This is a book tht is a page turner, and if your like me you never want a good book to end. I loved the whole story, I couldn't help but laugh out loud about M.C. Hammer....tht was CLASSIC...when I read tht I couldn't help but sing the song in my head. The hero Al's "personality" either had me grinning or laughing and my kids looked at me like I was weird.

Great combo of modern independent woman, chivalrous musketeer and a nice fat touch of magic to help the hope and love along. Thank you Maggie Shayne for sharing.

A great read that was fun and cute. It was short and to the point and gave a great new perspective on women's need to assert their independence and men's need to be chivalrous. It took me a little under two hours to steam roll through this delightful read. Worth every penny!!

This book was a really good short read. The hero Alexandre will make your heart melt. He is the kind of man that most women secretly wish for. Again, good story in a short read for those that want a good book but don't have a lot of time to devote to a long book.
