			        		&quot;An intriguing look at an always fascinating era in U.S. History.&quot; -- Library Journal&quot;{Leaves} readers absolutely entranced!&quot; -- Romantic TimesMs. Hunt is an expert storyteller and Velvet Shadow is her masterpiece!&quot; -- Gloria Miller, the Literary TimesThe heirs of Cahira O&apos;Connor were women who gave up traditional roles to fight for right. Is Kathleen O&apos;Connor a direct descendant of Cahira&apos;s and destined to do great things? As Kathleen reads the journal of Cahira&apos;s descendant, Flanna O&apos;Connor, the young southern belle who attends medical school in Boston intrigues her and we are thrust into the past . . . Flanna has tentatively agreed to marry Roger Haynes, but when she meets his brother Major Alden Haynes, she becomes confused by her feelings for him. Flanna passes her final exam and is desperate to return to her father in Charleston, but all southbound transportation has stopped because the Civil War has begun. In order to return home, Flanna disguises herself as a soldier and begins to aid the sick. Flanna puts her trust in the Lord for it is her belief and faith in Him that guides her, but Alden discovers her ruse. He allows her to stay and continue doctoring the wounded until he can arrange for safe transport and together they share some harrowing experiences. Alden and Flanna love each other but are under the impression that the others heart belongs to someone else, and it isn&apos;t until Roger makes a supreme sacrifice that they finally acknowledge their feelings, only to be separated again. Taylor Morgan, who gave Kathleen the journal, wants to know what happened to Flanna and Alden so she tells him, plus a surprise she learned about him! This is a powerful, unique story as we view the war mostly through Flanna&apos;s eyes, and while the reader gets the impression that for the most part, the war was tedious and boring, this book is anything but! I applaud Ms. Hunt for the thorough research, as it supports the authenticity and credibility of Flanna&apos;s story. Enthralling! Ms. Hunt is an expert storyteller and The Velvet Shadow is her masterpiece! Very well written as Ms. Hunt develops the tender romance between this atypical southern belle and her northern soldier during the most horrible period of our history! Completely wonderful! I highly recommend and urge you to read The Velvet Shadow - you&apos;ll love it! Gloria Miller -- Copyright &#xA9; 030199 Literary Times, Inc.

			        		THE HEIRS OF CAHIRA O&#x92;CONNOR SERIES - BOOK THREE It is said that as Cahira, daughter of the great Irish king Rory O&#x92;Connor, lay dying of a wound from a Norman blade, she lifted her hand toward heaven and beseeched God that others would follow&#x85;breaking forth from the courses to which they are bound to restore right in this murderous world&#x85;To Kathleen O&#x92;Connor, Cahira&#x92;s story was nothing more than a legend&#x96;until research divulged that the tale was true. Stunned, Kathleen realizes she herself bears Cahira&#x92;s mark. Is she destined to continue the legacy? To find the truth, Kathleen must delve into the past to find the truth about The Heirs of Cahira O&apos;Connor&#x85; When Flanna O&#x92;Connor, a young medical student in Boston, is cut off from her family in Charleston at the start of the Civil War, she decides to disguise herself and move south with the Union Army. While in disguise, she must prove herself as a soldier and a doctor, both to her messmates and to Major Alden Haynes, brother to the man she has tentatively agreed to marry. But when Flanna and Alden are trapped between two armies, can Flanna trust God with her future&#x85;and with the love she has sought all her life?

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great book Great author Poor editing!
        
*by K***R on April 15, 2016*

I have really been enjoying this series.  Ms. Hunt has an extraordinary gift for making characters come alive from the very first page.  However, I have to say that the editing of the Kindle edition of this book is atrocious.  There are very few sentences without some glaring error.  I hope someone will re-edit this book - at least the Kindle edition, as it is a shame to ruin this book with poor editing!
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun series
        
*by A***R on October 7, 2016*

This is a fun series. It is an easy read and not inappropriate for young teens. I have a young teen and have to preread a lot of books I order for her because I once accidentally gave her a romance novel. Bad parent award! So if you are a parent, these books are more than fine to give to young book lovers. The stories are predictable but enjoyable.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heirs of Cahira O'Connor
        
*by L***N on August 7, 2018*

I enjoyed all five books in this series. I liked how the author takes you back and forth in time.
