I was very pleased with this book. Carolina Isles was a disapointment. This one was a joy that I couldn't put down. The heroine was flawed, but strong. I totally got into the two men fighting over her and I could see way they would. The suspence about the murders and the house were intriguing and kept me on the edge of my seat. I did not figure this one out until it was over. Well worth my time.

I found the premise of the book to be rather intreging, but the actuall book left me with more questions than answers and left me confused.

I have read some of Jude Deveraux's other work and I was disappointed with this one. The mystery I felt was really interesting, but the conclusion left me puzzeled and I felt that it could have been written better. Also except for Eden the characters where not as fleshed out leaving questions about their past through to the end of the book and are never really concluded.

I did not care for this book, I found it boring and not well written.

What happened to this great storyteller?

She is still a good writer, but there is no story. Since the plot is outlined elsewhere, I will detail my problems with it herewith.

I was not engaged by the heroine, Eden, I strongly disliked Melissa, Eden's daughter, and never felt I got to REALLY know either of her suitors. This plot drags and stumbles and leaves the reader asking more questions than are answered! Who in their right mind would NOT dig up the buried treasure, WHO? Then the silent hero finally comes to her, after waiting a year and six weeks, why bother!

Waste of my time, Montgomery Hunk or no.
