Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Smoldering love and passion - some unforgetable scenes
Review: I loved this book. The culmination of love between the hero and heroine is fanatastic. I re-read excerpts after reading it, and regreted having to return my copy to the library. One of my all time favorite love stories.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Just Plain Awful
Review: To make this short and sweet: I hated Once And Always. The hero was just plain mean and paranoid, the heroine was practically groveling at the hero's feet for affection and there were too many misunderstandings based on the stupidest things. I agreed with one particular reviewer, the only character who was likeable was the heroine's ex-fiance, and he got tossed aside for the cruel, emotionally screwed up hero.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another winner!
Review: Once and Always is a book with many twists and turns and more importantly a book with characters that a person can relate to.

Victoria Seaton is an American, orphaned and alone with only her sister. She soon finds that she has realitives in England that are willing to take her and her sister in but the sisters are seperated. Victoria, has to adjust to a new country with new rules and did I mention she's almost betrothed?

Jason Fielding is the bastard son of the Duke of Atheron, Victoria's cousin who is masquerading as the Duke's nephew. He is cold and cynical of life and most of all woman. To him there is only one use of a woman and then after that they're no longer of value.

However, there are two matchmakers at work and both seem to be at odds with each other. The Duke of Artheron is determined to pull the greatest match of the year but the Dowager Duchess of Clairemont, Victoria's grandmother has the same intentions but with Tory's sister Dorthy.

From the moment Jason and Victory meet, sparks fly and tensions are high. Can these two really walk away from each other with the mechanics of the matchmaking Duke of Atheron looking over their shoulders?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just Great!
Review: I've read this book so many times that I've lost count. You'd think by now, I would be bored reading the same lines over and over again...Well, it's not the case! Sure,I know what is going to happen but I still get that sinking feeling whenever I read some sad part, I can't help smiling over Victoria and Jason's definitely stormy exchanges. I Love the characters, I love the plot, I just plain love this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply the best.
Review: I love Judith McNaught. Who doesn't? I enjoyed every copy of her books except some lousy holiday special.

For years I've read quite many romance books, so I get used their plots and characters. But still I find myself enjoying this book over and over again. Ice cold, strong hero who deeply wounded in youth meets lovely girl and the story goes on... It looks so simply, but not McNaught's book is. It's not such a stupid " love in a first sight " book. Wonderfully constructed plot , breathtakingly attractive hero, cheerfully witty heroin, it has all. I just have to say it is simply the best.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: What a gentleman! Sweet, lovely story...
Review: This novel was really breathtaking. I love the way Tory (the heroine) was determined to make Jason happy. She certainly wasn't the typical heroine we always read about. Throughout the story, it was so sweet how Jason slowly opened up to her. What can i say but he's very sweet and "gentle". I gave it a four star because I thought a certain "key" character's presence in one of the scene was very short. It left me saying, "That's it?" It didn't bother me THAT much but I also thought the ending was quite rushed. It could've atleast filled up one more page ..then I would've given it a happy full thumbs up! But in any case, it was a lovely lovely story!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite author - Judith McNaught
Review: I think that Judith McNaught is a wonderful author and I have enjoyed all of her books. While I was at the bookstore yesterday I was disappointed because she did not have any new books out. Judith McNaught is funny and she will keep you on the edge of your seat. "Paradise" and "Whitney My Love" are still my favorites, but I can't wait until the new one comes out! I started reading these novels and was hooked, and now both of my sisters are hooked also.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Weak
Review: I thoguht the characters in this story were very WEAK. Especially the heroin Victoria. The only character I thought was the least bit likeable was the one that was treated the worst, barely made an appearance, and got completely shattered in the end. Andrew, Victoria's friend from childhood and a man she thought she would marry before she became an orphan. I thought the deception that her dear "uncle Charles" pulled on her was heinous, and was shocked that the heiroin would forgive him so fast for messing with her life to the extent that he did. She dropped Andrew like a bad habit with out so much as a glance back! Andrew seemed like he was the sweet good guy that could not hurt her. Jason repeatedly hurt her feelings (the scenes with the mistress were repulsive) and she was to weak to stand up to him and too weak to see that "uncle" Charles lied to her to get what he wanted. Not worth reading.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: McNaught does it again!
Review: My mother and I both read Judith McNaught's books, and we love all of them! Once And Always, set in England, is one of her better ones. We start with Jason, the rich man whose heart has been broken by the death of his son and the scorn of his dead wife, who had run away to be with her lover, taking their son with her. Then, Jason's new wife Victoria enters the picture. Scared and confused, she runs from his touch but earns his desire, unintentionally, and then intentionally, making him want her. With good character plotting, scenes that made me cry, and some good humor, Once and Always is a book I would recommend to anyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LOVED ONCE AND ALWAYS!
Review: This was a fantastic book! When I first bought it I put in on my bookshelf to read it later, well, that later turned out to be about 5 months later. I picked it up yesterday because I was bored I needed something to read. This book totally took me by surprise! Once I started reading I HATED to put it down. The characters are IMPOSSIBLE to not love. I'm not going to explain what this book is about because the other reviews do a great job at that, but I am going to say this: I loved the parts of this book are when the servents are gossiping about their lord and lady's relationship (when jason SPECIFICALLY forbid them to do any gossiping what-so-ever) It is hillarious listening to them whisper to one another, then have a maid hear, and tell another maid and then it reaches the grooms and so on. I laughed my head off listening to them! Oh, and might I add that besides the servents, Tory's great-grandmother was great! (and don't you dare call her otherwise!) Now, I know she seems like an old hag at the beginning, but you're going to love her at the end, I promise! Once and Always was beautifully written and I loved ever second I spent on this book. You're crazy to let this one slip through your fingers!
