This Book Introduced Me To Jude

While at the beach, I read this from my hostess's library collection. This book got me hooked on Jude Deveraux.

Kane & Houston are adorable!

TWIN OF ICE is one of my all-time favorite books written by Jude Deveraux. I find myself picking it up anytime I want to smile. Kane is not your typical hero (but none of Jude's heroes are typical, are they?). He is extremely wealthy with the manners of a pig. But Houston makes him appear to be the great man he is inside. And in return Kane brings out the fun-loving, spirited woman who is thought to be an ice princess by others. The dialogue is hilariious and spirited. Overall, it is defintely a keeper.

Another Jude pleaser!

I picked up this book on a whim, and once again was swept away into Jude Deveraux's world of magical romance. I LOVED Kane Taggert. He was a really original hero. I loved how he needed her, but he could be bossy and dominating at the same time. And what girl wouldn't love a man who has millions but doesn't know how to "spend money" and has nice muscular arms as well? Oh--I love Kane so much that I forgot to mention Houston: she's great too.

TWIN OF ICE IS MY ALL-TIME FAVOURITE

I must have read Twin of Ice about 3 times now and I just love Houston & Kane. Their chemistry was superb and characters so real, although less-than-perfect. I love the scene when they first met in a shop where some ladies were passing nasty remarks about Kane and Houston just told them off in such a classic way! Although people think that Houston made a big mistake by agreeing to marry Kane, the match was actually very good when you think about it. She was able to put all her training to good use by running his household! Best thing is underneath her cool exterior, she was one hot lady indeed! And to think that she could actually have married that boring Leander who couldn't even distinguish between her and her twin Blair. Twin of Fire, by comparison pales against this first book. Somehow I was not able to feel for Blair & Lee the way I felt for Houston & Kane. After reading the fiasco between Blair & Lee in Twin of Ice, I just felt that Lee must be the goonest man alive not to be able to tell the twins apart. And Blair actually slept with her sister's fiance! Try as I did to think that her passion is romantic, I couldn't. You should read Twin of Fire for completeness but for me, I could not remember the story. Conclusion? Twin of Ice is worth a read over and over again and fans of Jude Deveraux should not miss it!

The best Deveraux I've ever read!

I believe if you read any Jude Deveraux book, it should be this one. It is extremely funny, and the romance is top rate. Wishes is also a great Deveraux book set in the same time and town.
