    Great book

    This is such a great book, it has a little of everything. Romance, drama, mystery, comedy, history, fantasy. I couldn't put it down. I am now going to read the other books she has written.

    Mystical, mysterious, and delightful

    Publishers Weekly reviewed "The Wild Sight" describing it as a "smashing romantic suspense. sizzling romance." I know because I read the words on the cover. And it is an interesting cover. The girl on the shore--of the sea, of a fen?--with flowing hair and white dress could be ancient or modern, but the guy's chest seems to be appearing from a thoroughly modern shirt. A curious mix.

    And the book is a delightful mix too, with a wealth of intersecting stories: Rylie is looking for the father who deserted her in the States when she was a child; Donovan is trying to sell the family home without triggering the visions that sent him fleeing long ago; the professor wants to dig up old treasures, which naturally send Donovan back into the past, both recent and distant. And there's a body, guns and a Druid.

    I loved the way the author depicted Donovan's "sight." The switches between worlds were very smoothly done, touched with fear, loyalty, excitement, and even fun. Meanwhile Donovan and Rylie fight against the possibility of falling in love, afraid that they might in fact be brother and sister. The tension between them is neatly and powerfully handled, and I particularly loved their decision to resist temptation until there might be "no regrets."

    Ah, but what kind of regrets did they mean. The answers reveal themselves through past and present, giving the reader a wild exciting ride through recent and ancient Irish history. And true love wins through.

    This really was a fun book. I'd certainly recommend it.

    Intrigue and Romance in Ireland!

    This story was an amazing journey and adventure to Ireland written by first time author Loucinda McGary that I won't soon forget. Romance, mystery and paranormal genres are used together to create a book of magic and intrigue from beginning to end.

    An Irish lad trying to forget his 'gift' and an American girl trying to find her father are brought together in a small town in Ireland. As Rylie trys to locate her father, Donovan must use his clairvoyant ability, called "The Sight", to stir up old family secrets that may have been better off being left buried. The twists and turns of the mystery of their family legacy grows as people start turning up dead. The chemistry between Rylie and Donovan is intense it is hard for them to ignore, but would they have to fight these desires if they find they are related? A climatic ending finds Rylie her answers, but Donovan finds things he wasn't expecting to find.

    I truly loved this book!! I wasn't sure what to expect with it being a first time author, but the book swept me away to Ireland and had me at the end of the book WAY too soon! It has the perfect mix of genres that doesn't over do it on too much romance or mystery. The author seemed to have done her research on Irish history and lore to be come up with "The Sight" that Donovan had and how it mixed in with the landscape of the story.

    I would recommend this book to my friends to read...you can easily read it within a couple days.
