About The Book

Beloved Reconciliation:

Book 1: 1820-1916

This is a story not only about the strength of Irish women, but of women throughout the world who stand up right next to their male colleagues for justice and equality. They are inspired for the sake of their children, and their children’s children, to reconcile differences and bring peace to their families and homelands.

In everyone's life, whether we admit or not, there is an "Una"--be it a magical spirit or human mentor. In this historical fiction, Beloved Reconciliation Book 1: 1820-1916, Una is a radiant spirit who appears in ever-shifting form to five Irish women, reassuring them that they have the power to play crucial roles in their country's struggle for independence. From the Great Famine to the Easter Rising, she and the five women invite us to reconcile patriotism and fealty with romance and revenge as they and their families interact with key historical figures.
