Dearest Irish: Texas Devlins, Book Four Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 34 ratings

Native American romance that will make you believe in powers of the mind. . .and the power of love to heal two wounded souls.

Dearest Irish concludes Lyn Horner's chronicles of the amazing Devlin siblings. Each possesses a rare psychic talent they hide for fear of persecution. Set 1876, this book stars Rose, youngest of the three. Rose has an extraordinary ability to heal with her mind, a secret gift that has caused her great pain in the past. She also harbors another darker secret, one that threatens her chances of ever finding love.

Choctaw Jack, a half-breed cowboy introduced in Dashing Irish (Texas Devlins, Book Three) straddles two worlds, dividing his loyalties between his mother’s people and the family of a friend who died in the Civil War. Like Rose, he keeps shocking secrets. If they ever come to light, he stands to lose his job, possibly his life. Yet, after discovering Rose’s healing gift, Jack risks everything, kidnapping her from her brother's Texas ranch in a desperate attempt to save his dying mother.

As Jack spirits Rose away into the heart of Indian Territory, she comes to accept his reason for abducting her but fears the feelings he stirs within her. Tested by natural forces and white men who revile Jack and scorn Rose for riding with him, Jack soon discovers the greatest risk he faces may be caring too much for his lovely paleface captive.

Will Rose heal Jack's mother? How will his Indian relatives take to a white woman in their midst? And what will Rose's brother do when he tracks the pair down?

Editorial Reviews

Review

". . . combines both the good and bad of the American Frontier. . . . tackles prejudices, not only between the white man and the Indian, but toward anyone who is different. . . . a tall order for a romance novel! Fortunately it is one Ms. Horner fulfills beautifully. . . . for those who want to read and learn without being deeply affected - except with the romance - now that's another story altogether and one that will make every lover sigh!" - InD'Tale Magazine, July/August 2013

From the Back Cover

Rose Devlin and her siblings are blessed with secret psychic talents. Rose has the wondrous ability to heal with her mind, but burdened by another, more terrible secret, she despairs of ever knowing love.

Half-breed cowboy Choctaw Jack also harbors secrets, ones that could cost him his job, even his life. Yet he risks everything, kidnapping Rose in a desperate attempt to save his dying mother. As he spirits his lovely paleface captive north to the Indian Territory, the greatest risk of all may be their growing attraction to one another.


"Lyn Horner has done an outstanding job . . . This story has it all. . . The plot is realistic and the characters were wonderfully portrayed." --Big Al's Books and Pals

This was a beautiful romance and it was a book filled with amazing characters. I loved this book and although there is no need to read the series in order you would be missing out on two other wonderful love stories. --Linda Tonis, Paranormal Romance Guild

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lyn Horner resides in Fort Worth, Texas – “Where the West Begins” – with her husband and several very spoiled cats. Her two grown children live within easy driving distance along with a gaggle of delightful grandkids.

Trained in the visual arts at the prestigious Minneapolis College of Art and Design, Lyn worked as a fashion illustrator and art instructor for a number of years before turning to her longtime love of writing. She takes pride in crafting passionate love stories, both historical and contemporary. When not writing, Lyn enjoys reading, gardening, genealogy, visiting with family and friends, and cuddling her furry, four-footed children.

The author’s Texas Devlins series blends authentic Old West settings, steamy romance and a glimmer of paranormal. This series has earned multiple awards and nominations, including Crowned Heart reviews and a Rone Award nomination from InD’Tale Magazine.

Lyn was a contributor to Rawhide ʼn Roses, a Western Romance Anthology. This book was a finalist in the 2015 RONE Awards anthology category. Lyn was also part of the bestselling western Christmas anthology Silver Belles and Stetsons. Regrettably, these books are no longer available. However, she is represented in The Posse, a historical western anthology available on Amazon.

Jumping from the American Old West to the present time, Lyn immersed herself in her eight-book romantic suspense series, Romancing the Guardians. These books combine her trademark flashes of psychic phenomena with Irish folklore and a chilling pre-apocalyptic theme. Along the way, readers are treated to thunderous action, terrifying suspense and sizzling romance in places around the world.

    I love all of Lyn Horner's historicals but this one topped them all. Lyn weaves the paranormal into the story fabric so gently, that it seems like an everyday event. There was no reason to suspend disbelief; I believed from beginning to end. Historicals are my favorite genre and with or without the paranormal, this book would go on my keepers shelf. Chocktaw Jack is very a believable Indian character with not only the usual baggage a halfbreed faces among whites but the stigman of being called a wartime coward as well. Rose starts out shy and fearful but with his help learns to express her feisty Irish side and to stop hiding and fearing her gift of healing. If you love historicals and paranormal, this book is a special treat!

    5 stars for an endearing tale of. Love and western excitement that will make you read the two other tails in the series. The story of roses family and their rare gifts and the persecution they suffered for being different is what endeared it to me as I have heard of Many people's who have been feared for being different including the blacks and native Americans. This story is pure joy and the love between rose and Jack timeless. A great read.
