This is, without a doubt, one of the most ROMANTIC books I have ever read. I can’t remember another book that had me this captivated. Though I must admit that I’m in a bit of a fog as I sit here to write this review. I went into the beginning of Until You with semi-low expectations. After Kingdom of Dreams and Whitney My Love shot Judith McNaught into a favorite author spot, I was hesitant to read something of hers that would lessen my opinion of her skill. And this one had ratings (3.98 at the time) that just didn’t seem on the same level. As a result, I waited MONTHS to pick up this one. Why, oh why? This is in my top ten favorite books of all time. Royce and Jennifer’s romance was epic. The imagery and passion absolutely blew me away. Then came Claymore and Whitney and their volatile, angsty, controversial relationship. How could the name Westmoreland continually evoke such a strong surge of emotion? And how can one author have such an incredible talent? I am absolutely floored. FLOORED! I fought back silly, sappy romantic tears because I wanted so badly for Stephen and Sherry to WIN in their utterly impossible relationship!!!!!I won’t recap the story, as you can read the blurb. The amnesia was handled in a believable way, and Sherry’s utterly pitiful reaction to waking up after days of unconsciousness without any memories was heartbreaking. Imagine not knowing what your own face looks like! And Stephen’s compassion for her situation was an instant recipe for my devotion. He has become so jaded in respect to women. They throw themselves at him for money and title in the hopes that he will increase their social standing. No one cares for him as a person, and he is so obviously aware of it. As Sherry’s refreshingly innocent attitude begins to light him up, I was became absolutely captivated. Their romance is easy and beautiful to watch as it unfolds. Even the drama involved with the amnesia almost seems to fade into the background because I was lost in such a haze. “If I had a hundred kingdoms, I would trade them all for you, my dearest love. Iwas nothing until you.”The ending, GOD!!! The ending!!!! I wonder how many days I will tear up just remembering, and how many times in my life I will reread just those pages, the most romantic words ever. Let me just say that holding hands will forever invoke much stronger emotions in me. Somehow, Ms. McNaught made it an erotic act, a touching act, and a way to communicate beyond words. Often I find a romantic but hard-assed hero hard to appreciate. He is either unbelievable or too much of a pansy. But Stephen Westmoreland is everything I want in a historical romance hero. Aside from the obvious looks and money, his emotions that he can’t express are so evident in his actions and looks…and the way this author has with words, I swear I could see the expressions on his face. He was in love with ME!!! I was Sherry, and I was THERE!!! And when he finally, FINALLY gives his all to her…and finally thinks “Until You,“ there aren’t words to describe how emotional a moment it is. Truly, this is a magical, beautiful story. This is topping my favorites shelf. “The Earl and Countess of Langford!"**SHIVERS**
