NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Jude Deveraux returns to the magnificent, sunny island in For All Time, the second novel in her Nantucket Brides trilogy—this time featuring the next generation of her beloved family of Montgomery-Taggerts.
The wedding of Alix Madsen and Jared Montgomery is a glorious affair at an elegant little chapel in the woods, followed by dinner and dancing, all while moonlight blankets the festivities in a romantic glow. While most guests are fixed on the happy couple, Jared’s cousin Graydon can’t look away from a bridesmaid, Toby Wyndam. It’s not just her quiet beauty that enthralls him or the way she makes him laugh. Toby possesses the truly remarkable ability of being able to distinguish Graydon from his identical twin brother, Rory. According to family legend, such a gift marks her as Graydon’s True Love.
But Graydon knows there is no possible way that they can ever be together, for he is heir to the Lanconian throne and is to marry a noble woman who has been chosen for him. Yet, intrigued by Toby, he asks her to help him hide on Nantucket for a week away from regal responsibilities. In exchange, he’ll assist her with planning acclaimed novelist Victoria Madsen’s lavish wedding. Since they both know their union is impossible, the pair promises that they will never be more than just friends.
But there’s more going on between Graydon and Toby than her unique power to tell him apart from his twin. At work are forces beyond their control, which are ruled by time itself. Combine that with the magical island of Nantucket, and a seductive spell is cast over Graydon and Toby. If they are to be together, they must change what once was, as well as what will be.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Jude Deveraux's Ever After.

      Deveraux’s pleasant second Nantucket Brides novel picks up where True Love left off: with Toby Wyndam preparing her friend Lexie’s perfect wedding. Toby doesn’t have time to play games with Graydon Montgomery, the groom’s cousin, who enjoys swapping places with his fun-loving identical twin brother, Rory. When Toby has no trouble telling the two apart, Graydon, the heir to the throne of fictional Lanconia, speculates that he and Toby are soul mates who will always recognize each other. Deciding a vacation from princely duties is due, Graydon stays in Nantucket to get to know Toby—platonically, since they both know he’s slated for a political marriage at home. Toby vows to keep her heart free, but circumstances and feelings change when they realize their souls may be linked now and in generations past. This story of commoner and king would be as entertaining without the paranormal elements, but the soul mate twist adds a bit of depth.

      The second novel in the best-selling author's Nantucket Brides trilogy doubles up on romance with twin brothers and reincarnated lovers.Prince Graydon Montgomery is attending his cousin's wedding on Nantucket when Toby Wyndam catches him impersonating his twin brother. The fact that Toby is the only person who can distinguish the heir to the Lanconian throne from his self-indulgent sibling hearkens back to an old family legend saying that's the way to recognize true love. Though Graydon is as gentle and humble as a modern-day royal can be (he cooks, drives and wears T-shirts), his hand has already been promised to Lady Danna Hexonbath, whom his brother secretly loves. So Graydon contrives to stay with Toby on Nantucket while she organizes a decadent wedding for a best-selling author-and sends his brother to Lanconia in his place to give himself a little freedom before his engagement party. When Graydon's sword-wielding entourage arrives to keep him in check, the delightfully stoic bodyguards also give Toby a crash course on Lanconian customs, from which kinds of cheese they prefer to their attitudes about social class. Deveraux's fictitious country ingeniously keeps her prince out of the public eye while giving him a sense of duty that stops him from getting with the times and marrying a commoner. Toby, who's still a virgin, also holds on to antiquated ideals to avoid getting her heart broken in a doomed relationship. Little do the lovers know that their future happiness depends on time traveling to Regency-era Nantucket to reunite a couple separated by similar circumstances. If only the paranormal element of the plot had been introduced sooner; Toby's research into her town's history gives her and Graydon a mystery to solve while they resist each other's charms and inspires her plan for a beautiful Regency-themed wedding complete with empire-waist gowns and tailcoats.This charming sequel should be read in sequence to clarify the circumstances that bring Graydon and Toby together, but the lovers from different worlds are soon caught in an engrossing period romance that transcends time.

      The next in Deveraux's Nantucket Brides trilogy begins at a wedding where the groom's cousin, Prince Graydon Montgomery of tiny Lanconia, spies bridesmaid Toby Wyndam. He's flummoxed when he realizes Toby can tell him apart from his twin brother, Rory, a feat that in family legend means Graydon and Toby are meant for each other. Wanting to spend more time with her, Graydon trades places with Rory, devising a way that Rory can keep up with affairs of state via cell phone while Graydon becomes not an heir to a kingdom, but rather a man enjoying himself for a week. When Rory breaks his arm, Graydon's stay with Toby is extended. Even though she finds herself falling for him, Toby knows theirs is only a temporary fling. All goes well until the past overtakes the present when Graydon and Toby begin reliving similar lives in early Nantucket via a haunted house. Readers are strongly urged to read the first of the series, True Love (2013), in order to grasp all the complicated relationships before tackling this second book.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)

Alas, Graydon is unhappily set to marry an eligible royal. Will love and legend or duty win out?
