A Knight in Shining Armor

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 first read this book about 20 years ago...and it has been one of my top favorite books ever since. I have lost track of how many times I've read this book and my recent re-read only renewed my love for this story once again.
This book is such an easy read, the story is like a river that never stops flowing and keeps the reader engaged throughout.
I was so shocked when I read the letter from the author at the end about what this book was actually about! I never read that letter before in all these years and was completely floored!

I’ll be honest, when I first began this novel I could feel my eyes rolling almost on auto-pilot, but I kept reading and I soon found myself sucked into the story of Dougless and Nicholas.

It may be soapy, it may be sappy, it’s definitely far fetched, but I loved this wonderful little beach read. Excellent pallet cleanser after the heavy books I’ve read. Well worth the read!
