Research librarian Nan Galvin discovers a box of letters in her mother's things and learns the woman had corresponded with a person called Corey. Since losing both her parents, she has an overwhelming desire to learn more about her mother and so she embarks on a ten-day visit to the County Cork village where her mother stayed twenty-seven years earlier.

Arriving at Shannon, she's met by Riley Quinn, a songwriter, helper in the family pub and the owner of the cottage where she's going to stay. It's instant attraction for both of them, but Nan isn't about to let a flirtation with a drop-dead gorgeous Irishman get in the way of her mission of discovery. And Riley has no plans to settle down and isn't about to fall for an American who'll soon be gone. Or will he?

This latest Quinn adventure by Kate Hoffman combines delightful characterization with stunning Irish scenery and enough hot sex to steam your glasses. It's obvious Ms. Hoffman also loves Ireland and has traveled there or read some pretty thorough travel books. I run an Irish travel website and have visited County Cork numerous times and felt the realism, right down to the Guinness and Clancy Brothers songs.

The Mighty Quinns: Riley is well written and a delight to read. I will be looking forward to Ms. Hoffman's next Quinn story.
