About this ebook

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).

This was a very entertaining book. I read it in less than 24 hours and it has all you can possibly want form a book. Here is a young woman that never seem to do anything right in the eyes of her family especially in love cases. She is drawn to the men that are bad for her either theives, murders, or ones that are so vain she cannot ever seen the true beauty that she posseses. She is a school teacher that is treated really bad by a man that put her in the bottom of the barrel and uses her and abuses her. He leaves her in a cemetary in England and while she is crying she pray for a knight in shining armor and out appears a Very handsom man dressed in 16th century armor and that is just the beginning to know what happens read the book. I laughed in this book and tears even approched me. It is a great read.
