Product Description:
Bestselling author Judith McNaught masterfully portrays a remarkable heroine, and an unforgettable passion, in this powerfully moving love story -- one of her most beloved novels of all time!
The tempestuous marriage of Alexandra Lawrence, an innocent country girl, and Jordan Townsende, the rich and powerful Duke of Hawthorne, is about to face its ultimate test of tender loyalty. Swept into the endlessly fascinating world of London society, free-spirited Alexandra becomes ensnared in a tangled web of jealousy and revenge, stormy pride and overwhelming passion. But behind her husband's cold, arrogant mask, there lives a tender, vital, sensual man...the man Alexandra married. Now, she will fight for his very life...and the rapturous bond they alone can share.

- Good but not my favorite
For some reason, I had a few issues with SW. It's still one of the better written historical romances and there really isn't anyone better at it then JM. I think I had some issues with the storyline when Jordan returns to Alex. And the murder plot, really shallow. That's probably why I can't give it a 5 star. To me something wasn't quite right about the story but it's good for it's genre.

- Lovely
This is the first Judith Mcnaught book i have read and i am so glad i did. I've already got some of her other books on hold at the library now!
Something Wonderful was just such a lovely, entertaining read that when i finished it this morning i couldn't help but smile. Alex may seem to some to be a bit of a 'goodie goodie' but rather than making me cringe or roll my eyes at her character i liked her and i think her character worked perfectly with Jordan's - who is so cynical and bitter ...

Rating: - Middle portion needs to be as endearing as the beginning and ending, still four stars
Something Wonderful almost gets a five star rating it was enchanting, extremely well written and very witty. The major drawback is the heroine seems to switch personalities mid stream in the book; this was jarring as I absolutely loved her character up to this point in the novel.
Jordan the Duke of Hawthorne is jaded world weary, resigned and has almost no trust in anyone except perhaps his grandmother. He is accosted by highwaymen and who should ride to his rescue but what looks like a ... Read More
Rating: - Something special
I liked this book a lot. It was rich in detail, plotting and character development. This is my second favorite McNaught book(Kingdom of Dreams is number one for me).
This book was in my tbr pile for over a year. I was convinced that no book could live up to the hype or even the title. I was so wrong. Jordon and Alexandra were a great couple. I was fully invested in their love story and was so happy when they FINALLY got their HEA.
A few minor gripes which in no way detract from ... Read More
Rating: - Absolutely could not put it down
McNaught has a knack for making you fall in love with her characters. I feel as though I know them so well and I become so engaged with her books for that reason...I become emotionally invested in the outcome of the characters. My only complaint about this one is that the ending was too abrupt. After going through so many struggles for so long, it just ended too quickly. But I still thoroughly enjoyed the story and highly recommend.
