Summary: Mildly entertaining
Comment: I hadn't read the first three books in the series when I picked up ENCHANTED so I didn't have any idea what to expect. The book started out well and although I was entertained by Liam's shape-shifting and spending time with Rowan as a wolf, I expected her to really let him have it for violating her privacy when she found out that her friend the wolf was really Liam. Ms. Roberts is usually very good at these confrontational scenes. But Rowan pretty much just accepted the whole thing with barely a protest. Not only did the guy spy on her while she was bathing and worm his way into her affections under false pretenses, but he violated the sanctity of her mind by reading and manipulating her thoughts! Shouldn't Rowan have been just a tad more steamed?
I enjoyed this romance on the level of fantasy and wish that Ms. Roberts had not tried to give witchcraft a credibility it does not have. Wicca has no connection to the ancient Celts or any other ancient pagan religions. It's New Age and occultic mishmash that was quite literally invented in the 1960s. This story would have worked much better if Wicca had not been mentioned and the witchcraft and shape-shifting had retained the dreamy quality of a good fantasy novel.

Summary: Captivating!
Comment: "Enchanted" is the fourth book in Nora Roberts' "Donovan Legacy" and it is exactly as its name suggests, enchanting. It is a lovely tale of fantasy and romance, and of finding the truest magic in the heart.
Rowan Murray has finally made a decision for herself and escaped from her smothering life in San Francisco to a friend's cabin on the Oregon coast. Rowan immediately feels more at home in her new surroundings than she ever did in the city, and for the first time in longer than she can remember, she begins to listen to her heart.
Rowan falls in love with the place she is calling home, and notices almost every day a sleek and gorgeous black wolf watching the cabin (and her) out of his golden eyes. She also meets her dangerously handsome and mysterious neighbour Liam Donovan. Rowan and Liam have an immediate and intense response to each other, which continues to grow as they become friends.
But Liam Donovan is filled with indecision. The innocent and beautiful Rowan makes his blood run hot and his body yearn, but he feels he has no right to take advantage of her at such a vulnerable time in her life. He also knows his honour is such that he will not allow their relationship to progress much further, until she knows of his special heritage and the gifts that come with it.
Will Rowan be able to accept Liam for who he is once she knows the incredible truth? And will Liam be able to open his guarded heart and offer Rowan the one thing that really matters?
Read it and find out.
I really loved this book. Nora Roberts has crafted a sweet and whimsical tale of magic and destiny and love. The story is refreshingly original and the romance between Rowan and Liam is fresh and fun. I thought Liam was a great hero, stubborn and brooding, but yet with a soft and loving heart. He's not in the least bit creepy, and all that's necessary to realize that is a bit of imagination. This is a story of magic - it's not supposed to be realistic - who would want it to be? So when you read this book, suspend your disbelief and just enjoy it. I guarantee this magical, fanciful tale will sweep you away and leave you sated and happy!

Summary: Breathtakingly Romantic
Comment: Once I've got into the story, I could not lay it down for even just 2 minutes. It is breathtakingly romantic. The love between Rowen and Liam's wolf form is so touching and intoxicating. The little plays between them, the hug, the nuzzle and the kiss all display a profound love scene. The description of love-making through minds is so amazing that I could not help to appeal to God--Please make this possible earthly!
The romantic story is weaved between magic and ordinary life. It reminds readers the responsibilities they have for their own living, for the one they love and for society. But on the other hand, it also reminds us that some time and fun for ourselves may not only be inconflict with our responsibility, but may even help us to accomplish it better. Hope you all enjoy this book as much as I do.
