Personally, I would recommend the book, "Wheelock’s Latin." They have a companion site that has audio files to help with pronunciation for the alphabet and vocabulary.
Latin takes years to learn, but like all things, it varies person-to-person. It’s a dead language, which means it’s stagnant; once you know it, you know it.
It can be difficult. Being a native English/Romance speaker, helps quite a bit. It’s a good language to learn if you’re interested in linguistics or anthropology, or if you want to use it as a step for learning other languages. But once again, it’s mostly a dead language so you won’t get much conversational use out of it.
I would recommend you visit the free latinum teaching site.

If you are studying by yourself, you will not get very far with Wheelock, although it is always good to study grammar as well as learning the language in a more immersion type way.
You should be able to reach a good level within the same time it would take to learn any other modern language, using modern language learning methods, such as those used on Latinum for teaching classical Latin.
