Overview
Visiting Ireland for the wedding of her best friend, Kathleen O'Connor spends her spare time researching the life of her ancestor, king's daughter Cahira O'Connor, and finds that their destinies are inextricably linked
Publishers Description
Interweaving two captivating stories of romance and intrigue, humor and faith, The Emerald Isle wraps up the multi-colored threads of Angela Elwell Hunt's The Heirs of Cahira O'Connor series in a page-turning conclusion that will satisfy both spirit and heart.
Resisting her confining, traditional role as a king's daughter, fiery-spirited Cahira O'Connor dreams of practicing her bow, not of capturing a husband. But when Norman invaders challenge the borders of the Kingdom of Connacht, Cahira finds both the one man who could win her heart and an irresistible calling to fight for the land and people she loves.
To Kathleen O'Connor, the story of Cahira's deathbed vow was nothing more than a legend - until her research revealed that it was true. Now, in Ireland for the wedding of her best friend Taylor and his fiancee, Maddie O'Neil, Kathleen struggles to fit in at the O'Neils' farm, Ballyshannon, and focus on her research into the life of her ancestor Cahira. There among Ireland's emerald hills, Kathleen finds far more than she could ever have dreamed - including her own unexpected destiny as an heir of Cahira O'Connor.

 | Great Conclusion to Series! Aug 16, 2007 |
| Hunt nicely wraps up the contemporary story of Kathleen O'Connor who travels to Ireland to research the story of Cahira O'Connor. She blends a great framework for both stories and gives the reader a unique ending to the love story that began her writing and in her own life. | | | | emerald isle Mar 16, 2007 |
| this interweaving two captive stories of romance and intrigue humourand faith. the emerald isle ties up the mutlicolred threads of angela elwell and is serious page turning novel that keeps its readers in supsense, with a concclusion that will satisfy both spirt and heart! | | | | Excellent Ending to a Wonderful Series May 22, 2006 |
The Emerald Isle was a wonderful ending to an excellent series. Cahira O'Connor, the king's daughter, was a remarkable woman who was brave, intelligent and beautiful. She falls in love with her father's enemy's chief knight, named Colton. This is a gripping story, where honor, love, and sacrifice are beautifully portrayed. Cahira's story is set in the 1200's.
The author does an excellent job portraying life in the age of Chivalry. It was somewhat difficult to read, knowing Cahira's ultimate fate from the previous books. However, the author does a beautiful job bringing the story to closure.
Cahira's story is intertwined with Kathleen O'Connor's, a descendent of Cahira. Kathleen travels to Ireland for few months before attending her best friend's wedding. She stays on the bride-to-be's parent's dairy farm and develops a friendship with her brother, Patrick.
The author does a remarkable job describing life and scenes in Ireland, and includes much information on dairy farming. She has done quite a bit of research in each of the books in this series. They are wonderfully written, and I have benefited greatly from her research into the lives and times of each period. I highly recommend each book, all are terrific!
| | |  | Two stories in one book...Past and present Jun 13, 2002 |
| I devoured the first 3 books of this series. They were moving and wonderful. This book is just as good as the other 3. In this book, we find out the story of Cahira O'Connor. A brave young woman who stood up to her father/king and an opposing force for the man that she loved. We also finish the story of Kathleen O'Connor, who has been doing the research on the descendants of Cahira. She is in Ireland for the wedding of her best friend Taylor and his fiancee (whom she introduced) Maddie. This book describes the journey of Kathleen's faith, and how she comes to rely on herself for her own happiness. She realizes her own role in the Cahira tradition is not to chronicle the stories, or to take up arms to fight, but to live. She finds her own way in Ireland, and the ending of the book brings everything full circle and to a satisfying conclusion. | | | | Delightful Read! May 24, 2000 |
| The stories of Cahira and Kathleen are juxtaposed beautifully in this wonderful story of God's grace and sovereignty and people's shortcomings. A lovely story of Ireland, past and present. If you love Ireland, this is for you. | | | Write your own review about The Emerald Isle (Heirs of Cahira O'Connor)
