Legend

Jude seems to like reincarnation. Why can't she give us the REAL hero? In LEGEND there were Cole Jorden and Cole Tarick Jorden and this gave me a feeling of uncertainty at the end of the story. These two person to me were completely different although they shared the same family name. Sure, both were sweet and handsome ( aren't they all? LOL. ) but it seemed to me that Kady had loved both of them.
As the reader, i liked Cole Jorden, but i also liked Cole Tarick Jorden....so how??? It is very difficult to explain but those who have read the book should get my point.
However, it's still not a bad story. there were humour and it was touching.
KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR was better though. but the reason that i don't like KNIGHT is the same reason why i don't like LEGEND. it doesn't seem like the heroin was in love with the same person.
When i finished these two books, i didn't have a feeling of contentment. the reason i gave only 2 stars is pretty obvious: The heroins had multiple lovers ( ? ) .
Still, Judith deserves some credit for her creative ideas and humour.
Judith, if you are reading this, next time, please give us the REAL heroine and hero at the end, not a reincarnation substitude. PUH-LEEEEASE.

This was my first Jude Deveraux book. I love books on time travel and this was the tops. The characters came alive for me. I started reading this book and did'nt put it down until I finished. Then I rushed out and bought A Knight in Shining Armor but it wasn't as good, but it was ok. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted to escape for a few hours. It's tops on my list.

One of Jude Deveraux's time travel stories,it was good but not as good as A Knight and Shinning Armor... alot of twists in the story,the main character Kady,chubby gorgeous girl,went back in time and saved Cole,dark handsome man,which she married during that time to survive,helped him to experience love... i liked this one ... the character is not perfectly slim or thin,like in most books... the stories are great eventhough the characters are not perfect... it was GOOD...

While I understand some points others' reviews have made, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was different enough with the time travel theme from typical romances, and I didn't find it as predictable as most romances are. Ruth Jordan's appearance was a total plot twist and kept you wondering where this story was going next. I am definitely going to check out Rememberance and Knight in Shining Armor.

Legend facinated me. You did not know what to expect most of the time. It was artfully written. Legend was a delight to read. The end was somewhat of a let down on the epilogue but I guess Jude Deveraux may have another series in store for us. I for one would love to know about the Jordan family tree and what happened to Wendell

I love this book, regardless of what some readers think. I read legend about a year ago and I still remember the characters and the story vividly. This is one Jude Deveraux book that her fans can't afford to miss. In fact, it's her best since the knight in shining armour

Ms. Deveraux has the ablility to leave her readers completly spell bound. She has written the two best books I have ever read, Legend and Knight in Shining Armor. As long as she continues to wright books I will continue to purchase them.

This book was very different. It was intriguing and thought provoking. I don't think it is that hard to fall in love with 3 different guys! In a sense, it is only 2. Because the 3rd is the ancestor of Cole. It was good, worth the $.

Jude Deveraux is my favorite romance writer. I try to read everything she puts out although I am personally partial to those stories that involve time travel. This is a good book and while I do not like it as much as some of her others, I do recommend it.

A knight in shining armor was the first dude deveraux book that I read. I loved it and fell in love with time travel. So I rushed to get Legend and Rememberance. I read Legend first but I was really disappointed. I agree that the first half book was great while cole and kady were together. but as soon as cole disapppeared from the storyline, it's getting weird to see how farfetched it was to bring the T man and kady together. So many loose end with no answers. the wedding dress? It would definitely be a GREAT book if she concerntrated just on cole, ghost or not. Now I am afraid that Rememberance will turn out to be the same as this one.

To me, this book is absolutely the best! Although the time travel bit does not really make any logical sense but who care! The plot, the story, the adventure, the love in the story speak to my heart. I wish I could too be whirled off to another time, another place for a while, away from all the reality of the present world. And the part on the dream, that recurring dream Kady has, I wish I have some indication like her, to tell me who the man of my life would be.

I was disapointed with this one also. I have also read all of her books, and I don't know, this one was too weird. Maybe I am biased because I don't like time travel stories (though A Knight in Shining Armor wasn't bad).

I usually read romance books but this one grabbed me like nothing else mattered. It was moving and emotional. The twists in it were surprising and captivating. If it hadn't been for school, I would never have put the book down until I finished it.

This story has a good premise, and with some character development and plot development, this has the potential of being a really good book. There are some really good ideas, and some really good plotlines, but they need to be developed. Also the book was really anticlimatic.

I was worried since it was recommended along with remembrance but happy to say there is no comparison. I struggled to get through remembrance but couldn't turn the pages fast enough with legend. Great job ms deveraux

I have read Legends before, several years ago. I was looking for a good book by Jude Deveraux, I love her Montgomery series. I ordered the book and could not put it down; I forgot just how good it really was. I loved the mystery, the time travel, and the romance! A wonderful book, to read after a hard day are work!
