Ring of Truth Ciji Ware

Publisher Marketing: When your heart speaks, will you listen? Once upon a time, three beloved storytellers-New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Ciji Ware along with Diana Dempsey and Kate Moore-wondered what would happen if a magical ring fell into a woman's hands-along with the urgent instruction that she learn its lesson in seven days or forever lose its wisdom. Who will take up the ring's challenge? Who will pass it by, even if her heart's deepest desire hangs in the balance? This trio of romantic and inspiring tales imagines the lives of three San Francisco women transformed by the iconic Claddagh ring-the timeless Irish symbol of love, friendship, and fidelity worn not only by Jackie Kennedy and Princess Grace, but by scores of citizens and firefighters who fought their last battle in New York's Twin Towers on 9/11.
