A Knight in Shining Armor

A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR: Jude Deveraux: Pocket Books: Romance: 388 pgs.

Douglass Montgomery feels that she can never do anything right compared to her perfect family. She is excited when she finally finds a man she feels proud to take home to her parents but on their dream vacation to Europe he abandons her with no money and no passport to get back home. She is brokenhearted and all alone in an old English church when Nicholas Stafford, Earl of Thornwyck, appears. She had wanted a knight in shining armor to come save her but she didn't bargain for one that insisted he was from the sixteenth-century.

I really enjoyed this time travel romance. The characters were great. Douglass and Nicholas have a love stronger than time but it takes them a while to discover that. Be warned that there were some adult situations and because Nicholas had such a womanizing reputation, many references to what a scoundrel he was, but you still had to love him.
