A legal fight ensues, and Sean befriends Ailish, determined to change her mind and keep her from destroying his sister’s family.

And as his feelings grow for a woman he knows he should not want and can never have, he faces an agonizing choice – stand with his sister or follow his heart.

“A sweeping historical love story that hits all the marks.” –Publisher’s Weekly starred review

Your feet will bring you to where your heart is.
Ireland 1846. With Ireland ravaged by famine and England unsympathetic to its plight, Kathleen Deacey faces a devastating choice – leave her country to find work or risk dying there. Despising the English for refusing to help Ireland, she crosses the ocean to support her family and search for her missing fiancé.

But when her voyage goes awry, she must accept help from an English whaling captain, Jack Montgomery, who represents everything she despises – and with whom she is reluctantly falling in love. As Kathleen fights to save her family back in Ireland, she finds herself facing yet another devastating choice – remain loyal to her country or follow her heart.

Award-winning author Pamela Ford captures the anguish of a devastating period in Irish history and delivers a historical saga of hope, loyalty, the strength of the human spirit, and the power of love. With more than a half million copies of her books sold worldwide, she is known for creating stories that are emotional and moving.

My Review: 

To Ride a White Horse begins the Out of Ireland series by Pamela Ford. I had already read the second book, A Rush of White Wings, previously. So, I had the pleasure of learning about some of the characters that were part of this story. I enjoyed that one and I was not at all disappointed with this one. Readers are introduced to Kathleen Deacey in 1846. She and her family are living in devastated Ireland. She is seeking for a new life and find a way to support her family. She, also, wants to get far away from the English as much as possible. They have caused her so much heartache and pain. However, when she is on a ship to cross the ocean to North America, she meets an English captain, Jack Montgomery. The two have undeniable chemistry. I loved Kathleen’s courage to do what is right for herself and was hoping for the best for her. It is a beautiful story that I could not put down. 

To Ride a White Horse is getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy historical fiction. I am hoping that there will be a third book from the Out of Ireland series releasing in the near future. I am not ready to say good bye to wonderful these characters. 

I received To Ride a White Horse from the publisher. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
