Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Moonlit Whisper by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Moonlit Whisper is a novella in Amy McKinley’s Moonlit Destination Series. The series collects short romantic reads set in different locations – in this case, it is Ireland. Moonlit Whisper can be enjoyed as a standalone – it doesn’t follow on at all from Moonlit Mirage, which is connected to the Gray Ghost series.
Set in Dublin, Moonlit Whisper tells the story of Fiona, Connor and Lachlan. Childhood friends, the trio is split up when Connor accepts a football (soccer) scholarship in the US in order to help his mum escape from domestic abuse. Old enough to return to Ireland without his mother, Connor is back and keen to pick up where he left off with Fiona.
It’s a classic love triangle, with Fiona stuck in the middle forced to choose between her two friends while they compete with each other both on and off the football field. There are many factors that complicate things and a few wee mysteries to piece together.
I would say, as a Destination book, more could have been made of the setting, but we do get to explore a bit of Dublin as the characters figure things out between them.
For me, this is a four-star read. It’s great if you want a quick burst of romance in one sitting!
