KNIGHT OF MY DREAMS:
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lynsay
Sands comes a classic short story of a knight in need of a bride …
Lady Alice knows she is not the type to entice a man. She's
too voluptuous, too intelligent, too strong minded. Why, she even reads! But
then Jonathan, Earl of Fairley, arrives at court. Tall, dark and handsome, the
knight is any woman's dream. And he has just been ordered by the king to find a
bride … and Alice is to help him!
Jonathan has been evading his mother's matchmaking schemes
for years, so why does she insist that Lady Alice isn't for him? Alice is only
to aid in his search for a bride, yet Jonathan can't help but be distracted by
her glorious hair—the color of a sunset—and a figure that is like a lush berry
about to burst to full ripeness … Has Jonathan fallen prey to love?
