Beautiful Sorcha is the courageous young woman who risked all to save her family from a wicked curse and whose love shattered generations of hate and bridged two cultures. It is from her sacrifice that Sorcha's brothers were brought home to their ancestral fortress Sevenwaters, and her life has known much joy. But not all the brothers were able to fully escape the spell that transformed them into swans, and it is left to Sorcha's daughter, Liadan, to help fulfill the destiny of the Sevenwaters clan. Beloved child and dutiful daughter, Liadan embarks on a journey that shows her just how hard-won was the peace that she has known all her life.

Liadan will need all of her courage to help save her family, for there are dark forces and ancient powers conspiring to destroy this family's peace - and their world. And she will need all of her strength to stand up to those she loves best, for in the finding of her own true love, Liadan's course may doom them all...or be their salvation.

Exciting and interesting picture of magical old Ireland. The male voices were n't good, they all sounded rather boring and sensible apart from Bran and his crew.

Great once past all the tedious domestic stuff!

You never know whether a sequel will live up to the first book, but in this case it certainly did. It was so nice to see all of our favourite characters from book 1 all grown up and to meet some new and exciting characters. Looking forward to book 3!

As good as the first book!

Juliete is an amazing author, this book series has me completely hooked. The narrator this time was far easier on the ear and was able to pronounce Irish names properly, the story picked up almost 18 years after the 1st book and it felt as if it flowed seamlessly. A pleasure to listen too. I was completely captivated by Liadan and Brans relationship.

Spellbinding 💫

I love the intertwined stories of each family. The relationships have great depth. I would like some more reference to other Characters feeling but I understand it is the heroes voice we hear. The strength of one so overlooked is timeless..

Fabulous story telling

As usual another great seven water book.if you love Juliet, sadly having American accents reading Irish stories. Surely Juliet should insist on authentic accent.D.Wallace
