I didn't enjoy it as much as the first two in the trilogy. This last installment seemed too bit of a stretch for me, and a bit forced. Zach's character also seemed a bit flat, especially in comparison to his brothers, Aiden and Jeremy. Despite this last book, I did truly enjoy the trilogy and I'm glad I picked it up. I will most likely continue to read H.G. novels because I like her style of writing over all. If you don't want to give this last book a try, that's fine, but definitely read the first two.

Interesting twist with the Irish folklore and what they did with the concept of banshees. The story seemed rushed at times and while the ending wasn't at all what I expected...you see some of it coming but not enough to ruin the ending...it was still rushed.
Overall, this was a fun spooky time...and made me want to avoid birds for a bit

This is the book I liked the least in the trilogy.
I loved the Irish mythology elements and the suspense was good but the story missed something. Also, a reread by a good editor would have been welcome...

This was a good book how ever I do wish the author had done more to make it more interesting. I look forward to reading more of this author's work.

Horrified to admit this one’s a bitter disappointment.
A business partner goes missing before Sean and his trophy wife, Amanda, take a trip to Ireland. Soon after landing, Sean becomes very ill and almost dies. Sean’s daughter, Kat, calls Zach Flynn and pleads with him to go to Ireland and bring her father back. She’s terrified and paranoid that, with Eddie missing, her father is next.
Caer has been guarding Sean in his hospital room, determined that no more harm comes to him. It’s her mission to keep him alive. But there’s a mystery to Caer; in all appearances, she’s a nurse. However, appearances aren’t always what they seem.
Zach knows that something’s off, but can’t put a finger on what it is. While his instincts tell him to that he can trust Caer, he doesn’t understand why those same instincts are telling him that she isn’t saying the entire truth of who she is either.
But as things begin to happen (ex: more apparent murder crimes scenes with no bodies), and no clues, Zach is feeling the pressure of catching whoever is after Sean. But will he figure it out before it’s too late?
Caer is sticking to Zach like glue, knowing that he’ll be able to figure out whoever it is. But she’s fallen in love with him. But she can’t stay, and knowing she can’t stay, especially with Zach, hurts unbelievably. But she’s determined to help find who it is that means Sean harm, regardless of her feelings for Zach.

OMG! I don’t think I’ve ever been as disappointed in a Heather Graham novel as I am in this one.
First, there’s a typo that sticks in the reader’s craw; a typo that should have been seen to immediately. On the cover, the character’s name is Caer Donahue. In the story, it was switched to Cavannaugh. Incidentally, Cavanaugh is Rowenna’s last name (heroine of Book #2). While I think it could be just a simple mistake, it’s still a huge no-no, and I wasn’t impressed. I think it wouldn’t have been so bad if it had been a different name, but using one that had already been used… Not good.
The mystery plot was unoriginal; it’s been used before (very similar to two of her other books - The Vision and Eyes of Fire). Right down to how the plot has actually two perpetrators, not just the one. The animosity felt between the women of the household was typical; dad remarries to a completely shallow idiot who’s only five years older than his daughter - daughter believes the new wife to be a gold-digger - they have nothing whatsoever in common - daughter is just your typical spoiled brat and should grow up”. While the animosity is typical, it’s one that’s been overused and I wish that the author went with something else. I was getting to the point where I wanted to shout to the female characters to grow up.
Then there’s the hero and heroine. I liked Zach. An ex-cop now private detective with a love for music and helping musicians, he immediately moves to aid his friends, people that he cares about deeply that he’s known most of his life. Sean had been a friend of Zach’s father’s, and that friendship moved on to Zach and his brothers. Strong, self-reliant, you can see that he understands a cop’s life and that he respects them, knowing what they go through. And throughout, he refused to accuse anyone of anything until he knew exactly who, what, and the why of it all.
As for the heroine, Caer (pronounced Kyre) could have used more work. The whole paranormal angle used, the folklore of Ireland stating that Banshees, the spirits that help guide souls to cross over, can sometimes take human form, was the wrong one to use. I came across as … as … silly! And then you understand why the elderly aunt passes away in the story - only a true-to-heart soul can take the place of a banshee that is in human for so that banshee may stay in human form. Caer is first a nurse in Ireland, watching over Sean, and is sent to Rhode Island with him as a ruse to keeping track of his recovery, when she was there to guard him and keep him alive, to figure out who and why someone would want him dead. And yet, how is she supposed to do any of that when her ‘credentials’ show her only as a nurse? Of course she’d stick to Zach like glue, and we only see her actually investigating only once? What was up with that?
We’re made to believe that Caer is attracted to Zach even before she meets him in person; it was his eyes in the picture that Sean had in his hospital room that first attracted her. For Zach, he felt a pull the second he walked into Sean’s hospital room to see Caer there. I saw a bigger inner battle with his brothers when it came time to the women that I saw with Zach. And of course he wouldn’t believe her when she told him the truth, that she was a banshee in human form whose mission was to keep Sean alive. I wouldn’t have believed it either, and even after I finished the book, I thought it was ridiculous. I could understand why she fell in love with Zach. I could understand why Zach fell in love with Caer. But I still didn’t feel a true attraction, that pull that makes the reader truly believe in their HEA. It felt like it happened because it was supposed to, that the author just threw them together for the hell of it.
The only thing I actually liked about the book was the fact that there were two perpetrators and not just one, and why. The simple greed of it, but that there was a partnership in it and it wasn’t solely one character. Other than that, the entire thing felt rushed. There was never another attempt directly on Sean’s life, but there were actions taken against the entire family, purposely to throw attention on someone else. That part was intriguing, but that’s about it. I’m really surprised, as I’d never read a Heather Graham novel that felt rushed, that was just pushed out there without another thought. Truly disappointing, especially from one of my fave authors. My heart breaks at the thought of not being able to give this one a higher mark, but I’d be betraying my feelings on this book if I gave it more.

