Irish Eyes

Irish Eyes
TRAVEL FROM IRELAND TO NEW YORK IN THIS COMPELLING HISTORICAL ROMANCE OF HEARTBREAK AND SECOND CHANCES SET IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY.

December 1898. In the aftermath of Americas war with Spain over Cuba and the Philippines, eighteen year-old Rose O’Neill leaves her beloved Aran Islands and boards a steamer for New York City in search of the Yank soldier who swore to marry her. Herded through the temporary emigrant landing depot at The Battery, abandoned and alone, she discovers the New York streets are no more paved in gold than those of Galway. To survive, she must ford through Lower East Side tenements and sweatshops, Fifth Avenue mansions and tony hotelstangling with Tammany Hall for the soul of the man with whom her fate is inextricably linked while fighting her feelings for the first love who still holds her heart. Just as she begins to make peace with the past, the Great War erupts in Europe, threatening to topple the dynasty for which she has sacrificed so much.

An expansive, breath-taking tale . . . Roses voice is eloquent and lyrical, the writing glorious, and the historical detail superb. Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Spectacular

Hope Tarr’s IRISH EYES is romantic, lyrical, and rich with historical detail. Readers will root for the brave Rose as she navigates the immigrant experience in an ever-expanding New York City. A compelling read! Heather Webb, USA Today bestselling author of The Next Ship Home
