Description

New York Times bestselling author Jude Deveraux will capture your heart with this miraculous time slip romance between a modern woman and a literal knight.

Dougless Montgomery has tried everything to achieve the perfect balance between self-sufficient and sexy, independent and agreeable—exactly the kind of girl she thinks a man would want. Still, she finds herself weeping upon a cold tombstone in an English church, rejected and abandoned by her boyfriend on a vacation she planned. Suddenly, Nicholas Stafford, Earl of Thornwyck appears before her but according to his tombstone, he died in 1564.

Despite their shock and the countless differences between a 20th-century girl and a 16th-century nobleman, Dougless and Nicholas are drawn together by a bond that defies reason. Dougless has finally found what she’s been searching for: someone who does not seek to change her, who finds her perfect, fascinating, just as she is.

But neither is prepared for the strength of their ties to the past…or the grand adventure that lies before them. Hailed worldwide as one of the most romantic novels of all time, A Knight in Shining Armor is “the epitome of every woman’s fantasy” (Daily Herald, Chicago).

    I laughed, I cried, I blushed, my heart ached… it had the enchanting intrigue of a more mature Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian star-crossed lovers storyline of sorts brought to life in “modern” 1980s and Elizabethan sixteenth century. A marvelously enjoyable read!!

    This isn’t my usual “read”, but I loved it. It’s whimsical, sometimes annoying, but overall, a fun story. This is the second book I’ve read by this author, and I plan to read more. A great escape!

    I really really love this story, and always come back to this book every year or so. That said, I wish there was more detail. While it would make it quite a thick book if there was, I felt like certain parts were rushed in order to move through the plot. It doesn’t keep me from reading it though!
