I don't read romance but since I am a Hooper fan I read this. This was a very relaxing book and not as boring as most romance novels. There were the cliches' like walking on beaches and candelight dinners but the two main characters are so darn witty I enjoyed the banter and couldn't wait for more. This is a book that's perfect for a one day read ( if you start early ). I guarantee if you're stressed out, reading On Wings of Magic will get you through the day.

Obviously the person before me only ever read her new suspence books, which are also really good. If you have read any of her books written earlier in her carrer (80s) you would know that they are full of cliches and alpha males and are still wonderful. I loved this book and I have read it countless times. What I love about most of her books, but especially her older ones, are her alpha males. So if you are not into them you won't like them.

While I loved the romantic interludes I was put off by the incredible beauty ALWAYS wearing extremely scanty clothing and terrifically handsome alpha male (not that that is too bad) but it was too predictable. Still it was a good steamy romance story and entertaining to read for Kay Hooper fans. I loved reading Kay Hooper's stories when I first read "Haunting Rachel". Was not disappointed reading this story but found it dated. I liked this story better than the Shadow series, which had less romantic interest but still good suspense. If you like this story, I recommend reading: "Finding Laura", "After Caroline", "Amanda", and "Haunting Rachel". I recommend these books highly to all Kay Hooper fans! A MUST read.

I got this book because it seemed to look interesting, and I was right. I couldn't put it down, and read it in one sitting! Kay Hooper is a great author, and as you go through the story, she lets you know things that you already suspected to be true. This was the first book of hers that I have read, but I'll be sure to read more of her books!

Kay Hooper writes romance on a light-hearted and whimsical note. Her characters may have deep issues that they are dealing with but the overall tone is uplifting.

On Wings of Magic has a heroine running from the things she has experienced while traveling the world with her father. She uses the classic helpless blonde stereotype to keep people at an emotional distance so she doesn't get hurt again. Hawke knows he wants Kendall for his own as soon as he sets eyes on her and immediately sets out to prove to her that her emotions are safe with him.

In classic Hooper style there is a cat to provide some comic relief, romance that lets you know what's happening without going into details and lots of fun conversation between the lovers.

This was nothing like any of the other Kay Hooper books -- and I've read and loved them all. This was awful. I almost suspected someone else wrote it and put her name to it. It was chock full of clichés about incredibly beautiful women and ruggedly handsome men. Yuck! I kept reading, hoping it would improve, but it never did. Don't fall for it like I did.

a little too much romance for it to be even slightly realistic, but I read it and passed it on to my sister who LOVES that kind of story

This book rocks my unicorn necklace world. I wish I could live on Hawke Island. It is a must read for everyone.

This book was boring. It took forever to read it.
