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.

I'm giving this one two stars even if I didn't finish it because it was well written as all Jude Deveraux books are. I do have many of them on my keeper shelf. I didn't finish this one because the heroine Kady really annoyed me. I know it's important that characters, particularly the heroine, be relatable to readers but after too many references of how the heroine didn't think she was pretty enough or how she was too much of a 'real' woman to be considered fashionable I had to put the book down.Having read Outlander years ago, I am always looking for something that will enthrall me like that book did. This book was on one of the "if you liked..." sites.A caveat, I am not a big romance fan so Ms Deveraux is not my go-to author. The story was interesting enough.

I also remember that the story contains a magical element like a time travel of some sort and I also concretely remember that there are scenes I read which are
Where this book falls on the motor revvin scale:Sweet: This book could be read by Puritans without blushing.--->Sensual: A few pages of sexy time, but mostly story.Hot: NSFW but safe enough for the bus if you hide the cover.Erotic: Oh my.This was my first romance novel. I read it when I was 18 and a prude and I remember being a bit turned on and scandalized at the time. By my standards today, this book hardly counts as PG-13. There's exactly one sex scene, but there's certainly a lot of
