Has anyone read it?  She used to be so good but lately all her heroines are in their mid-40s and on their 2nd marriage which, no offense to those of you in your mid-40s, isn't appealing to me.  I miss the Knight In Shining Armor Jude.

Well I have to say as I get older, reading about 20 yr old virgins just doesn't cut it for me anymore.  Plus 40 something romances can be very romantic, and lets face it, that's what we read them for, right?

I have Someone To Love on my wishlist.  Jude Deveraux used to be an auto buy author for me until the Forever books.  After I read the first Forever book I lost interest.  I miss her older style of writing, especially A Knight In Shining Armor, which is still one of my all time favorites.

I know, the Forever series was weird and made very little sense to me.

Twin of Ice is one of my all-time favorite books and I agree with you guys and her Forever series.  Very different style and one that I don't care for. 

I don't mind 40 somethings as the heroines, but I want her old writing style back.
