What a wonderful tale ye be spinning. I had to Google the fair young maidens' name. How the hell does the Irish get EeFa from that spelling is a total mystery to me. Looking forward to more of your tale. Five Stars!
What a great beginning to what promises to be a truly great read. Bravos.
He shares quite the heart-pounding adventure with Aoife (pronounced EE-fah) and although he (by Aoife's estimation) seems a bit brutish...he's more a bystander of his male nature than a lecherous male. No way Declan and Aoife do NOT bond over this hardship--and there's even some glimmer of trust in him--as she returned after washing at the tavern instead of running.
I love how you detail the sounds of the countryside, smells, nature and the animals. 5
