Must read

I havent read a book in such a long time that is so interesting and funny that I couldnt put it down till I finished, this book is a must read for all historical romance readers

A new author..

This was a new author for me and I throughly enjoyed the book, I found the scenaro a bit hard to swallow but it worked well in this story. What I enjoyed most was the development of the hero and heroine which was exceptional. The heroine at times was a bit angry but she had every right to be and I loved the fact that she was stalwart in her right to be believed. I thought a few characters were a bit over the top, Quin's father but he was a wonderful contrast for the h/he to play off of. I found that I like the voice of Suzanne Enoch and am looking forward to reading her back list to see if Rafe had his own story. I would highly recommend readers who want a most unusual heroine.

Simple Story..A Worthy Read 4.5 Stars

I liked the development of this story. It was clear and concise without a thousand subplots and enoch kept the focus on the hero and heroine. The characters were well developed and I enjoyed reading of their struggles to come together. Sometimes keeping the story simple is such a good idea. So many HR authors seem to have forgotten that in their new releases - I guess in attempts to come up with something new they end up muddling down a story with just too much ado. Also, the love scenes in here were hot, even if short. It amazes me how almost all of the new books out have the first love scenes between the couple take up several pages with them going through every base and more and back again before they (how in the world do I delicately put this?) get on with it. That just seems so unrealistic. I think there is more likely to be so much passion in most of the circumstances in a story and still a little bit of timidity with a first time. So I just really enjoyed reading this today and recommend it as fun and loving read.

I loved it!

"By Love Undone" is my first Suzanne Enoch book - I actually picked up 3 at once because they're all highly recommended! I'm definitely not disappointed with this, I totally loved it. The female lead character, Maddie was a great, strong character - and I loved the fact that Quin fell in love with her for that. Their scathing, sarcastic words to each other were just so perfect - totally sizzling with underlying sexual tension. And I was very very impressed with the ending, wonderfully written - not many authors would ever risk the chance of the 'perfect' happy ending, which in my opinion makes it seem a bit too unbelievable. I loved that Quin chose Maddie, he loved her that much, to forsake all the other inconsequential ('dull') things in his life. I totally fell in love with both the Bancroft brothers and cannot wait to start on 'Taming Rafe'. If you haven't read this, you definitely should.
