Sinopse:

Branna O'Dwyer has a rich and remarkable life. Her little shop in County Mayo is thriving and her close circle of friends and family have found love and happiness. But Branna's own heart remains closed - to protect herself and the man she loves from a terrible threat. She reached out once to Finbar Burke - and it almost destroyed them both. Fin and Branna have both inherited a gift for magic, but Fin shares his blood with an old and terrible enemy. And so the two friends have kept their distance, both secretly yearning for the impossible. That distance has kept them safe - and unhappy. But as a final battle draws close, Branna and Fin are brought irresistibly together. And while they succumb to the heat between them, there can be no promises for tomorrow…

Opinião:
Blood Magick é o último livro da trilogia dos Primos O’Dwyer e traz-nos a história de Branna e Fin, que em jovens tiveram uma curta relação até que ela descobriu que Fin era descendente do homem que era a causa de todos os seus problemas, um feiticeiro malvado que tentou seduzir Sorcha, de quem Branna, Connor e Iona são descentes.

Mas o que Branna não sabe é que Fin (que sempre lutou pelo lado da luz), não tem só sangue deste feiticeiro. Mas dizer mais seria um spoiler. É interessante ver o arrependimento de Sorcha pela maldição que criou, a luta de toda a família para terminar todo o processo para matar de uma vez por todas este homem/criatura que era um monstro.

É um livro que mostra a luta interior de várias personagens pela sua felicidade como indivíduos e como grupo, toda uma evolução que culmina com um final feliz. Um final apropriado para a série, com muita magia, sedução e romance, amizade e uma nova etapa que começa. Vão deixar saudades.

Review:
Blood Magick is the last book of the Cousins O’Dwyer trilogy and it brings us the story of Branna and Fin, whom as young people had had a romance until she discovered that Fin bared the mark of the man she was doomed to fight, and the cause of all their problems: the evil witch that had tried to seduce Sorcha, from whom Branna, Connor and Iona descended. He was the person that had made them all come together to fight him and at the same time kept them apart.

But what Branna doesn’t know is that Fin (who has always fought on the side of light) doesn’t only carried this sorcerer’s blood – but telling you who he is also a descendant from would be a spoiler. It’s interesting to see Sorcha’s regret for her curse, the fight (both inner and exterior) that this family and friends have to do to end once and for all the malevolent man/creature that was this monstrous wizard.

It’s a book that shows how hard it is to let go of some ideas, and how hard you have to fight for happiness as an individual, but also as a group part of a family, with an evolution that culminates in a happy ending. An appropriate ending, with lots of magic, seduction and romance, friendship and new beginnings. I’ll miss them.
