Summary: I absolutely loved this book.
Review: I absolutely loved this book because it was exciting, adventurous, and I could not put it down. Christina, the main character, is always trying to investigate things and is always getting herself in trouble. Tynan, is the man who's never had a chance in life and has a bad name, but always comes to Christiana's rescue. I loved the independent braveness of Christina. I wish I could be more head-strong and independent like her. I would definately recommend this book to everyone. It is one of the best books I've ever read.

Summary: disappointing
Review: I found the story somewhat boring. Having two men in practically every scene, I found distracting. It seemed forced. Not nearly as enjoyable as some of her other books.This is one to skip.

Summary: Not as good as her other books...
Review: I have read about half of Jude Deveraux's books now - she is the only romance author I have read and I love her complex and touching plots - but have to admit that this one just doesn't compete with the others. It was okay, but the story didn't click in various areas: romance was questionable, intricacies of the plot were sometimes confusing and inconsistent, and the end was downright perplexing. How can a lady marry a man who doesn't even look at her at the altar much less stand next to her??!!!

Summary: disappointing
Review: I have to say that when I first began to read this book, I almost immediately took a dislike to it. I am so used to the usual way that Jude writes and this was not it. Tynan and Chris have this amazing heat when he abducts her. She almost seems to enjoy his touching and caressing... That just doesn't seem realistic to me. During an abduction fear or terror would be more seemly. The characters sometimes didn't seem real and there was really not too much romance in the book. I never sensed true sexual tension between them or much love either. It had a good story plot though where action is concerned. It was a quick and easy read and I did like the ending. I'm a huge fan of Jude Deveraux's and I have never rated her below a 4... but this book really is more of a 3 to me. For classic Jude, check out her other books first such as The Princess, The Conquest, Knight in Shining Armor, etc. This one might discourage you from reading more of her.

Summary: A fun-filled adventurous romance
Review: I really enjoyed this book. This story was more light-hearted than other Jude Deveraux books, but that's how some of her stories are. Some are more emotional than others. I actually laughed out loud several times while reading this book. I really like Tynan, being the "tortured hero" that he is. He was really focused on changing his life, and not falling back into the bad habits and wild lifestyle he'd once led. How could he do that if he defied Christiana's father? This just proved to be an obstacle that made the story what it is. What's a good romance read without obstacles? Christiana was an admirable heroine, she had a lot of spirit, and she was able to overstep the boundaries of what was deemed as socially acceptable for women of her time. Some say this story was not believable. To me, most historical romances are not believable and are totally out of the ordinary. That's why I enjoy historical romances better than contemporaries.
Rating:
Summary: A western that would make a great movie.
Review: It was hard to get a picture of the character's in your mind. Although I liked the story, I really enjoy reading Deveraux historical novels instead. It has a very grabbing beginning and it has a very weak ending. I liked Tynan but I found it hard to love him, like I do with the rest of Deveraux's Men.
Rating:
Summary: One of her best.
Review: Jude is a fantasic author, all of her fans know it. This was one of her best, I must say. Not the typical book she writes, but had a little depth to it, some kind of a plot involved. Its not as good as some of the others, but not as bad either. You'll like it.
Rating: 
Summary: Big Disappointment
Review: Not at all up to par of Jude Devereaux's other books. I had wished she would write more books with a Montgomery woman as the protagonist, but this is definitely not it. Just plain bad, with shallow characters, and none of the humor that I love in her other books
