Another wonderful book by Jude Deveraux. I always love every word she writes. The time travel and reincarnation theme going on in the book was very interesting and I loved every part where they were in the 1800s. I am very happy that this book had Lanconians in it as I have loved every other book where Jude Deveraux has written about the royal Lanconian family (The Maiden and The Princess). I really hope she writes some more Lanconia books in the future. The Nantucket setting is just as wonderful in the book as it was in True Love and I loved reading all the continuations on the side characters stories from the first book. Graydon and Toby were both wonderful characters and I really loved their story and all the bumps and travels along the way to their happy ending. I also enjoyed the inclusion of Millie in the end. Next book on my "to buy" list is Ever After and I am looking forward to reading a Taggert story again. :D

I loved Toby and Graydon and their story. I caught myself chuckling a few times, which always means I'm enjoying myself. I loved Toby's character, she reminds me a lot of myself. The bit of the twist at the end made me grin with glee.

Different ... little bit romance, little bit ghost story/time travel. Sometimes felt like it was hard to keep characters straight in my head, but maybe that was just because it took me forever to read it.

Super cute story takes place on Nantucket Island with the perfect balance of love, quirkiness, responsibility, surprise, magic, flair and romance. Jude Deveraux's token Taggert, Montgomery, and Lanconia characters are all in play.

I have such a hard time with Deveraux's time traveling books. They are just not as good as her other books. And this one was no different.
Graydon is in town to watch his cousin get married. At least, that's why he's supposed to be in town. As the heir apparent to the Lanconian throne, he is most certainly not supposed to be ogling bridesmaid Toby. And yet... there's a draw. One more powerful than his mother's disapproval and even overriding his good sense to remember that he's supposed to be engaged. But he and Toby have a history. A long history. One that they're willing to go back time to make sure that at least one version of themselves can end in true love...
Oh. My. God. The push-me-pull-you lasted the whole damn book. No seriously. It only got resolved in the last... twenty pages? I mean, good God. Yes, most books have issues like this but the couple at least tries to do something. Not just sit around with an, "Oh woe is me" attitude the Entire. Freaking. Time.

I got confused and bored in the middle of it but the end was fun and redeemed the book which is the reason I gave it three stars instead of two. She is one of my go-to authors I've read since childhood.

I read the first book in this series waaaayyy back so the details were fuzzy but they came back fairly quickly. I remember enjoying the first book and the second was no different. I'm a sucker for a cute love story and when there's even the slightest magical element, I'm completely sold! And unlike a lot of typical romances, this one actually kept me guessing throughout. This was a pure guilty pleasure read for me and I absolutely loved it!
