Search - A Knight in Shining Armor

BOok was entertaining, but had one of the most annoying heroines ever. She lets men run all over her and falls in love easily. This is another story about the Montgomerys, but she doesn't seem to be a part of the family at all.

Good romance, but a little too "sweet" for me. I like darker, more intense.

A great time travel book about an American woman stranded alone in England in 1988 and a knight from the 1500's who mysteriously appears always when the woman is in distress. Enjoyable, great romance, mystery and picture of the times in 1500's England. Not overdone on sex. Worth the read.

A great romp! If you like the idea of time travel and "fitting in" in an alien world, you will love this!

This is my FAVORITE BOOK of all time. You feel all of the emotions right along with the characters. This was the first romance novel I read and it has had me hooked to this day.

Simply put its a great story. I give it 6 stars!!!!!

I loved this book!!!!! time travel at its best when two fall in love with centuries separating them. fate returns them to love all over again

Nothing like this ever happens to me, but then if it did I'd have a heart attach! Great fantasy and unforgettable lovers.

This story is so good I have read it many times over the years. A must read if you like Jude Deveraux books.

Great blend of fantasy and romance!

I don't usually like romance-type books, but found this one quite readable.

Abandoned by cruel fate, lovely, throughly modern Dougless Montgomery lay weeping upon a cold tombstone in an English Church. Suddenly, as if in answer to her prayers,the most extraordinary man appeared.. He ws Nicholas
Stafford, Earl of Thomwyck... and according to his tombstone he died in 1564. Tall, broad of shoulder, attired in gleaming silver and gold, he was magnificent. Drawn to his side by a bond so sudden and compelling it overshadowed reason. Dougless knew that Nicholas was nothing less than a miracle; a man who would not seek to change her, who found her perfect, fascinating, just the way she was. Yet she could not imagine how strong were the chains that tied them to the past....or the grand adventure that lay before them....

SUPERB time-travel romance!!! Loved it!!!

I know someone has already posted what the book is about, so I'll skip that part.....
I was browsing the discussion forum and saw that this one is recommended by several readers in a thread. I got it and to tell you how good, I lost my copy at a restaurant when I was only halfway through it. I went the same day to the library to hunt it down.
I didn't get bogged down with the history side. Much more of a love story and intriguing. You can relate to the female main character - we all know someone like this if not the reader. :)
The ending was not the predictable, overly sweet one.

I have read this book 3 times now and I have to say it definitly was a story I will never forget. I couldn't put this book down and loved it every time I have read it. One of the best time travel romance books ever.

I loved this book...such a sweet love story, I really hated for this book to end, but the way she ended it was great! I loved it!
