      I ended up purchasing this book long before I finally received it from the publisher as I've read all of the other books in this series and have long been waiting for Montgomery's story. Sadly, while a solid read, I felt it was missing the spark. Whether this is due to my expectations for the story, or the story itself, I'll leave for other readers to decide. As I said, a solid entry into this series and a perfect choice for those looking for "clean" romances without the "Christian romance" designation.
    • 3/5
      Time travel, romance, swords and castles...perfect lazy summer afternoon book. I've read them all to date and will continue to watch from them.
    • 3/5
      Like her other time travel books, the story is light, the hero handsome and characters from previous novels abound. But the heroine of this tale, Pippa, is practically spineless, accepting abuse from her sister on a scale that no one else with 5 siblings would contemplate, which makes it difficult to care about what happens to Pippa. This is not my favorite Kurland title, but it does help continue storylines started her in previous novels.
    • 2/5
      Somewhat disappointing. Every character was so cookie-cutter and one dimensional. I find it hard to believe that the one sister was quite that completely awful. If she's that unpleasant, why is everybody going along with her every whim?
    • 4/5
      Always a delight to read a Lynn Kurland "DePiaget time travel" romance. This one is standard fare - which means it is an enjoyable read and well worth the trip to re-visit the gang - and the great news is that Montgomery finally gets his story told. Thumbs up on this one!
    • 4/5
      Lynn Kurland excels at writing romance novels and time travel romance novels. I am not a big fan of the time travel trope or of the middle ages, but while Lynn Kurland is writing on both of these topics, I will be an avid reader. She excels at making the characters so likable and vivid that you buy into the rest of her world, whether it be a world with time travel or the middle ages.This is an interesting take on the evil sister tales - but the heroine being "too nice" to stand up for herself is a bit tiresome. I do not like that so many romance novels equate being a doormat to being a good person. It simply doesn't make any sense to idealize weakness. That said, the heroine does learn to live and grow in such a positive way, that you like her in spite of this. The hero of this novel is as likable as all of Kurland's heroes - strong, capable, curious, and quite funny.I recommend any and all Kurland titles, including this one. While I normally like a book where there are sex scenes, Kurland's books are not about sex at all - she has the bedroom door FIRMLY closed. That does mean that you can feel comfortable loaning or recommending this book to most anyone and that is always nice.

      Persephone, aka Pippa, is on her way to England to begin her total Fashion World Domination plan. A wealthy Englishman is interested in helping her with her design business, and her sister Tess has set up a meeting for the two. But like always, Pippa's oldest sister Cindi comes in to ruin the day, trying to keep Pippa from reaching her dream with a series of "mishaps" - one of which is "accidentally" shoving Pippa... right through a gate in time, and back to the 1200s. Lucky for her, the owner of the ramshackle castle, Montgomery, is there to catch her as she falls. Filled with evil sisters, amusing banter, battles between Montgomery and the castle's former owners, and a love that literally spans the ages, "One Enchanted Evening" is not a book you want to miss!This is my first book by Lynn Kurland. But if this book is anything to go by, I will be needing to read the rest of this series, featuring more of Montgomery's amazing family. I should mention there there are indeed other books, and for the most part, "One Enchanted Evening" seems to be able to stand alone. Near the end, when Montgomery meets more of his family in both time zones, things can definitely get a little confusing. In the beginning, I found this book to be a little dry, but once Pippa lands in England, it's one thrill ride after the next. And beware, it's addicting. Pippa and Montgomery are amazing characters. Pippa is resiliant, bright, and willing to work hard for her family and for her dreams. She's an excellent seamstress, and she has worked and planned for years to finally get the chance that Stephen, the Englishman, is offering her. Unfortunately, things get a little sidetracked when she gets thrown back into the past. Even more unfortunately, Cindi falls back in time too. While Pippa is such a shining character, Cindi is the evil wench. Cindi is the character readers will love to hate, and eagerly want to throttle. You have to hand it to the author, she wrote an excellent evil character, even if said character can get on your nerves. Montgomery had moments of modern-ness to him, but that can be explained by the odd-ness of his family and their history (and future). Montgomery was by far my favorite - witty, wise, and brave. Despite the turmoil occuring in his own home, he put Pippa, and even Cindi's life above his own. As mentioned, the ending can get a little confusing, once different relations start showing up - it's just too many people at once. But don't let that stop you, the ending is worth it. I hope to see this series continued, and Pippa's sisters, or at least the good ones - Peaches and Tess, get their own happily ever afters. I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of historical romance, and definitely time travel romance. I would probably recommend the whole series, despite not reading it - though now it's all added to my Wish list. Lynn Kurland knows how to weave a fantastic tale of adventure in both the past and present, and I cannot wait to see more from her. I'm going to give "One Enchanted Evening" by Lynn Kurland a FOUR POINT FIVE out of FIVE (4.5/5). Loved it, can't wait to read more, and I want a Montgomery of my very own.. actually, if I could get a time gate of my own, that would be great. And a castle. This would be a perfect 5 out of 5 except for the confusion at the end, which would probably be avoided by reading the rest of the series first. But as I said, this can, and does pretty well, stand alone. See this review and more at my blog glowsnoveladdiction.blogspot.com

