Synopsis

From one of the world's most beloved novelists comes a triumphant historical romance that sweeps from modern-day Virginia to 1873 Colorado, weaving a time-travel tale filled with adventure, tenderness, and passion that only New York Times bestselling author Jude Deveraux could deliver.

Her wedding fast approaching, celebrated chef Kady Long knew she was the luckiest woman alive…until she slipped into a delicate satin wedding dress she found in an antique flour tin, and was overcome by an odd dizzy spell. When she came to, Kady was in the dusty western town of Legend, Colorado—where a hanging was about to commence! With quick wits and more than a little moxie, Kady halts the proceedings, much to the relief of one Cole Jordan, a tall, thankful, and very appealing man.

Now it’s Kady’s turn to enlist his help to find a way back home. But before long, Kady discovers a passion that she knows can only live in Legend—until Cole reveals a secret that unites them in a way Kady never could have imagined.

About Jude Deveraux

Jude Deveraux was born in Fairdale, Kentucky as Jude Gilliam. After earning a degree in art from Murray State University and studying teaching at the University of New Mexico, she taught fifth grade in Santa Fe, New Mexico until her first book, “The Land of Enchantment”, was accepted for publication by Avon books.

The American Romance novel author is well known for her historical romances and has forty-one New York Times bestsellers to date, including “Moonlight in the Morning” and “A Knight in Shining Armor”. There are more than sixty million copies of her books in print worldwide. Deveraux, who was described as "a popular romance author" by the New York Times in 2009, appeared as herself in the 1987 romance novelist documentary “Where the Heart Roams”.

Jude has lived in England and Egypt as well as in several American states, and she has traveled around the world. In her spare time, she likes to read nonfiction and murder mysteries, work in her garden, and in her boxing class, she enjoys showing much younger males that she can throw a mean right cross.

....I'm not a huge fan of the romance genre, so I read this book with resignation, when a friend insisted. I couldn't have been more surprised. Time travel, twists and turns, and remarkable characters make this a fantastic read for book lovers of ANY genre.

Goodreads review by Aj the Ravenous Reader on September 13, 2020

I don't remember anything much about this book because I read this 15 years ago when I found it lying around the house helplessly pleading me to read it. So, I did and well I remember that the girl in the story is not your conventional pretty skinny heroine. I also remember that the story contains a......more

Vaya libro!!! He terminado de leerlo literalmente con la lengua fuera, de todo lo que leído. Parece que he vivido yo todo lo que relata. No voy a contar mucho pues seria un sacrilegio spoilear. Solo decir que cuando crees que la historia va por un lado da un quiebro y casi te tira de donde estés leye......more

Goodreads review by Heather K (dentist in my spare time) on September 11, 2024

I'm seriously laughing at myself because I picked up this old paperback on vacation having zero memory of ever reading it. It was only at like 75% in that I thought.... waaaaiiiitttt, this book feels familiar. Checking Goodreads, I realized I read it for the first time over 12 years ago, way back in......more

Goodreads review by Christine on May 14, 2018

This was really good. It kept me wanting to read, even when I didn't have time. I love how everything was wrapped up, a bit out there, in the believability department, but it was still nice. I think history would be changed quite a bit more if even just one thing was changed in the past, and that's......more
