This review is from: The Awakening (Mass Market Paperback)

I love Jude Devereax and have read almost every one of herbooks, but this has to be my 2nd favorite (the 1st is of course AKnight in Shining Armor). Why can't there be real men like the Montgomery's? This book is so full of passion and intrigue I refused to put it down.

This review is from: The Awakening (Mass Market Paperback)

Amanda Caulden has lived a sheltered and privileged life on the hop ranch belonging to her father. At 14 a tutor, Taylor Driscoll was brought in by her father to educate her and to tame her. Now at 22, Taylor has become her fiance and he rules her World with an iron rod. He sets her schedule for each day and she must adhere to the schedule which even includes how many minutes she can spend in the bathroom, what she must eat and what she must wear. She knows no different other than her orderly life and until the arrival of Dr Hank Montgmoery, an economics professor and union organizer.

Hank Montgmomery has been requested by the government to surveille the conditons of the workers of Caulden Ranch. Prior to the hop picking season, Hank is invited by Amanda's father to stay on their ranch and Amanda is allocated the task to keep him entertained by going to museums and lectures. Hank is not the stuffy professor that Amanda expected but a handsome young man that likes fast cars, women and the good life but he is also concerned about the welfare of the poor workers who have a tough life. Slowly Hank awakens Amanda to a life of other than books and lectures. He takes her dancing, to restaurants, moonlight trysts and the movie theatre. Later he also opens her eyes up to the plight of the poor migrant workers. They both fall for each other but can Hank persuade Amanda away from her safe orderly life in the arms of her cold tutor and fiance, Taylor?

This was such a wonderful book. Hank was so charming and such a gentleman, as with many of Jude Deveraux's heros. It was funny to read Amanda keeping to her strict schedule and then breaking free from it. The love story was beautiful as you could see both protagonists trying hard not to fall for each other but they cannot prevent the inevitable. A thoroughly good read indeed. I'll have to search for more Jude Deveraux books I have yet to read.

5.0�toiles sur 5 Great Romance, Jui 10 2004

Par	Melissa McCauley (North Little Rock, AR) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Awakening (Mass Market Paperback)

The Awakening is my second-favorite Jude Devereaux novel (after The Princess). Smart, touching and very funny characters in a quasi-'The Taming of the Shrew' story. But Amanda Caulden is no shrew, just impossibly isolated and ignorant of the outside world. Leave it to a Montgomery man to shake up her world and wake her up. Great Reading.

4.0�toiles sur 5 Great writing, even if it was a bit heavy-handed
I enjoyed this book mostly for Ms. Deveraux's writing style. The setting was wonderful and I thought the story was well-paced. The characters were well-developed. Read more
