Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com It's been three years since his fiancée's mysterious suicide, and Jace Montgomery still hungers for answers. Stacy was kind, funny, and in love -- why, on a trip to England, would she end her life in a room above a village pub? Then Jace stumbles upon a photo of a rambling estate tucked inside one of Stacy's books -- and a cryptic note dated one day before her death: "Ours again. Together forever. See you there...."Drawing on his family's vast wealth, Jace returns to England to purchase the unsightly Priory House -- and soon discovers it is haunted by the headstrong ghost of Ann Stuart. Unraveling the ties between past and present with the help of a beautiful local journalist, Jace must at last reconcile his heartwrenching loss and his own hopeful future. a bit strange and not disappointing, but not her worst | Customer Rating: | I read this book in a few hours; Jude Deveraux's books are quick reads. Jude usually carries me away to a different reality, but in Someone to Love, she doesn't. Overall it's not a memorable book, but I don't feel as if I have completely wasted my time reading it. It had some enjoyable funny moments. I liked the mystery aspect and the fact that Jude tied in the ghosts, it made the plot line more interesting. I honestly was a bit skeptical of this book when I first picked it up; I'm not a big mystery fan usually. I felt that Jude had something good going with the mystery of the ghosts. But she carried on a bit too much on Jace's obsession with the dead and his fiancé. I didn't know his fiancé from reading about her character; mayhap that's why I felt no sympathy for him or Stacy. I have heard this book came out after the tragedy struck of losing her son (Jude's). So in my mind I feel that Jude did a good job after something of that multitude had happened to her. Yes Someone to Love isn't her best, but its not her worst either. The ending I felt was off for the two ghosts. I know Jude meant for it to be sweet but it came off kind of creepy. I wouldn't want that to happen to me. I'm not going to spoil it for future readers. Just know that the ending isn't what you expect, not like it's a twist or anything...it's just weird. I also thought as usual that Jude does a great job with setting. Some readers have complained that Jude has mixed up some English terms with American-English terms, very easy mistake to make especially after having a death in her family. Her editor is most likely American and that's why he/she hadn't caught on to it. There's a lot of slang in English (American), so possibly do you think there's a lot in English terms? I felt this reader maybe a bit particular. It honestly did not bother me when reading Someone to love. Overall the book was not a disappointment, but it was no "Knight in Shining Armor" or "Remembrance". | Dieing to have it end already | Customer Rating: | | I love Jude Deveraux's books, but this one just kept going and going to the point of frustration. Too much of insufficient details that I couldn't care for in the least.I should have trusted the reviews before I read. I decided to try it out myself,and what a disappointment that was. I was so happy it was over. No major shocking ending. Please don't take my word for it, you be the judge. | Not really what I expected | Customer Rating: | | The first romantic novel I ever read was a Jude Deveraux romance. I remember getting SO excited back in the 1990s when her new books were released. While this romance was in no way a bad book, I was left somewhat disappointed. There were no surprises with the plot, and I would really like to have seen the heroine's character more fully developed. I really think her historical novels are superior to her contemporary ones. She's still my favorite romance author, but it has been a long time since I've bought a Jude Deveraux that I want to read over and over again. | Good | Customer Rating: | | I liked Someone to Love. I'm a fan of Jude Deveraux but haven't enjoyed or completed reading any of her recent novels for at least four years. I found the characters and setting interesting. | immaginative | Customer Rating: | | I love the author and she can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned, so I was pretty happy with the book, even though I didn't like the ending. I suppose I'm not that much into ghost sex. But the book is entertaining nevertheless. I thought the hero's character was well-drawn, but the heroine could have used some more work. But this is just nitpicking, really. I was thoroughly entertained. |
