I loved this book, it was my first time reading anything by this author and now I'm anxious to read more in this series. It was so funny, and the mystery was good, and I loved how most of the story took place in the wilds of Florida seeing as I'm a Florida girl and have lived in the boonies for the most part of my life. The interaction between the hero and heroine made me swoon. I just loved them. A really good historical romance. :)

This book was OK, but not one of her best. I had a hard time getting into the story as it involved a lot of running away in the beginning. The characters weren't developed enough for me to really care about the outcome. Also portions of the story were rather difficult to believe and not very realistic. Jude Deveraux is really a much better author than this book would lead you to believe. It almost seems as though she just rushed through it to throw a story together quickly.

This was a good, relaxing read. Not totally predictable and interesting enough to keep me reading.

Good book but not her best. I loved the hero and heroine and their interaction. But I felt like some of the story was glossed over and unbelievable. The whole investigation into the hero's innocence and the process of proving it was done outside of the story and told after the fact. The last 50 pages were so rushed I was glad when it finally ended.

Another great historical novel! I love the way she has one modern story then she ties it up with a historical next. It ties everything up so neatly!

Jude Deveraux is my favorite author. The whole adventure into uncharted Florida was fascinating! Her character development and humor is wonderful. I can't wait for the stories of Cay's brothers!
