Ever After by Nora Roberts
An exclusive Nora Roberts short story.

Allena has always struggled to get her life on track. And, true to form, on a trip to Ireland she is distracted by a beautiful ancient pendant and a strange storm leaves her stranded on a distant island.

Allena is forced to take shelter with her rescuer: the rugged and surly Conal. But Conal is horrified to see Allena wearing the pendant - a sign that fate is catching up with him. He fights it at every turn, but the enchanting Allena alters his life in ways he never thought possible.

I honestly don't have much to say about this book. It is simplistic and written very basically, yet it has a certain something that endears me to read it again and continue with the series. The plight of the Westward Pioneers is something I have a great personal interest and considerable knowledge so it is nice to know that Ingalls Wilder has not elaborated and 'tweaked' too much of her life to make this more exciting. It is a true representation of the daily life of those first brave Americans who went west to find space, fame and fortune; something that was iconic of the era and this book captures that beautifully. Very much looking forward to reading the next in the series!
