Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book to read
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. Even though it is unrealistic, you feel that you are living the fantasy. A must have.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Shape-shifting, hokey-pokey is not my thing.
Review: I discovered Nora Roberts about four months ago and I've read more than ten of her books including all the McGregor series as well as the "Born in..." series. I truly enjoyed all of them and have reread some of them already. However, I must say I am very disappointed in "Enchanted" and I can't seem to get beyond page 100. I find Liam's shape-shifting and teleporting a little creepy. All I can say is that I am glad I read all her other novels before I picked this one up or I would never have found out what a marvelous story teller she is. Well even the great ones do lay an egg once in a while.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: UUUUGGGHHHH!!!!!
Review: WHY Nora WHY!! Around here you are the Queen. People threaten me with bodily harm for my series books (I have all of them)So when I found out about this book I was thrilled I could not wait to get it. However when I read it, it was like eating a piece of my favorite chocolate cake and biting on a huge egg shell. ouch!! and that is how I felt while reading this book. Ouch!! Liam was one creepy human being.(or wolf whatever he was)Not that it would happen but if I ever found out the man that I loved had watched me while I was taking a bath. I'd smack the little voyuer. Oh well I guess I'll grab my copy of Night Shift and remember that everyone has a bad day.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Major Disappointment
Review: I loved the original trilogy. The leads were strong, compelling, smart and honorable.

Rowan and Liam are not. Rowan is spineless, Liam is a jerk. Why Rowan didn't feel violated when she learned Liam had been spying on her in his wolf form or creeping into her dreams to have sex with her is beyond me.

I was expecting much much more.

I hope next time Roberts allows her characters integrity. I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel with Jessie from _Charmed_. Only if it was done well, otherwise leave well enough alone.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Same old Same Old, but undeniably creep!!!
Review: Nora seems to be running out of ideas so she resorts to writing of the supernatural. Quite frankly the idea of a man turning into a wolf and then sleeping on the bed and watching the heroine take a bath is just plain creepy. The books was most assuredly not her best.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Needs Some Work
Review: Its great to see Nora return to the realm of Paranormal romance. Unfortunately, this novel was a bit weak, even for her.

Numerous problem areas beset this latest edition to the Donovon Legacy. Weak plots. Characters use magick in fantastic ways without mortal limits almost to the point of ridiculousness.

Her heroine Rowan was bland, easily led and had poor self esteem. About the only thing interesting about Rowan was her name. Even her inner dialog was a touch dull. I was mildly irritated that in order to get some measure of self esteem she had to learn to use magick. (I don't have a problem with magick, but I do think its a poor substitute for normal self empowerment).

Liam embodies 'dark brooding alpha' and spends a lot of time brooding about. Even when visiting his cousins he seems a touch on the cold side. Also his powers were a bit overblown. (Teleporting them both to Monterey etc., without even sweat on his brow) I would like to have seen Liam a little less self absorbed and controlling or at least have Liam pitted with a more feisty heroine who could stand up to him when he starts getting overbearing and domineering.

Overall, a two star rating for a book of Nora's is a four star rating for anyone else's. While well worth reading, this one was not quite up to her usual standard

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ridiculous premise
Review: Hello...the hero was a wolf??? Why didn't anyone else find this stupid? I literally could not read this book and threw it in the trash where it belongs.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best of the Donovans( So Far)!!!
Review: I love the trilogy, so when I read this I was even more surprised how much I loved it. Even better than the first ones. Can't wait! More Donovans, please, Nora!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I think this was the best of the Donovan books.
Review: I loved Liam and Rowan. They were so real, and what they were feeling was so vivid. The story line was great, but it's a Nora Roberts book so of course it was going to be great. Don't listen to people who didn't like this book, they probably can't read anyway. Read it for yourself and make your own opinion. I know you'll love it as much as I did.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great read lived up to the other 3
Review: I didn't think Ms Roberts could add to the magic of the Donovanclan but she did by adding a little twist to the storyby having notonly a Donovan with magical ties but also the one who they yearn for have a little magic Enjoyed it ! Give us more
