" This was an old book by this author that I found on one of my bookshelves. Her newer ones are much better but it was a fun romance novel. "

" Enjoyed this story, the characters and the time period. Quick, easy read. "

" I sort of liked this book, but honestly I just never ... got it. The story felt very convoluted, leaving me with a bunch of, "Huh? Okay, why?" It would have been nice to take these fairly likable characters and transplant them into a better story. "

" I had a hard time getting through this one... "

" I've actually read it before, but that was probably 15 years ago, so here we go again. "
— Jess, 7/10/2012 -
" Jude Deveraux hasn't disappointed me yet. This book was really amusing. I thought the male character Ring was a bit odd but other than that i loved the story. "

" Great book I love all of Jude Deveraux "
— Sherrie, 9/10/2011 -
" Not one of my favorite Deveraux, not compared to Knight in Shining Armor or Wishes or even her Velvet quartet. "
— Arlene, 8/5/2011 -
" Bodice-ripping romance set in the Wild West during the Gold Rush. Romance and adventure and opera... Very fluffy, but if what you want is a nice easy read with a romantic, manly hero and a heroine who isn't completely soppy, Jude Deveraux is spot on. "
— Sarah, 3/19/2011 -
" I like Jude Deveraux's books because they are fast, fun and easy to read with a little drama. I liked Mountain Laurel because of the setting in Colorado. "
