Born in Shame / Nora Roberts / 357 pages / Scottish-Irish Challenge

Although steamy at times, this is a most satisfying audio book.  Shannon Bodine, a talented graphic artist at a prestigious New York advertising agency, is shocked to learn from her mother's deathbed that her real father was Thomas Concannon, a married Irishman with children.  She is devasted, but respecting her late mother's wish, she journeys to County Clare to meet her other family.  She arrives reluctantly and in shame, and finds true family and true love.  Fiacre Douglas does an awesome job with the Irish accents and the story itself is heartwarming, too good to be true, and inspires multiple chuckles.