I am kind of on the fence about this book. On one hand it was a very good book. On the other, as the end to a trilogy, I am not very impressed. I would much rather it have been a stand alone book. It didn’t follow the same pattern as the two previous; it went completely off the charts in its content.
So as a stand alone book, I really enjoyed it. This book is about Zach Flynn, the youngest of the Flynn brothers. He gets a phone call that a long time family friend has become deathly ill overseas. Being the stand up guy that he is, he drops everything and heads off to Ireland to help Sean O’Riley get back home to his family so he can recover in his own surroundings. Once home he also needs to investigate the disappearance of Eddie Ray, Sean’s business partner and lifelong friend. Is Eddie’s disappearance connected to Sean’s sudden near fatal illness?
This book has a very colorful cast of characters. From Amanda, Sean’s wife, who is about 40 years younger, to Kat – the very protective daughter, to family friends Cal and Marni whom you can’t really decide what side they are on, to old country Bridey, who is full of tales of the homeland, and Caer (pronounced kyre) – the Irish nurse hired to watch over Sean while he recovers. Zach certainly has his hands full in this whodunit story. There are lots of twists and turns, which I’ve already come to expect from Heather Graham. I really appreciate that she keeps her audience guessing, rather than hanging a neon side proclaiming who the villain is.
On the con side, this story moved a little slower for me than the two before it. In its defense, I think part of that reason is because I borrowed the whole trilogy from the library at once, and so there was no break in reading – I got a little tired of the Flynn brothers (although I wouldn’t mind revisiting Jeremy Flynn sometime!). The other part of the reason is going back to how different this book was from the other two. Normally that wouldn’t be a problem for me. But in a trilogy I like to keep things similar. I don’t want to give a spoiler away on how it’s different, that would ruin the whole secret. That’s something you will just have to read for yourself!

Pretty good supernatural book, with a romance slant. The plot is not predictable. Although the romance is.

Where is Eddie? Who wants Sean dead? Are Banshees real? This paranormal mystery is full of questions. The youngest Flynn brother meets his lady.

Sean O'Riley barely survives what might have been a murder attempt but nobody can prove that he had been given a poison although his daughter insists that his trophy wife is trying to kill him. Caer Cavannaugh is sent back to RI with Sean and his wife Amanda. Sean believes she is a private duty nurse but she is also investigating the near fatal incident for The Agency.
Meanwhile, the Flynn Brothers are quite close to Sean who helped them when their parents died years ago and who became a surrogate Dad. Zachary is determined to find who killed Sean's partner and why as well as what was behind Sean's near fatal collapse. Of course, he doesn't trust Caer but ends up falling in love.
It was interesting to read about a banshee. Caer is a banshee, of course, and according to folklore her job is to guide those who are passing into paradise. Zach knows there is something about Caer, but doesn’t find out the truth until almost the end. There was mystery element to this book as well- and the mystery was to find out who killed Sean O’Riley’s business partner. I had trouble figuring it out, but suspected the third partner, his wife, and O’Riley’s young wife (Amanda). It ended up being Amanda and the third partner’s wife, and the truth was that they were lovers.
Not as good as number 1, or number 2. Number 2 was definitely the best by far of all three in this trilogy.

