Second book in the series. Nice romance. I loved it.
Claire has returned to Galway, the city where she studied, to work at the university. One night she stumbles upon a man in a pub. He’s very attractive. She doesn’t expect to see him again, but she meets him on the first day of work. He is David, one of the professors of the university.
A year after losing Declan, his brother, David is having nightmares, and the relationship with his girlfriend is suffering, he doesn’t feel comfortable with her. And, after bumping into Claire, he keeps thinking about her. He wants to be friends with her.
I loved Claire. Shy, insecure, she has suffered a lot, she hides, but she wants to live again. David makes her trust men again. He makes her smile, she trusts him.
David has also suffered. He had to be strong after losing Declan, for his family. He couldn’t cry, and he regrets it. Declan was his best friend and David misses him terribly. He doesn’t feel comfortable with his girlfriend, he doesn’t trust her. He can’t talk to her about his dreams, he doesn’t think she will understand. But he knows that Claire would. He wants to know her. He wants that she sees him for who he is. She wants the same, that he truly sees her.
I loved them together. They are a sweet and lovely couple.
I loved seeing Colin and Kathy. And to know more about Maggie.
I loved Ciara. And her crush on Declan.
I loved the wedding.
I cried a lot. I recommend it.
I received an ARC from the author, and this is my honest review.
The second book in the Irish Hearts series a well-written story that I enjoyed reading. Two people David and Claire with things in their pasts that if they are to move forward they have to let go of. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

They go out for lunch and they keep dancing around their feelings and finally David works up the nerve to try and break up with Michelle and she turns it around on him saying he is cheating on her and then he tells her about his nightmares and she tells him it’s been two years get over your brother’s death and he’s crazy for believing in Angel’s and so they breakup and he gets drunk. David and Claire see each other after his drunk escaped and they talk about his brother and she tells him about her sister that died at age eight. Awesome story and I loved it I read it one day.

Finding Our Hearts #2 – This book starts two years after Declan’s passing with the emphasis on David’s story with the family playing large roles. While well written and well thought out, I didn’t get wrapped up in this story as I did with Healing, until the last half. Oh, the first half was good but for me the story took off midway through. At this point, the story takes several twists and the pace is rapid and filled with suspense.
We have all the lovable characters from Healing and the new characters are likable, although there are some unlovable ones, too. Ciara the bestie of Claire, David’s love interest, is a hoot. But Claire is a complex person. There are insecurities, fears, avoidance, heartaches to name some of the storylines/themes. Heartwarming and filled with love; an excellent pairing with Healing, which should be read first, but it’s not necessary. Really though, read them both. I contacted the author to review her books. 5*
Healing Our Hearts #1 – This is my first read by this author and I thoroughly enjoyed it. A delightful, heartbreaking, heartwarming story of healing. The heart wrenching sadness that the two main characters faced and their recovery, along with the discovery of love for each other made it difficult to put the book down.
This tearjerker is well written and the storylines and journeys mesmerizing. Ms. Roberts does a wonderful job with her writing style, vivid descriptions and fascinating characters. While sad, there is plenty of joy and blessings making this a well balance feel good story. I contacted the author to review her books and received this through Booksprout. 5*
