Jace Montgomery was a stranger in Chandler, Colorado. Tall, proud, and rugged, he would make any woman’s heart beat faster—even shy, sweet Nellie Grayson’s. Nellie, who has always been pleasantly plump, worked tirelessly to help her beautiful younger sister, Terel, to become the belle of the town. But it is Nellie who catches Jace’s eye. For the first time, she is the center of a man’s attention. And with their first kiss, Nellie finds herself falling helplessly, unexpectedly in love.
But with her newfound joy comes the certainty that Jace will, sooner or later, be won over by Terel’s charms. With the help of an enchanting new friend, Nellie discovers that her flirtatious sister might not be the woman for handsome Jace Montgomery after all….

Wishes.,
This review is from: Wishes (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved this book. It made me want to read more of Jude Deveraux's books. I love how she has incorporated names from her other books.
3.0 out of 5 stars
all right, but not the best,
This review is from: Wishes (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm trying to read every possible jude deveraux I can find, and after reading wishes, well...it was somewhat entertaining in parts, and yes, j.d. managed yet again to incorporate unworldly things into the story...plus, the book's about a montgomery, i really don't know why but when i hear the name montgomery, what comes to my mind are strong, handsome men who are perfect...i gotta tell you, its already stuck in my brain..perhaps that's why i like reading her books. Every character has a connection with the other....what i didn't like was how the hero seemed to immediately fall in love with the girl and how she was too blind to see what her family really needs her for? I mean, come one...nobody's that insensitive! And even though it was kind of interesting to put in some hocus pocus in the book, it didn't bode well for me that she lost weight so suddenly...but it's actually a book with a moral. it's not always about the looks, it's the inside that matters...Perfect cliche, but definitely true! It wasn't the best read that I've ever encountered, but i'm not at all sorry that i bought it, even for collection's sake....until now, nothing has topped the Velvet Series and A Knight in Shining Armor for me...

An unusual Romance,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wishes (Mass Market Paperback)
I have read almost everything that Jude Deveraux has written, and have enjoyed all of her books emmensly. However, this is the only romance that I have ever read that does not have the herorine a beautious maiden who is legally underage and fighting off the unwanted attentions of every suitor around. The heroine, Nellie, it a wonderful, compassionate and deeply loyal woman. She is given a gurdian angel in the form of a wealty and cold hearted socialite from a more progressive era, Bennie. Bennie dies somewhat prematurely and is sent to wait in a place called the "kitchen", it here that she discovers that she is neither in heaven nor in hell, she is in limbo. Her assignment while waiting is to help a poor soul in another time, all times run parrallel in the kitchen, Nellie. The problem that Bennie runs into is that Nellie represents everything that she hated in life, an overwieght, poor, and seemingly boring person. While Nellies younger sister Terel seems to be exactly like Bennie had been in life, Bennie simply ignores the older sister and leaves her to fend for herself while she indulges in the strange yet fascinating waitng rooms of the kitchen.