Ok, I'm now thoroughly and completely through with Heather Graham. I've read other books by her and been really ok to enjoy them for what they were -- mediocre, fun, brain candy. Some fun storylines, some frisky sex scenes, some psuedo paranormal mystery. The first book had some of that, but the second two fell FAR short.
First, her "trilogy" was not. There wasn't a damn thing connecting these books together other than the three main male characters were brothers -- and each brother is the main character in one of the books and only act as very secondary characters in the other two.
Deadly Gift was choppy, the characters underdeveloped, the storylines were blurred and weak at best. I'm not sure if the blame lies only on the author. The book felt like pieces were missing, so perhaps it was slash and burn editing? I don't know. But it'll take a really good recommendation before I pick up another Heather Graham book.

When Millionaire Sean O'Riley and his young wife travel to Ireland, he becomes deathly ill. Signs say he may have been poisoned, so Nurse Caer Cavannaugh is assigned to take care of him. Sean's daughter believes someone is trying to kill him, so she called Private Investigator Zach Flynn, asking him to bring her father home. Zach starts looking into the situation and finds that Sean's friend and business partner has disappeared, his sailboat found abandoned. Now Zach and Caer must try to keep Sean out of harms way before the killer strikes again.
This is the third book in the Flynn Brothers trilogy. It suffers from a weak (boring) mystery, and a lukewarm romance. The paranormal aspects of the story were laughable, and the book needed a good editor to catch several glaring mistakes. I ended up skimming the second half of the book. My rating: 1.5 Stars.

It was interesting to read about a banshee. It made me see banshees in a different light (of course the last time I saw anything about a banshee was on CHARMED, and the banshee was evil there, lol). Caer (pronounced kyre, I believe) is a banshee, of course, and according to folklore her job is to guide those who are passing into paradise. Zach knows there is something about Caer, but doesn’t find out the truth until almost the end.

As far as the Flynn Brother's Trilogy goes, this is by far the weakest in the series. The other two managed to intertwine the paranormal with normal life, and managed to hold a "believable" plot. This one, however, was way over into the realm of fantasy. I suppose that would be fine, if I had expected it to be 99% fantasy and 1% reality. The plot surrounding the "brother" is thin, which confuses me, as it is a "Flynn Brother's Novel."
Anyway, I thought it was "okay." As an American with strong Irish roots, I can appreciate the addition of Irish Legends, but felt she went OVERBOARD with them.
I don't think I can even recommend this book. If you were a fan of the first two, just skip this one, you'll be much happier that way.

NOO! It was such a great series, and then it ended with this one. Ugh. Really bad. It didn't have the sweet romance story from the beginning nor did it have the terror from the second book. It just had a bad storyline, with flat characters and storyline and dialogue that made me roll my eyes. How disappointing.
The only reason I gave it a 2 was because the other 2 books in the trilogy were great. If this had been a stand alone I would have given it a 1. What a waste.

Have finally come to the conclusion that I just don't like the way HG writes so I have given up on this last one in the series and am returning all the others I checked out to the library...and that just goes to show that just because your library may carry a lot of one author it doesn't mean you will enjoy their work...but major kudos to any and all authors who put their stuff out there

Great Reading ... The Whole group.. wish there was more.
The beginning was slow, Of course you know she is special... but once it gets Going.. keeps you reading.. even staying up late💤🛏. When you should be in bed.. but you can not stop reading till the end... loved all the books.

This one was my favorite out of the trilogy. When Zach Flynn meets Caer Cavannaugh for the first time he is struck by her beauty. Something draws him to her like a moth to a flame but he doesn't trust her. The more he is around her he finds his beliefs of what is real and what isn't are in question.
December 20, 2008
This third book in The Flynn Brothers Trilogy is Zach's story and even though it is part of the trilogy it works well as a stand-alone read. An intriguing paranormal murder mystery with a little romance thrown in. I was kept entertained and guessing until the very end.
May 11, 2018
Good ending to the trilogy. Loved the Newport setting. Not many authors pick Rhode Island as their location for the book. Best "gotcha" of the three. Look forward to reading more by this author.

This book was the worst of the 3 books in this trilogy. The whole banshee thing just killed it for me, it was so far from the other three that I just couldn't go there with it.

Excellent book, just like all of hers. I can't wait until I read the next book. Heather Graham is an excellent author and her Krewe books are great.

Fantastic Read
This book was a great read I love the Irish folklore that was entwined in the story. This author has a wonderful way of telling a story that keeps you wanting more.

Absolute page turner, I couldn't put it down. And I never thought death could be described as beauty until this book for "life is a gift,and love is what we'll make of it."said by Zach Flynn

Not as good as first two books but very good. I liked the idea of Irish folklore but should have built on it more and been more descriptive about the main characters gifts. End was great!

I enjoyed this trilogy (read them one right after the other), each one dedicated to a different Flynn brother. Good supernatural reads before Halloween!
