Rating: Summary: What a great time Review: I loved the book. It was a great read, fast, funny and full of what I love about Donna Kauffman. I enjoyed meeting all the characters and especially loved watching how Sebastien worked them all. The paranormal aspects were fun and inspired. The scene where Sebastien faces the woman that cursed him to his life as a genie was one of my favorites. Where else can you get so much fun packed into one book. Thanks for the great time.
Rating: Summary: A good find Review: I picked this book up on a whim and I am really glad I did. Donna Kauffman creates a believable story that blends both contemporary life and magical ideas. She brings you into the lives of all the characters, giving them all unique qualities. The relationship between Sebastien Valentin and Jamie Sullivan grows from skepticism, on Jamie's part, to trust and then friendship and love. I look foward to reading more from this author.
Rating: Summary: Five Stars! Review: One of my favorite books this year! Donna Kauffman is always a must buy for me, and she didn't disappoint on this grand love story. I devoured it in one special afternoon. Don't miss it.
Rating: Summary: I wish it was Ree Ann and Angelo's story, though.... Review: The reason I gave this 4 stars is because I find the story too long in some parts and too short in others!!The story is great, actually. Sebastien is a wonderful, sexy hero. I love the touch of French he has, the French accent, and gallantry. The plots unfolds naturally, as if the reader is actually witnessing the scenes. However, I find the 'unfolding' of the scenes of Jamie and Sebastien rather tooooo long. In the beginning it was okay, but after a while, it gets stuffy. Now, what I found very lacking is the description of the scenes of Ree Ann and Angelo. When Sebastien tried matchmaking Ree Ann and Angelo, I found myself skipping pages, just to see how these two will turn out. I savor the few pages of Ree Ann and Angelo, coz THEIR part of the story seems more intriguing and flushed with sexual tension. It is wonderful how two enemies became lovers in the end. I do not like how the story ends, with the voodoo priestess suddenly being summoned to free Sebastien from the 'curse'. It looks rather 'off'.
Rating: Summary: Good, light, fairy-tale romance Review: This is a cute, light-hearted, enjoyable fairy-tale romance. Both the lead characters were likable & intelligent souls - that's always a biggy in my opinion. The secondary characters added a good sub-plot. Not the most memorable of books, but good none the less.

Rating: Summary: Different! Review: This is the first book I've read by this author and I'll be looking for more. While it isn't "great literature" it sure was fun to read, and that's saying a lot. I thoroughly enjoyed Sabastian and the three female characters. Certainly hope there will be more of this kind of work in the future. I would heartily recommend this for an enjoyable time to escape the world around us. Thanks to the author!!
