Psychics in the Old West? Yup! Say howdy to Lyn Horner’ s Texas Devlins, whose hidden talents lead them across prairies and mountains, into the land of cowboys and Indians, with consequences not even a Druid seer could predict.

Darlin' Irish is the first volume in Horner's trilogy. Set in 1872, this book blends epic adventure and sizzling romance set ablaze by flashes of psychic power. Jessie Devlin, a daughter of Irish immigrants and a survivor of the Great Chicago Fire, is descended from the “ Old Ones,” her mother’ s name for their Irish Celtic Druid ancestors. Gifted with an ability to look into the future, Jessie dreams again and again of an unknown man who rescues her from the jaws of death. A prophetic vision convinces her the man is real and sends her west in search of him, but has her gift betrayed her? Will her quest lead to happiness or into a deadly trap?

Captain David Taylor may be the man Jessie seeks. A Texan exiled from home after fighting for "the wrong side" in the Civil War, David is returning to his frontier post when he meets Jessie in Omaha's train depot. He’ s entranced by her beauty but has no taste for her firecracker temper. She brings to mind a ghost from his past who he'd rather forget.

As the pair journey westward via the country's first transcontinental railroad, their clashing personalities war with a fiery attraction they can't easily ignore. Violence dogs their path along the rails and explodes amid the mountainous beauty of Mormon Utah. Whether love will triumph in their tumultuous game of hearts or be destroyed by a madman is a question that hangs in the balance until the shattering conclusion on the broad Texas plains.

Also look for Dashing Druid, volume 2 in the Texas Druids series. It stars Tye Devlin, Jessie's older brother. Set against a backdrop of Texas ranch life, an iconic cattle drive and feuding families, the tale delves into Tye's painful empathic ability and the impact it has upon his life and those he loves.