      I love time travel books and I enjoyed One Enchanted Evening. This is the first book I've read by Lynn Kurland. Although One Enchanted Evening is book 11 in a series; it can be read as a stand alone. However, I felt that I was missing something due to the characters appearing who were in the other books. I liked the "fixer-up" castle and the main characters. This is wonderful escapist fare and I recommend it. Now I will find the first book in this series and read it. I am hooked.
    • 4/5
      I thouroughly enjoyed this book. It's wonderful "time travel" story with plenty of intrigue. I felt the heroin Pippa had just the right balance spunk and sensitvity. Motgomrey the right balance of strenth and honor. Although I admit most of the books I enjoy are a little more risque and I wouldn't have minded if the chracters had actually consummated thier relationship within the confines of the book in general it worked for me.
    • 5/5
      Not sure how I have missed Lynn Kurland, but sure am glad I found her. This is one of the best Cinderella/Prince Charming/Knight in Shining Armor books I have read. Add to it the fact that it has a paranormal theme throughout and this one cannot miss. I would definitely recommend and am thankful to the early review program for bringing Miss Kurkand to my attention. Can't wait to get more of her books..
    • 5/5
      Another excellent entry into her De Piaget/McLeod family books. She manages to write consistently wonderful time travel books without them all sounding alike. I love seeing characters from previous (and future) books. And I adore the interactions between the characters - the way they insult each other, and yet back each other up is terrific. I can't wait for the next book.
    • 5/5
      This was a pleasant time travel romance that is part of a large series but stands alone well. Pippa Alexander is a down-on-her-luck fashion designer who travels to England to meet someone who wants to back her. She slips through a time gate along with her sister Cinderella and finds herself in the year 1214. At first she and her sister are mistaken for fairies. Pippa falls in love with the lord of the castle which is in serious disrepair and inhabited by various villains. Montgomery has had experience with other time travelers before but doesn't tell her. They fall in love and the main conflict is which century they are going to live in.
    • 4/5
      Montgomery finally has a story! I have to admit I am a HUGE Lynn Kurland fan (I have every one of her books) and I have been counting down the days until One Enchanted Evening was available.I fell in love with Montgomery when he was a teenager in When I Fall In Love and he was firmly convinced that Jennifer was from Faery. Well, Montgomery has finally put all of that behind him, working hard to live up to the reputation of his father and older brothers (and it is alot to live up to).Montgomery is given Sedgwick Castle by his father, a suspcious gift at best as it has holes in the walls and ceilings, guardsmen who are less than stellar and cousins who refuse to leave and are plotting Montgomery’s demise. But, it is Montgomery’s to call home so as he moves in to repair the walls and work on the relatives he is shocked when a fairy, wings included, appears on his drawbridge.Persephone, known as Pippa, figures karma owes her after her apartment burns down with all her carefully collected vintage clothing and sewing machines in it. Pippa is showcasing her designs at a children’s party hosted at her sister Tessa’s English castle in a final attempt to get her clothing design career to take off. On the night of the party, as Pippa is wearing her faery costume, she crosses the bridge of the castle and finds herself in the moat of a very different looking castle.Montgomery is everything a knight should be: honorable, chivalrous, and not afraid to kick some serious trash when needed. Pippa is a devoted sister who is a closet HEA fan (Happily Ever After). As Pippa struggles to adjust to 1229 living, she starts to realize there are definite perks to staying with Montgomery. Montgomery doesn’t feel like he has anything to offer a woman from his time period, let alone someone from the future. As each struggles to deal with their growing feelings for each other a threat from within the castle threatens their very lives and makes each evaluate exactly what they want in life.I enjoyed One Enchanted Evening, it felt a lot like coming home because I have become so familiar with Montgomery’s family and time period. Nothing shocking or super unique about this novel as compared to her other stories but it was great to visit old friends and to see Montgomery his own love. Did anyone else get the feeling that John is going to be the next one to get a story? I highly recommend anything by Lynn Kurland!

      One Enchanted Evening gave me one enchanted day...and I can't wait to read it again. Lynn Kurland never disappoints. She made me laugh, hold my breath, and cheer with teary eyes...perfection.
