Be forewarned, this is NOT a book you can read as a stand-alone. I made the mistake of reading the first in this series and unknowingly skipping the second to read the third. Boy, what a difference one book makes. Where "Untamed" had an element of magic an mystery, I felt it was still somewhat grounded in reality. "Enchanted" seemed as if the author was trying too hard and she overtook the boundaries of that magical element so that the end result was a book that was completely unbelievable to me More...

This book was lent to me by annadlx as part of a sort of Elizabeth Lowell sampler. Although I had read Untamed a while ago, I am not always into medieval stories, but when they are well-written (such as those by Madeline Hunter, in my opinion), they are great. I enjoyed the mixture of history and magic in this tale, and found the characters credible and moving.

Whoever sees this book in my collections says, "Hey this isn't Ella Enchanted...". Well I wasn't looking for Ella Enchanted, dudes, this is another book, just Enchanted. I came across this hmmm wat should I say, it wasn't amazing, it wasn't boring, guess average is what I would say. So discovered this during a time when I wanted a change from the murder mysteries. Thought a romance would be fun. The plot basically is a will they, won't they... have sex that is. That's about it... the other stuff More...

I am in a reading funk. I hate that! First, I finished the trio of Elizabeth Lowell beardy hero books. I loved the first two, Untamed and Forbidden. But the last one, Enchanted, was a super big bummer.

Reading books about raped heroines is not my favorite, but sometimes it's okay if.....(a) the rape is not described in gory detail, and (b) the "healing" part is appropriate for a "rape" book (in other words, don't have a rape victim get it on with a BDSM master, etc.) and (c) the HEA is really sat More...

I've thoroughly enjoyed the entire medieval trilogy by Elizabeth Lowell, which started with Untamed, followed by Forbidden, and ending with this book, Enchanted. Though they were, in some ways, a bit predictable, they were also quite satisfying in their conclusions.

I'm very sad that she has no plans for more medieval stories, but I do plan on reading more of her works.

Though each of her books can be read alone, I do highly suggest reading the entire trilogy in order. More...

There are so many things I want to say about this whole series, but I seriously doubt I could communicate them here. Too many thoughts to sort out.

I'll try.

I absolutely love this series. I love Lowell's writing. She creates awesome characters. Her story line is ethereal.

The only disappointment I have is that Erik of Sea Home does not get his own book. According to HeroesAndHeartbreakers.com...

Also, at the end of this book, Lowell put in a blurb about why she writes Medieval stories. That blur More...

This fantastical romance set during the reign of Henry I in England/Scotland showcased a strong pair of lovers who must overcome misunderstandings to find true love. Ariane is forced into a marriage with

Soo I read this book because I had read literally all of the books I had rented from the library and home that I had never read before. I have sleep problems and have to read before bed, so my mom gave me this book until I received books from the library. Normally I'm a super fast reader but because I've never read a historic romance before, so it was a hard read until I got use to it. It was confusing at first because I had no idea what was going on because I had no idea it was the last in the More...

The book was good but not entirely enjoyable. It balanced between good parts and bad parts....but at least there was balance. Enchanted is the third book in Elizabeth Lowell's Medieval series. However it was the first one I read. I liked it enough that I would consider trying the other two in the series, but I don't know if I liked it enough to want to keep it on my shelves at home. I'll have to think about that some more.

ALthough part of a series, I felt it could definitely be a stand-alone boo More...

i think the writer got confused if she should target middle school romantics or erotica adults and ended up making a bad messy novel with too many sword seath references and couples cooing at each other every time they saw or talked to each other. Other 2 book are bad but this is worst of the lot. I am not even sure why i kept reading after guys calling their wives names like "little falcon" in first book, "amber witch" in second and to top it all "little nightingale" in the third one. I am a ho More...

This book really pulled the story together. If you love a good romantic tale of long ago you will love this series. It makes you want more. There are not Fae or druids but lots of insinuation of such - the wowmen whom are gifted are called "witches" and the men socerrers or Learned. Would love to see Erik and Cassandra get drawn more into the story. The plot is fantastic and the author does a great job describing the scenes in detail you feel like you are walking in the story with them. Truly we More...

This book is an old favorite, even though the hero was almost unbelievably oblivious through the main part of the book. I like the atmosphere of medieval England- the everpresent sense of danger from attack, magic interwoven with everyday affairs, and the sense that knights weren't just all about jousting and parading about: this was a land and a time that necessitated that society train and support specialized fighters in order to maintain safety and, hopefully, peace.

2 Stars...It was just Ok

I've seen nothing but pretty high ratings and rave reviews for this one so I'm kind of confused at what the heck's going on...Obviously it's my problem...

From page one I kept hearing the Twilight Zone theme in the back of my mind because this book was just no way around it weird! The characters were ok I guess so my issue isn't there...I like paranormal/truth seers/witches novels so that's not what threw me off...So maybe it's the writing or just the whole storyline itsel More...

I really like Elizabeth Lowell.This book was a bit suprising. Having read the first in the serie thought it would be similar but it as a lot more fantasy(people and animals with special abilities that she calls Learned)not my fancy.
But she does real good stories.And because she is who she is can't go below 4 stars.

Hmm, not sure how to describe this one. Purple prose. Medieval fantasy. Lots of lust and a bit of magic. Not dreadful, but the prose is a bit too over-heated for my taste. Maybe I'll try another one - not sure.

As I am new to good reads & am just now adding my books I will not be giving detailed reviews at this point. Hopefully I will have time to edit & give reviews later.

And another medieval series finished :) I read Mrs. Lowell one novel before but this third book is awesome in the comprehend :) I wish she writes much more medieval novels.

Like it's title it's enchanting. I read this books years and year ago and have reread it a couple times. It's a great romance with a little bit of magic.

i couldn't get into the book the whole magical element was just to much for me and the ending was sort of there and then gone all of the sudden i checked out another book in the series hoping its better!!

Good however not what I was expecting at all the synopsis on this book isn't very clear and was a surprise however a good one!!

Amazing! Literally read it in one night because I couldnt put it down. One of the best trilogies I have ever found!

Probably not my favorite of the 3 medievals in this series by Elizabeth Lowell. Enjoyed the read however.

It's been a while since I've read a medieval romance, and I forget how difficult those times are. Decent read.

Downside is I didn't realize that this is the third book of a trilogy. Now, I have to go hunting for the firs two.

I wrote a comment somewhere. I thought it was here but now I don't know where I put it! oops! :):) suffice to say...I loved the plot idea, the era, in general the people but hated the Purple Prose. It would go on and on and on and after 10 pages, he's just managed to kiss her.

Not as good as the first, but not terrible either.

Extremely purple prose. But reasonably entertaining.

I made the mistake of skipping book 2 in the series but I still found this book to be very enjoyable. The vulnerabilities of both the main characters made the story complex and interesting. I also loved the magical aspects of the storyline. It's been a while since I've read multiple chapters of any book in one sitting but that was the case this time.

As a quick side note, the author's note at the end of the book explaining why she is now writing medieval romances was really amazing and I was in More...

This was an extremely romantic novel!

Simon the Loyal and Ariane the Betrayed

loved this series!!!!
