Book Review By amenor
Until You by Judith McNaught

Judith McNaught's UNTIL YOU tells a classical/historical love story between a school teacher, Sheridan Bromleigh, and the Earl of Langsford, Stephen Westmoreland. The story starts off with Sheridan's mission to escort Charise Lancaster to meet her fiancee in England. Unfortunately for Sheridan, Charise ran off with another man and it is her duty to inform of the sad news to the bridegroom to be.

The bridegroom, however, was killed in an accident involving Stephen Westmoreland and now he must inform Charise's party of the unfortunate event. When they were about to meet, Sheridan, whom Stephen assumes is Charise, is struck unconcious by a falling crate.

Sheridan awakens without any memory of her past in Stephen's home. Stephen explains to Sheridan that she is Charise. Stephen is now responsible for finding another suitable love buddy. As days grew, love unexpectedly blossoms between the two.
