Book Description

Publication Date: 1 Jun 2000
One of today's best-loved authors, Judith McNaught launched her stellar career with this dazzling bestseller. Now in a special edition that features a brand-new, enhanced ending and endows familiar characters with new depth, "Whitney, My Love" lives on as "the ultimate love story, one you can dream about forever" "(Romantic Times)."

Under the dark, languorous eyes of Clayton Westmoreland, the Duke of Claymore, Whitney Stone grew from a saucy hoyden into a ravishingly sensual woman. Fresh from her triumphs in Paris society, she returned to England to win the heart of Paul, her childhood love...only to be bargained away by her bankrupt father to the handsome, arrogant Duke. Outraged, she defies her new lord. But even as his smoldering passion seduces her into a gathering storm of desire, Whitney cannot -- will not -- relinquish her dream of perfect love.

Rich with emotion, brimming with laughter and tears, "Whitney, My Love" confirms once more why "Judith McNaught is truly one of the spellbinding storytellers of our times" "(Affaire de Coeur)."

Product Description

Review

"Judith McNaught is in a class by herself." -- "USA Today"

From the Back Cover

Whitney Stone was not really conscious of the Duke of Claymore, a dark and rather sardonic figure, who watched her grow from a cheeky hoyden into a ravishingly beautiful but quite outrageous young woman. Fresh from her triumphs in Paris, she returned to England determined to win the heart of her childhood love. But she had reckoned without her profligate and bankrupt father, and the arrogant Duke of Claymore. In order to save himself from ruin, her father had come to an arrangement with the Duke, and Whitney was the price.

As a resentful and smouldering bride, Whitney was quite a handful, and in spite of the unexpected sparks of passion that flamed between them, she would not, could not, relinquish her dreams of the perfect love. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars mixed opinions 1 Mar 2005
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I loved this book so much... I know some people have some problems with Clayton and his treatment of Whitney, but i think it just shows his vulnerability beneath his strong facade, he is a complete dreamboat... and as for the chuckled complaint.. i thought it added to his character! i didn't find it at all wearying.. but maybe that is just me. this is a book i will always treasure, i have bought it twice now.. thanks to a very cunning thieving sister! and everytime i read it, it makes my heart explode into a million thousand pieces, It is just so beautiful, it draws me to it like a moth to a flame! i get caught every time.... please please please read it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A masterfully written historical romance 29 July 2002
By ambersaxon696
Format:Paperback
"Whitney my Love" is a wonderful historical romance set in England during the Regency period. I've read many Regency romances and I've thought Georgette Heyer and Marion Chesney were the leading ladies in this genre. I must admit though that Judith McNaught's novel is just as good as their novels.
I like the style in which the author writes about the era and brings its characters fully alive and very colorful.
The main characters are Whitney Stone and Clayton Westmoreland the Duke of Claymore. Whitney is a clumsy hoyden when she is sent to Paris to learn good manners and to conquer society and to find a rich husband.She wants to show to everybody especially her childish first love that she has changed into a beautiful well mannered society lady.
Clayton Westmoreland is rich and handsome and very experienced with the ladies. She literally buys Whitney from her father who values money more than his daughter.Whitney hates him at the beginning, ignores him and fights him all the time but at the end she can't resist Clayton's charm. For Clayton Whitney is a challenge and he vows to make her fall in love with him but he falls for her nearly at the same time.
Both leading characters are very likeable and complicated. Their confrontations are very exciting and enjoyable. Judith McNaught describes the period very well and the reader can imagine being swept back in time and join the characters at their different society gatherings.
There are many Regency romances around but not all of them keep the reader turning the pages faster and faster or staying up all night. "Whitney my Love" is one of those books I will always cherish and read again and again. I recommend it to all historical romance readers.You will not be disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Please - No more "misunderstandings" 3 Nov 2009
By :-)
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm really commenting on all Judith McNaught's books, not just this one.

I am so tired of the Judith MacNaught "misunderstandings"! Please make them stop!
I have read a lot of her books and while she is undoubtably a hugely talented writer (Paradise and Perfect were wonderful) her stories have fallen into a completely predictable pattern.

The initial concept behind WML is original and interesting and then the horribly contrived misunderstandings start. At about a quarter of an inch from the end I thought here we go... just enough room for some sort of misunderstanding that will be all cleared up in time for the happy ending.

Every book of hers that I've read follows this same pattern. Don't get me wrong, I really do enjoy reading them - until the predictable misunderstandings get underway then I start to feel frustrated, the level of which is directly proportional to how contrived each misunderstanding is.

I know it must be tempting to stick to a formula that has worked before but I really wish she could create something a bit, well, more creative. Something that will really have me guessing. Shame that such a talented writer is playing it so safe that I now think there's no point in reading any more of her books because I know vaguely what's going to happen next after I've read the first third of it.

3.0 out of 5 stars good but...
This novel was entertaining for the most part although the final "conflict" was unnecessary and felt as if it should have been edited out and the story slimmed down somewhat. Read more
