmen, the hero at first believes her to be a spirit come to welcome him into the afterlife. He fought bravely for Ireland against the English invaders but while he is willing to surrender his life for his country, he still grieves the lives of those who followed him. He wishes them well and hopes their place in heaven is lovely. He is awaiting to join them.... But he does not die. Instead, he wakes in the bed of his angel, alive but badly injured.
The heroine is one of the fae, a half breed but her powers are true and her heart is selfless. She begs her mother the queen for the hero's life as she's watched over him for so long and the idea of such a noble spirt leaving this world is hard to bare. Even though it is against the rules for Fae to interfere, the heroine's wish is granted and the hero will live to fight another day.
Lost in the tiny world of just him and her, they fall in love as she tends to his wounds and he tends to her heart. But the heroine knows that if she does as he bids and comes with him to his keep, he and his family will be in danger. Her father, a traitor to Ireland, is after her and she must not let him catch her. So, to spare the hero, she takes away his memories of her and leaves in the dark of the night.
The hero, confused and unsure how he came to be in the house, leaves and returns home to a warm welcome. But while he is surrounded once more by family, he is haunted by visions and thoughts of a woman he knows he should have never forgotten. One night, he hears her pleas and rushes to her aid. He finds her badly beaten, raped and horribly alone. He takes her back to his home and tends to her as he knows she once tended to him.
This sweet, beautiful and all too kind woman is his world. Even without his memories, the love he feels it true. It doesn't matter that she is English, that she is Fae- she is his and his alone. If his clan should make him chose- his title or the heroine, he knows what his choice will be. But the hero is the subject of a power struggle and the games of the Fae and soon he has a different choice to make. He must decide, will he dedicate his life to Ireland or will he devote himself to his wife and unborn child.
This was a very sweet book. It had a whole bunch of very mushy lovey dovey scenes and I have to say, I quite enjoyed to passionate but tender love between the two characters. They had a larger than life dedication to each other and their love, it felt like it did truly transcend time. The setting was also very rich with historical aspects and though the hero may not have a been a real-life figure, he was a magnificent character and a man greatly admired. He possessed a easy selflessness that inspired people to follow him and his passion and fearlessness made him into a born leader. But he realizes by the end of the book that his dedication to Ireland, while admirable, did not leave him with a fulfilled life. To have true happiness he needed the heroine. She was a quiet and sweet girl. She matched the hero's kindness and possessed her own fierce protectiveness when it came to her husband and her unborn child. Together they were too cute for words and I really enjoyed reading their story as it unfolded. I believe the Irish do not get nearly enough attention. Certainly not in comparison to the Scottish. But they have a rich and exciting history themselves, abundant with magic and Fairy’s and sexy Irish Chieftains. Plus, I could hear that accent in my head when the characters spoke and it kept a smile on my face the entire time.

As Im not a big parnormal romance reader, I do not mind too much,stories that have things like second sight or the sidhe'. As long as it doesnt distract from the main purpose of the story and doesnt bore me (some have) I will read the book.
This one didnt bore me. As a matter of fact it kept me entertained and i finished it in one day!
