Irish Hearts, Books 1-3: Irish Thoroughbred, Irish Rose, Irish Rebel
Explore the wonders of Ireland with Nora Roberts's Irish Hearts trilogy in this incredible new ebook bundle.
Irish Thoroughbred
With nothing left for Adelia Cunnane in Ireland, she joins her uncle Paddy in America and discovers that even those from the humblest background can pursue what they want in America—and, perhaps, even find themselves one day attending the Kentucky Derby. But some divides may be too wide to cross, and Adelia fears that demanding more could cost her all that she’s already gained.
Irish Rose
Burke Logan came to Ireland looking for thoroughbreds for his Maryland horse farm—but never expected Erin McKinnon to catch his eye. When he offers her a job, Erin jumps at the chance to leave her small-town life in Skibbereen behind for everything America has to offer. Once stateside, their initial attraction grows stronger, but Burke is keeping Erin at arm’s length—to protect her from a secret in his past that could destroy their love.
Irish Rebel
The Royal Meadows thoroughbred farm in Maryland has been in Keeley Grant’s family for generations. But Brian Donnelly, the new horse trainer fresh from Ireland, thinks Keeley is nothing more than a pampered princess--until he witnesses firsthand her wild heart that resembles his own rebellious nature and brings them together in unexpected passion.

Finalmente le doy 3⭐.
La 1° historia para mí tiene 2⭐, porque a los personajes no había por donde pillarlos y por el comportamiento que para nada tenía que ver con este siglo.
La 2° podría darle 2'5⭐, porque para que todo evoluciona un poco mejor, los personajes no son tan odiosos y aunque hay algunas actitudes reguleras no te chirrian tanto.
Y la 3° sin duda ha sido la mejor y por ella se lleva 3⭐. Es verdad que aquí ha pasado un tiempo y la evolución es clara. Me han gustado los personajes, y sin duda ha ganado en trama.

I loved Irish Thoroughbred but it was extremely short. Adelia was a great character. I liked that she was very competent before the romance took over. I also liked the predicament, if you will, although I did sort of doubt that Travis could be so blind. I would have like to see Del be even more of a factor in the business than she was. 4,5*
I did not like the characters in Irish Rose. Burke was a rascal and I never really bought into the concept he could commit. Erin was a contradictory character - she was competent one minute and totally and completely doubted herself the next. Both these characters had deep issues. Also, it was almost like two stories that weren't blended very well with only the romance for most of it, but then Erin's peril squeezed in at the end. 1.5*
I liked Irish Rebel, but with mixed feelings. Again I really didn't buy that Brian could ever commit, but he wasn't as bad as Burke. Brian really was a snob. I really like Keeley who was also very competent. She was too good for Brian, but not in the class sense which occupied so much of the story. I liked how she toyed with Brian. 3*

Loved all the info about horses
Really enjoyed the trilogy. I would have given it a 5 if there had not been such manhandling of women by the men in their lives. I know that the author was dealing with Irish tempers but the men were too forceful for my taste. I think my favorite of the stories was Irish Rebel.

I give this trilogy a 4 out of 5 stars.
Why? Because the books and the endings themselves feel rushed especially for nora Robert's stories. That being said the plots are good, the characters great and the immersive experience into the world of professional horse racing and breeding thrilling. But they just feel so rushed as if she was just ready to be done with them already.

Horses and Love
Three stories of loving couples who had Irish pride and stubbornness. Brian and Keeley, Adelia and Travis and Erin and Logan were trainers of horses who learned to love each other.

Trys istorijos, kurios turi savo labai nuoširdžią romantiškąją pusę, skirtingus poreikius ir vertybes santykiuose. Labai patiko, kad pirmoji dalis taip ir neužsibaigė nežinomybe, o ji tęsėsi ir kitose dvejose. Gana lengvai skaitėsi pati knyga.

Short stories, sweet romances, and racehorses. Good enough combination for me 🙂

Oh my, we she did it again. I never wanted this story line to end. I loved all three books in this series. I’m looking forward to reading more of her books.

Si exceptuamos Fuego irlandés que es la novela que más me ha gustado y que comenté en su edición individual, Corazones irlandeses no me ha gustado tanto como esperaba.
Sí que me ha gustado la ambientación, las carreras, las cuadras, todo lo relacionado con los caballos y cómo describe la tensión y la preparación para las carreras, pero voy por orden.
Rosa irlandesa. Esta novela me podría haber gustado muchísimo más si no hubiera pintado a la protagonista tan inocente que en algunos momentos parecía tonta. Vale que no tuviera experiencia, pero a veces se pasaba, que no se hubiera enamorado antes lo puedo entender, pero al tener hermanos mayores había momentos de su comportamiento que no me encajaban bien. Eso sí, la situación que rodea a Burke, y a su caballo, con todo lo que conlleva, me ha atrapado desde el principio. Él sí que me ha gustado, es un personaje bien construido y que cree no tener nada que perder. Me ha gustado también cómo interactuaba con los Grant. No está mal esta novela pero no hay que esperar demasiado.
Rebelde irlandés. Aquí nos encontramos la historia de Keely, la hija de Dee y Travis, y Brian Donnelly, el nuevo entrenador de caballos. Esta historia, a pesar de que la trama es más flojita, podía haber estado bien. Lo que más me ha chocado es ese cambio en la actitud de Keely tan rápido y radical, no me lo he terminado de creer. Es una historia que se lee rápido y que te hace pasar un rato agradable
Suficiente si se busca una novela sin grandes complicaciones.

Irish Hearts was a great trilogy!
Irish Hearts, books 1 - 3 of the Irish Rose series, by Nora Roberts @norarobertsauthor. This is a reread of this series. I have the orignal paperbacks but bought it on Kindle when it was released as the trilogy.
Irish Thoroughbred - I always forget how much I enjoyed Nora’s first published book! It is a single POV (Adelia). I love Adelia & Travis. Remember it was published in 1981!
Irish Rose - I loved Erin & Burke! Erin, & Burke definitely had communication issues. 99% of which was Burke’s fault. What else is new? 😂 This book had a bit of a multi-POV which I prefer. This was published in 1988.
Irish Rebel - Keeley is Adelia & Travis’s oldest daughter. Brian has accepted a job from Travis & Adelia as their new horse trainer. Keeley has opened a riding school. They have fireworks between them & miscommunication, of course. They fall in lust & then love. 🥰 This was published in 2000.

I have been a fan of Nora Roberts ever since the mid-1980's
At this time I don't know how many Nora Roberts books that I have. But it must be close to 100 books in my little library. My daughter and son-in-law got me a Amazon Kindle Tablet for my 76 birthday that know I won't have to have more book cases built to hold my books but that I can keep them in a library on my Amazon Kindle.

Wunderbarer dreiteiler mit drei Liebesgeschichten. Einfach nur schön zu lesen und mit zu erleben. Nora Roberts schafft es wie immer einen an das Buch zu fesseln. Eine einfache Liebesgeschichte zur Entspannung.
