About this ebook
The first in the Velvet Montgomery Annals Quadrilogy is an epic historical romance that will stay with you long after you turn the final page—from New York Times bestselling author Jude Deveraux.
At the flower-bedecked altar, the first touch of their hands ignited an all-consuming passion. Gavin Montgomery looked deep into her golden eyes and burned with desire for her but his heart had been pledged to another. Humiliated and alone in a strange castle, Judith resolved to hate this husband who took her body, but rejected her love...never admitting her fear of losing him.
But destiny held another fate for Judith...a fate that would keep at last.

It was a long story with so many pages dedicated to the many villains. I've read a lot of historical romance novels and I've never seen so much focus given to so many villains in any given story until this one. It gets tiring after awhile and it felt like the main characters were competing with the villains for the readers' full attention. The end was sudden and not well thought. It felt like the author had used up the maximum words allowed (focusing on the villains) and had to rush and insert the ending. I found it really disappointing.

One of the books that I enjoyed so much. My second time reading this novel. I am not so much into physical attraction at first, but everything in here is in harmony. This is not a fairytale, but a story of fate and destiny. Too bad I want more.

Another great story! I laughed and cried and got so mad at some of the characters. I'm getting ready to read the next book! Can't wait!
