Synopsis

Beloved bestselling author Jude Deveraux follows a savvy young woman into the intriguing heart of a past mystery—and into the arms of a once-in-a-lifetime love.

It was her father's dying wish that Samantha Elliot search for her grandmother, who'd disappeared from Louisville when she was a baby. So here she was in New York City...her parents dead, her divorce final, and she was all alone....

Michael Taggert was Samantha’s landlord—and she was charmed by this handsome, life-loving man. Yet every time Mike tried to get closer to Samantha, he ran into a brick wall. Now, as he helps her unravel her grandmother’s past—and the dangerous truth about a fateful spring night in 1928 and a seductive jazz singer—Mike slowly reawakens the joy and affection Samantha had buried long ago…

I couldn't stand the heroine Samantha. She was so mean. And, some of the things said and their actions were quite silly. I don't think I will read anymore Jude Deveraux books. The only book I read from her was the Mulberry Tree, and even that started to get a bit silly towards the end. I just can't understand what the hero Mike sees in Samantha.

I am going to write the same thing for the Taggart and Montgomery series of Jude Deveraux. First, I can't believe that I read this books because they are so blatantly bodice rippers (not my style at all). And second, and more importantly, I devoured them all! Here is the scoop: We stopped at a frien......more

It was just "ok"! The main character, Samantha, was a bit whiney. Mike however was way too patient with all her shenanigans.......more

Goodreads review by Dimitar on May 19, 2022

3.5 This book was...ok...at times nice, at times a little bit boring. Half of the book passes with interaction between only 2 characters so it became exhausting at one time. The plot could've been a bit thin and more dynamic. The book seemed too long and dragged. The plot, I'm afraid, feels contrived......more
