Summary: Well, she did it again.
Review: I was so looking forward to this book. I can honestly say Jude Deveraux is my favorite writer. Her woman are strong and her men are handsome and stubborn, all that is needed for terrific setting. Temptation was good, but not great like Knight and Shinning Armor. Temperance (the main character) was funny and adventurous, while James was handsome and a bit to stubborn for own good. The book was a great ride! If your a Jude Deveraux fan, you definitely have to buy it. The only problem is the ending, it ended in about three pages after an awesome adventure. It left me feeling like there should be more closure with the two main characters. Oh well, i still can't wait till the next one!!

Summary: Jude's Temptation is Irresistible!
Review: Booklist is quoted as saying Jude's latest "Temptation" is "typically formulaic but nonetheless satisfying story..." When I read "typically formulaic," I worried it really meant, "boring." After reading Temptation, I think a more apt description would have been --classic Jude Devereaux! Her latest novel is a wonderful, rich historical romance that is sure to please. Her characters walk out of the book and in to your head. I wanted to kick Agnus, shake hands with Temperance, and jump James (what woman wouldn't want to?). Like many others, I'm enjoying the latest outpouring of romantic suspense novels. However, it seems like that's all the popular authors are writing these days. I enjoy reading them, but I also like having a romance to turn to that's not filled with twisted minds, blood, horror, and hate. Personally, I'm glad there are still talented and popular authors willing to write the classic romance. Thank you Jude for your latest "temptation!"

Summary: She is the grand dame of romance
Review: When her father died fifteen years ago, then teenager Temperance O'Neil learned how society mistreated women due to their codependency on men. Now in 1909, Temperance has become a major figure in the women's rights movement. However, her life changes when her mother marries Scotsman Angus McCairn. Her stepfather demands Temperance accompanies them back to Edinburgh until he finds her a husband. Angus forces Temperance's agreement by threatening to cut off her funds and tossing her out of her home. Six months later, Angus understands what his wife meant by watching out for an agreeable Temperance, who has caused trouble in the Highlands. He offers her a deal. If she can find his nephew a wife while acting as a housekeeper to the barbaric James, Angus will support her return across the Atlantic. As she tries to teach the beast how to cherish a woman, Temperance and James fall in love. However, she ultimately realizes he will never want a wife, especially a modern day woman like Temperance. TEMPTATION is an exciting historical romance that centers on the early twentieth century women's rights movement. The story line is filled with excitement, action, and insight into the plight of females. Temperance is a fine lead player and James acts more like an injured beast. The support cast augments the tale by vividly bringing to life the role of men and women in the United States in 1909. Jude Deveraux provides sub-genre fans with a non-stop thriller Harriet Klausner

Summary: TEMPTATION ..to throw it out in the trash..
Review: My first Jude Deveraux was A Knight in Shining Armor, and I loved it. Then comes The Mulberry Tree, and thought the story had a great plot. Temptation, however, was a disaster. I found the heroine to be an obnoxious brat, and the hero completely shallow. After reading a third of the book, no solid story plot could be found. Its hard to even continue with the story without finding the heroine annoying and irritating. This book has definately tainted me from reading anymore Jude Deveraux books.

Summary: Temptation by Jude Deveraux
Review: PUBLISHER: Simon & Schuster Do you like a good romance? How about a Scottish brogue or maybe a woman ahead of her time? With Temptation, you will get all three. Temperance O'Neil is a young woman who believes women need a way to provide for themselves rather than relying on a man. Unfortunately, her mother remarries Angus McCairn who believes women need to be taken care of and provided for by a man. To make things worse, this man expects Temperance and her mother to go with him to live in Scotland. After resettling in Scotland, Temperance becomes the model daughter and drives Angus crazy with her do-good works. To get her out of his house, Angus makes a deal with her - become a housekeeper to his nephew, James, and find him a wife. If she does so, Angus will allow her to return to New York and continue her work with under privileged women. The tale that follows is only one that Jude Deveraux can tell and she tells it very well. Don't miss this tale of romance and history. It is a story you won't want to put down until the very last word is read. I rated this book as a 10.

Summary: TEMPTATION ..to throw it out in the trash..
Review: I was beginning to think Jude Devereaux didn't have a good, funny romances left in her. But ta-da, here is Temptation, a return to the "old" style of romance and humor I loved. Sharp, believable characters. Why can't she write more like this instead of the supernatural crap she's trying to put out nowadays?

Summary: Cute Whimsical Read!
Review: Temptation is a light and fun easy read! I enjoyed this silly farfetched story that is typical of Jude's imagination. Temptation is one of approximately 25 books in the Montgomery and Taggert series

Summary: Great Storytelling
Review: This is the first Jude Deveraux novel I have read and I must say I loved every bit of it. Many parts will put a smile on your face and some parts may even cause you to let out a giggle. What suprised me the most is that this book does not have a classic ending, which I really enjoyed. The ending has a unique twist to it but still brings adequate closure to the story of Temperance and the McCairn.
