Ireland -- a land of unbridled spirit, ancient legends, whitewashed cottages and storybook castles. A place where anything can happen and there are no strangers -- until now.

Quinn Gallagher has reluctantly come to Castlelough. He's cynical, bitter and disillusioned. But the magic of the west coast is about to change him.

He's never met anyone like Nora Fitzpatrick. Despite all of life's hardships, the young widow still has a generous heart. Quinn can't help himself. He falls in love.

But life has taught Quinn never to trust in anything . . . especially a happy ending. In A Woman's Heart, JoAnn Ross has created a rich lyrical love story about land, community, family and the very special bond between a man who doesn't believe in anything and a woman who believes in him.
