Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The text of a local legend, which turns out to be true, is where the titles of all three books come from. Who is this legend about?

Answer: Prince Carrick and Lady Gwen

Prince Carrick gathered diamonds from the sun, pearls from the moon, and sapphires from the sea to give to Lady Gwen. She rejected all his gifts, because he never spoke of loving her.
2. In "Jewels of the Sun," we focus on Aiden and Jude. Why has Jude come to Ireland?

Answer: She needed a vacation.

Jude had recently been divorced, and was unhappy with her job. When a friend of her grandmother's died, and her grandmother inherited a cottage in Ireland, her granny suggested Jude go there for a well-needed vacation.
3. In "Jewels of the Sun," Aiden makes the same mistake Carrick did with Gwen. Instead of telling Jude he loves her, how does he propose to her?

Answer: He says he needs a wife and she should marry him.

Jude politely thanks him for thinking of her, but says no. She then goes back to the party, leaving him stunned. When Aiden tells his brother about what happened, his brother wonders if Aiden happened to tell Jude that he loved her.
4. In "Tears of the Moon," we focus on Aiden's brother Shawn and their friend Brenna. What is Brenna's full name?

Answer: Mary Brenna Katherine O'Toole

We hear her full name only a few times, because like all her sisters, Brenna is commonly called by her middle name.
5. In "Tears of the Moon," Shawn sells his first song. It doesn't have a name till the very end of the book. Who does he name it after?

Answer: Brenna

As the book ends, Brenna says he'll need a name for the song he's just sold. He replies that it was always "Brenna's Song." It's a good thing she loved it.
6. In "Heart of the Sea" we are introduced to a new character. Why is Trevor Magee in Ireland?

Answer: To build a theatre attached to Gallagher's Pub.

He's there to build the theatre, although in a way he is visiting family, as his family came from Ireland a few generations ago. Although he does want to buy Shawn's music, he's already been doing that and didn't need to meet him for that.
7. In "Heart of the Sea," the sapphire Carrick gives to Darcy is even more special then the gems he gave to Jude and Shawn in the previous two books. Why?

Answer: She can wish for her heart's desire on it.

The hundreds of gems Carrick pours out of his sack for each of them do indeed turn into flowers, but one gem always remains. Darcy doesn't use the gem however, because what she wants most is for Trevor to love her, and she doesn't want magic to be the cause of that.
8. Aiden, Shawn, and Darcy run Gallagher's Pub. Why are they in charge of it?

Answer: Their parents moved to America and left it to them.

Gallagher's has been in their family for many generations, so long in fact that they have their own hangover remedy, which they call Gallagher's Fix. Aiden says once that when a man serves drinks for a living, he's honor-bound to have a cure for the next day.
9. Near the end of "Heart of the Sea," Trevor helps Jude deliver her first child. In honor of that, the child's middle name is that of Trevor's mother. What is the baby named?

Answer: Ailish Carolyn Gallagher

Jude went into labor quickly, and because of a severe storm the phones were out, so they couldn't call the doctor. Although Aiden, Brenna, Shawn, and Darcy were all there, Trevor was nominated to deliver the baby because he'd been his sister's back-up coach several times and been to all the birthing classes with her.
10. And the last question, which is of course the hardest. What color eyes does Gwen have?

Answer: Green

The first time Aiden tells Jude the legend in "Jewels of the Sun," he says that Gwen's hair was like winter sunlight and her eyes were green like moss.
