This is one of my ALL TIME favorite books. I laughed, I cried and I have had to buy it 3 times cause I read it to death lol.
From the moment i picked it up, 'whitney, my love' was hard to put down, I even spent most of the night up readin it saying one more chapter and then going to bed.
A story of obsession, devotion, hatered, distrust and love all roled into one. This is the story of Clayton Westmoreland and Whitney Stone. From the moment Clayton met Whitney, he was drawn to her, and she had nothing but contempt for him. She arrives home to england to home, father and and unknown of betothel.
In this book it is a battle of wills between Clayton and Whitney, neither wanting to give in to the other, and yet both loving eachother (albeit more than they would like to admit). Overall, this was an excelllent read, and one of McNaughts finest that I have read.

Very good story! I loved it!
Whitney Stone's teenage crush on a neighbor has her cold, unfeeling father banishing her to Paris into the care of her aunt and uncle. Under their loving guidance, the young woman blossoms into a ravishing beauty and becomes the darling of glittering Parisian society--a fact not lost on the handsome and equally powerful Duke of Claymore, who determines to make her his wife. Despite the duke's fervent interest, Whitney remains fixed on her childhood love. That is, until she finds herself tempted by the Duke--an attraction that both delights and baffles Whitney, causing her to be increasingly wary of what her heart may lead her to do. The Duke suffers no such confusion. He wants Whitney. And he plans to have her, despite a number of obstacles, including the infatuation Whitney seems to have for another; her aunt's growing concerns; and her greedy father's bungling efforts to control his beautiful daughter. But before the Duke and Whitney's plans can reach fruition, they'll have to work their way through a morass of misunderstandings that threaten any hope of a happy ending.

One of my all time favotite reads!
One of my two favorite Mcnaughts and this one is with her rewritten longer ending that goes into greater detail. If you haven't read it with this ending....you haven't read it. This one is a MUST READ!!
LOVED this book!! My first Judith McNaught read, and I was not disappointed!! You have GOT to read this one!
one of my favorites!!! great characters and plot
i totally fell in love with this story! the perfect love story!
This book remains my favorite book of all time, and I have been reading for 65 years now!
Received this book from the library after the summer reading program and I just cannot turn down free books. These books really irk me though. As a romance goes, the writing was pretty good. The characters were well developed. I just get so tired of the seduction theme. The lady can never make up her own mind because she is overwhelmed with passion for the seducer. I call this lust and it is debase. I don't like the manipulation that goes on between the lovers and I should have just stopped reading. I suppose a simple love story like most couples out in the world would be boring. No, this genre needs crazy drama and overwrought plot lines.
