Romance does not get any more Romantic,
By
This review is from: A Kingdom of Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a delightful, yet at the same time heart-wrenching, story of love, loyalty and betrayal. McNaught will move you to laughter and then to tears and back to laughter again.. smoothly, beautifully and effortlessly. Her mastery of prose is truly splendid.Jennifer Merrick is delightful in every way, even in her fierce misguided loyalty. Royce Westmoreland is the Wolf - Big, ugly, fierce and Jennifer's sworn enemy... she also happens to be his unwilling captive. Of course, she fights him all the way and in every way she knows, but at the same time, she finds herself more and more drawn to him. Not too long after her abduction, Jennifer finds herself wedded to the hateful Wolf and life for the wedded-couple is a series of shocking lows and some highs.. This is one of the all-time Best Historical Novels you are ever likely to read. Buy this book and make sure you clear a special place on your bookshelf for it. This one is for keeps!

Breathless,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Kingdom of Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)
Two years ago, my son's babysitter brought a book to my home to read while my son slept. Yes, it had one of "those" kinds of covers and I asked "how could you read this stuff (romance)?" She picked out a section for me to read and I was hooked! I realized you truly cannot judge a book by its cover. In the past two years I have devoured romances and have found that historicals are by far my favorite. Judith McNaught's writing is magical and this book left me breathless. When Jennifer does the ultimate act of love for her husband by swearing fealty to him in front of thousands and losing her father's "love" in the process, I cried. One of the most beautifully romantic moments I have ever read. I am a very discriminating reader and there are many authors in all genres I will not read. Judith McNaught is the first author I recommend to people to thumb their noses at romance (like yours truly used to) and she and I have made several converts! This book and Whitney, My Love are the first two I recommend. Ms. McNaught is magical and romantic and poignant without being sappy and overly emotional. When you want to close a book with a sigh and a good, warm feeling, read any of her books!

One of the best historical heroines ever written,
This review is from: A Kingdom of Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)
A kingdom of dreams is what every person wishes for Judith McNaught has beautifully translated that wish to paper, A wish to be loved and accepted for what we are. Jennifer Merrick is one of the most beautiful heroines ever written not so much for her fiestiness but for her gentle soul. Her courage and love for her family and later her husband have been brought out so poignantly. Royce might seem like an average historical hero but his overwhelming love for Jenny makes this book a keeper. And just for the loveable Jenny alone This one deserves 5 stars
