The story combines romance, culture, and history. The beautiful scenery appears to be ideal for finding romance. While the small, knitted neighborhood lends character to the setting.

The setting is a small town where everyone meddles in everyone else’s business. This elicits tense and humorous situations. The dialogues between the citizens seem like a family conversation. The author pulls you into the daily routine of this small town. Readers become emotionally involved in all the romantic drama.
- Sounds just like where I live, which is not Ireland. So maybe I'll pass on this. Thank you for a wonderful review.

This story sounds interesting, and I liked the element of the small town and everyone knowing everyone's business. I am so sad Mark and Niamh were separated, but I am happy they finally found closure. Congratulations on BOTD, and best wishes for future projects.

A well-written review.Thank you.
Congratulations to the author!
A beautiful plot. Small towns are noted for people who meddle and also contain a close Knit-styled community.
The name " Niamh" is enchanting, it has such an air of mythical mystery and I love the beautiful settings of Ireland for the backdrop of this story.

This romantic novel mixes passion and drama in an attractive setting that highlights Irish landmarks. Mark and Niamh seem to live an impossible love story. The well-developed supporting characters and third-person omniscient narrative are additional positives.

What a strange first meeting with the mystery girl! I wonder what measures Paul/Mark will go through to find her. I'm also curious to know whether his past will catch up with him. The mystery aspect makes the story so intriguing.

Told in the 3rd person POV, today's BOTD is a romance novel that'll have fans of the genre believing in love and rooting for the characters in search of it. In addition, readers will also learn about the magical beauty of Ireland, which is definitely a plus! Thank you for your wonderful review; keep up the great work! :-)

I'm not entirely a fan of romance novels, I love a mix of romance and action or crime thrillers but Niamh seems centered on only romance. But I do hope that Mark finds Niamh, congratulations on BOTD!!

Everyone familiar with or living in a small town will identify with how the citizens talk, as if they are holding everyday family conversations. It appears that Mark will have to do a lot to locate Niamh, and I hope they will reunite eventually. Certainly, I have added the book to my want-to-read shelf. The inclusion of enthralling and vivid descriptions is an amazing addition. Many thanks for this gripping, informative review.

The review of "Niamh" praises its emotional depth, blending passion and drama to evoke laughter and tears. The story follows Mark McCarty's quest for love in Ireland, particularly with the elusive Niamh. The small town setting, rich character development, and well-crafted dialogues contribute to the novel's appeal. The vivid descriptions of Irish landmarks and incorporation of cultural and historical information enhance the reader's experience. With minimal grammar errors, the book receives a 4-star rating, recommended for romance enthusiasts and those interested in Irish culture and history.

Lovely review! Wow, the beauty of love and romance taking place in a beautiful country like Ireland? Nice! A pleasant setting/atmosphere can work wonders in ways we both do and don’t expect. Hopefully, that magic is put to good use throughout the tides and turns of this book.

I would love to find out the experience of Niamh the beautiful Irish lady with Paul aka Mark and the changing of ones name on a guise to start afresh is really suspicious and I will like to find out why this is so.
