HER DARK KNIGHT

Romance Historical

For seven hundred years Christien Chevalier has stood beside the treasure and kept the world safe from the apocalypse. For seven hundred years he has mourned the loss of his one true love, Madelaine de Flandres. Madelaine was the one woman that he could not save. Christien has protected and hidden the treasure of the Templar Knights despite his heartache and he will continue to stand strong until the key can be found and hidden away too. Little did Christien know that the key to opening the seals that would begin the apocalypse would not come in the form of metal, but in the shapely form of his love resurrected back to life.

Madelaine Alexander just landed the job of her life. She now has enough money to keep her father in his nursing home and keep herself off the streets. If she can keep her mouth shut at work. Her new boss, Giselle is a witch. What part of HR equals being an errand girl? Now she has been sent on an errand that has nothing to do with her position and straight into the arms of a very wealthy and very sexy nightclub owner. Christian Chevalier is more than just another hot guy, from the first time she met him he has been haunting her dreams. Dreams that have been as terrifying as they have been happy; that make Lainie fear that she is losing her mind. How can a dream be so real? How can a girl fall in love with a man that she just met?

This book was as dynamic as it was romantic. I loved the way that author Sharon Cullen weaved the dreams into the story. Mixing the past with the present is always tricky, and Cullen did not make any mistakes. I thought that the story flowed along perfectly. I fell in love with Christien and felt for his plight. He suffered a great loss and stumbled his way through to Lainie's heart. I was very happy with the fact that he wasn't just Mr. Perfect as so many leading men are portrayed. He made mistakes, he took matters into his own hands, and he messed things up again.

I found this real to life quality gave his character true depth that he otherwise might have been lacking. Lainie was a fantastic heroine. She was strong enough not to bend to Christien's will; yet she was also in a very strange situation. Cullen also wrote her to be a real woman and not just another love story bimbo without a brain. I was absolutely fascinated with the legend of the Templar treasure. All my questions were definitely not answered by the end of the book and I am hoping for sequel to set that to rights. From the beginning to its unquestionably stunning conclusion HER DARK KNIGHT is a book to remember!

SUMMARY

Madelaine Alexander is on a mission. When her boss sends her to the hottest nightclub in town to meet with the owner, she won't be deterred, even if that means standing in line for fifty-eight minutes in torturous heels while she'd rather be home in her pj's with a bowl of popcorn. A Knight of the Templar, Christien Chevalier was given immortality along with the responsibility of protecting the treasure of the Templars. He's been unwavering in his task for centuries until his one true loveโ€”who died seven hundred years agoโ€”shows up in his club, demanding his attention. Christien couldn't protect Madelaine when they first fell in love. She was married to a lord and he was simply a knight. Now, through some unknown miracle, she stands before him again and they have a second chance. But Christien fears that Madelaine is being used as a pawn in a dangerous game, a game of good versus evil that could affect all of mankind...
