2018 School Spending Survey Report
The Lady of Galway Manor
COPY ISBN
Stephen Jennings is peddling a lie: He works in his family’s jewelry store and retells the legend of the Irish Claddagh ring, but he doesn’t even believe in love. Living in 1920s Ireland doesn’t help his cynicism as he watches his impoverished neighbors struggle, the result of British imperialism. When British aristocrat Anna De Lacy is assigned as Stephen’s apprentice in the shop, sparks fly, but they both fight a growing attraction. De Lacy has been raised to view the Irish as uncivilized peasants, but as she studies the art and music of her new country, she begins to question the version of history she has been taught. Jennings struggles to trust the aristocracy, as violence against his own family has soured him against all English people.
VERDICT Deibel (A Dance in Donegal) has found her rhythm, delivering a classic boy-meets-girl story that packs a powerful punch and avoids preachiness. The historical tale will ring true to readers looking to examine their own biases. Fans of Christian historical romance by Karen Witemeyer and Deanne Gist will enjoy this up-and-coming author.
