Legend

This was the first ever Jude Deveraux book I have ever read. I'm skeptical to try new writers, but Jude Deveraux took my breath away. Legend has mystery, romance, time travel, and adventure all rolled into one book. There are so many surprises in this book and you are shocked through most of it. If you are looking for a book that you cant put down and thats going to keep you up all night, I highly recommend this one. You fall in love with Cole Jordan at first, then you fall in love with Tarik. You hate Gregory, he's the typical "player" type of guy who all women in the world band against. Your heart goes out to Kady as she goes through heartache and love. I fell in love with Legend, Colorado. I wanted to go there so bad after I finished reading. So please read this novel,you wont be disappointed.

Loved, Loved, Loved, this book. It makes you want to go to Legend. Has lots of surprises throughout the book. You wont put this one down till the end. Then you will wish for a sequel. Thank you Jude Deveraux, for another well writted time travel.

I've read books upon books since I finished this one, but I have to be completely honest, to this day, "Legend" is still my absolute favorite. I agree with most of the reviewers that the Love interested between Kady and Cole was so engaging it made it so Tarik never stood a chance. Regardless of the shortcomings toward the end with the switching up of suitors for Kady, I couldn't say a negative word against it. This is the only Jude Deveraux book I've read, but I'm certain I will have to read another. For anyone considering reading this book; DO. You already know that it has flaws, but so does every aspect of humanity, and life in general. Please read this book if only for the sake of getting to know the character Cole, because I promise you he is someone you will never forget.

The first thing that I liked about this novel was the imperfect heroine. She was beautful, yes, but she had a weight problem!Yay! Then of course, add the quintessential hero (tall, dark, handsome and RICH), and it makes for some interesting reading. Time travel is not a plausible concept in most romance novels, so I don't normally expect Physics 101. Cole was great, but right from the start we know that Kady has had lifelong dreams about a tall, dark, veiled man being the love of her life, so I definitely did not expect Cole to be her romantic interest (he was blonde). This story was not so much a romance, as it was a journey of self-discovery for Kady. She became more assertive and recognised her worth after her time travel jaunt. She was a door-mat previously, always willing to help everyone at her expense, but she starts working on that when she returns. In light of her caring feelings for Cole, it is no wonder that she wants to return to his past to rectify the circumstances in his youth, and her attitude to the money was, in my view, honourable. The romance between Tarik and Kady is not so much a love story as it is a recognition of their love. "Legend" itself provides the colourful backdrop for Kady's journeys, and one can't help but love the residents in Cole's version.Buy this book. It will leave you with a warm feeling, and a silly smile on your face.

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
