Totally amazing!

I can't believe Jude Deveraux. She is one of my top authors, and everytime that I read one of her books, I am amazed once again at the sheer genius of her writing power. It is impossible to read one of her books without being involved in it and moved. _The Enchanted Land_ is no exception, and I am once more awed by the power of her skills.Morgan Wakefeild's got a problem. Her rich father, whom is recently deceased has left everything from his life to her... on one condition. She has to marry a man and live in New Mexico for a year to inherit it all. This is big trouble for Morgan because, ever since she was one years old, she lived with her mother in a house with little contact to the outside world. When her mother died, Morgan went to her uncle to live. Morgan's uncle was a very greedy man, and when he heard about the will, he figures that if Morgan doesn't marry, he will get the money. So, he hides her beauty beneath baggy clothes and keeps her hidden from society.At one of Morgan's rare outings, a couple days before a prolonged trip to Europe, Morgan hears a group of two women talking about Seth Coulter. He's got a ranch in New Mexico. This seems an answer to Morgan's prayers. She aproaches Seth and offers him twenty five thousand dollars to marry her. Seth is amused and attracted to this strange little girl and decides to accept her offer. The two journey on to New Mexico.A love blossoms between these two amidst the backdrop of an enchanted land. But, fate seems to feel that they must fight for their love, so it interveens. Jealousy, lies, and fate makes them enemies. Can destiny and love prevail?_The Enchanted Land_ is a must read for any reader who enjoys reading about the American frontier. I always love a break from the lords and ladies of England. Sure, America isn't always the most origional, but I still love it as do many other readers. Jude Deveraux has a funny way of filling her books full of historical detail without taking away the enjoyment and romance factors. Morgan was a lovely heroine. I loved the fact that she was beautiful, but it's not rubbed into the reader's face. It's more of a decision that the reader has to make for herself. Seth was the guy that you want to punch. I've got to agree with another reader that Jude's style in this book was very similar to Judith McNaught's. Seth was the man that you want to scream at so he can get over his blindness. I loved him, though. And he does make up for his blindness. New Mexico was such an interesting setting, and Jude Deveraux makes it come alive for the reader. I could feel the heat, and I was caught up in the world she wrote for us. A word of caution out there for people, though. There is a bit of seperation that the hero and heroine go through. And, there is a guy who tries to get Morgan's heart that isn't Seth. But, it's still an awesom book, and I loved it completely.If you liked this book, let me recomend some more. _Whitney, My Love_ and

THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!

This was my all time favorite book! It was sooooooooooooooooo good. I've easily read it 5 times. I can't put it down. I luv what goes on between Seth and Morgan. . I luv Seth's possesiveness towards Morgan and his distaste towards frilly,flirty girls and his forwardness then his sudden stop, well you have to read it. Morgan and Seth soo belong together. This is my favorite book of all time even over-ruling my favorite "The Reef" by Nora Roberts . . want a good book? Read this book or "The Reef".

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW!!!

This book was truly a great and challenging love story. It just goes to show that you just don't fall out of love with someone, when it is true love. I think this is one of the greats. I couldn't put it down. (I read it on my day off)

For lack of a better word ....WOW !

This book is simply AMAZING! It's filled with humour,action and steamy romance..it's superb ! I highly recommend this book to everyone out there! You're missing out on a lot if u haven't picked this one up yet!..The only bad thing about it (if u consider this being a 'bad thing') is that I compare every single book i read to this one and they never add up ! You don't get as good as this..honestly..you HAVE TO try it. You will not be disappointed at all !! trust me.

An enchanting book!

I read this book and I love it very much. It is a great story and I think that this is one of her best books. I 've read a couple of other reviews, and a lot of people didn't like the whole fact the Seth and Morgan was seperated, but I thought their seperation was what made the book so great.
