  • Kinder Des Sturms Buch
    NORA ROBERTS Kinder des Sturms Buch Darcy Gallagher hat ihr Leben lang an die Vorbestimmung ihres Schicksals geglaubt, an die Magie der Legenden – und an die Wichtigkeit des Geldes. Sie träumt von einem wohlhabenden Mann, der sie in die abenteuerliche Welt der Reichen und Schönen entführt. Denn das ist ihre Erfüllung, das weiß sie. Ei- nes Tages taucht Trevor Magee, ein reicher Geschäftsmann irischer Abstam- mung, in Ardmore auf. Er möchte dort in Irland, wo Darcy mit ihren Brü- dern Aidan und Shawn einen Pub führt, ein Theater bauen. Hauptsächlich je- doch möchte er die Geheimnisse seiner Familie ergründen und ist auf der Stel- le fasziniert von der eigenwilligen Darcy. Sie lässt ihn mit ihrer Schönheit und wachen Intelligenz die schmerzliche Vergangenheit vergessen. Zwischen der selbstbewussten Darcy und dem starrsinnigen Trevor entbrennt ein wilder Kampf um eine unmöglich scheinende Partnerschaft ihrer Herzen. Als aber ihre gegenseitige Anziehung zu Liebe wird, geschieht etwas Magisches, etwas völlig Unvorhergesehenes … Autorin Nora Roberts schrieb vor rund zwanzig Jahren ihren ersten Roman und hoff- te inständig, veröffentlicht zu werden.
