Such a great story!

The characters are so well developed and dovetail nicely with related stories - but you don’t have to read those stories before you can enjoy this one. Although not historically accurate, the dialogue is interesting and funny - and how you would picture such exchanges in your dreams. Very entertaining - takes you “away” ;-)

A Paranormal Medieval "Faery"tale

This was an excellent addition to this series. All the elements fit nicely within this story of "paranormal oddities." That's what I like about Lynn Kurland: She glues all the bizarreness together with humor to create a fun, lighthearted story that somehow makes sense! The main characters in this installment were enduring and sweet to one another while the side characters helped develop the story. I liked their romantic journey and I appreciate that serious consideration was given when when it came to making a choice. The narrator for this installment did a great job too with the accents and her use of inflection. She held my interest until the end.

I loved this one!

This book Enchanted Evening was different than most romance books we read these days this was clean. I must say that the time travel was fun, I must say though that the plot was very light the main characters were not instantly in love with one another, Yet you felt like you were there watching them fall in love one day at a time. I did not like the fact that the sister Cinderella was so horrid, having sisters that did not make sense to me, but I do think that if you want a light clean read with lots of romance and finding your soul mate this will be a joy for you to read,

An enjoyable PG13 romance

This story is sweet, “toned down” in the romance department and PG13. However the rating does not detract from the story line. I really enjoyed it. I also enjoyed Twilight, all of them. This story is nothing like Twilight, except for the PG13 rating and the narrator whom did an excellent job.

A wonderful 'old-fashioned' time travel romance

I just recently "found" Lynn Kurland by reading her newest de Piaget book Stars in Your Eyes and loved it. I instantly started searching for more and found out a few of her books were in audio. I instantly came to download a couple, but was nervous about most of them being narrated by Ilyana Kadushin. (I knew her voice from Twilight and was afraid it would remind me too much of it) I needn't have worried. She did an amazing job.

This book has one of the same problems as Stars did - in that the first few chapters were actually annoying - the heroine complains about her family and the hero is a bit of a wimp. However, get past that point, because once you do, you will fall in love with them. (Though I do think the whole thing about Cinderella was too much. WAY too much. For someone who was such a pain, she should have gotten some sort of slap at the end - and no, I do not think what was done to her was enough.) Though I was glad when Pippa finally took things 'in hand'.

One of my favorite things about Kurland's books is that there isn't that insta-love thing too many romances suffer from. The couple falls in love, but there isn't that lust that overrides the pages and has come to make me yawn.

Take one modern individual and one from the 13th century, time gates throughout England, and a humorous medieval knight who suffers through paranormal oddities, and the family of de Piaget, who seems slated to always find true love in another century. And you get her de Piaget series.

I loved all the audios I've downloaded so far and am now trying to find all the books at a used bookstore since some of them are no longer available in book form.

Highly suggest this series. Especially if you enjoy clean romance, which hers are. (Or at least what I've read/listened to so far.)

Elated to find such a wonderful author.

Fantastic. the narrator made you feel as if you were almost part of the story.

Love me some Lynn Kurland

She is a fabulous write and I love everything she write. Highly suggest reading and listening.

Great story and great narrator

I've been a fan of Lynn Kurland's books for years and was thrilled to see this new one on Audible. Some narrators sound awful doing accents. This narrator does a great job. I will definitely buy any and all by Kurland and Kadushin. Please offer more!

so good

loved it, I read this a few years ago, it was fun to listen to the audio

Eh...

This is okay. It's different, I'll give it that. But there's no sex. A little drawn out. Lynn is a self depricating author and that does make it funny at times.
