ISBN: 978-1-944810-03-0

SYNOPSIS:

Loosely inspired by the legend of Camelot, Dark Sexy Knight tells the story of dinner theater knight Colt Lane, who meets down-on-her-luck Verity Gwynn on the worst day of her life. Evicted from their home, Verity and her special-needs brother, Ryan, must find jobs or risk being separated. Colt, who is the furthest-possible thing from a white knight in real life, comes to their unlikely rescue, quickly cementing his place in Verity’s heart.

Colt has dark, deeply buried secrets that keep his smile hidden and his eyes down, which has kept people away . . . until he meets Verity, who seems immune to his gruff manners and taciturn ways. The more time Colt spends with her, the more he longs for her sweetness in his life and yearns to be the knight in shining armor she so desperately needs. Certain he will lose her if she learns the truth about his past, he must decide if he can trust her with his yesterday in order to build a beautiful tomorrow.

**Contemporary Romance. Due to profanity, mild violence and very strong sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.**

All novels in the ~a modern fairytale~ collection are written as fundraisers.

REVIEW:

I'm a big fan of Katy Regnery. I think my favorite is NEVER LET YOU GO, but DARK SEXY KNIGHT is a close second.

As soon as Colt sees Verity standing looking lost and alone at the job fair, he knows she is going to be trouble. He can't seem to stop himself from walking across the room to talk to her.

Verity is at the end of her rope. Since losing both of her parents and the family farm, it's down to her to take care of her older brother, a mentally disabled, thirty-something-old man. If they don't get a job soon they'll be in trouble. Already she is dodging the manager at the cheap and dirty motel they are staying at. The challenge is that she needs a job with her brother so she can be there if he needs her.

When Colt hears her story he immediately decides to help. Since he is there representing the place he works, a medieval knight dinner show, he approaches the HR person that came with him and talks them up.

Colt gets even more involved with Verity when he drives her home from the job fair he finds that she and her brother have been kicked out of their motel room. He feels like there is nothing left to do but take her home with him. It is at the motel that Verity gets a look at what Colt has to fight to keep under control every day - his rage. When a couple of low-lifes start giving Verity's brother a hard time, Colt goes to defend him. After beating them pretty badly, it's Verity that calms him down enough to get in the car and drive home. Colt's worried that Verity will be afraid of him, but it's just the opposite. She feels safe and protected. No one has ever taken care of her like that before.

It doesn't take long for Verity and her brother to become an important part of Colt's life, but his past makes a reappearance and threatens the happiness they have together. Do either of them have courage to make it work? Is love worth the pain?

DARK SEXY KNIGHT is a one-sitting read. It's a sweet romance with super hot scenes. In addition to the sexual tension it includes a great look at family as both Colt and Verity are caring for family members with special needs. You don't have to read the other two books in the series since these are all standalone, but I suggest you go back and read THE VIXEN AND THE VET and NEVER LET YOU GO.
