One moment Dorothy “Dee” Day is
complaining about her lot in life and wishing she was
elsewhere. Suddenly, she’s someplace far away and over the
rainbow. Sir Wolfred of Camelot is a true knight in every
since; he’s also shocked to find a strangely dressed woman
who is more than willing to him the way he is. His strong
sense of duty is put to the test by his eager, frisky new
lady love. Bound by the codes of chivalry and honor,
Wolfred refuses to endanger Dee. What he quickly learns is
that Dee is a modern day woman and more than capable of
saving the day if needed.
Throw in biker leather with a little
BDSM, paranormal kink, and a smattering of hot guy-on-guy
action, in a place that resembles the red-light version of a
classic B-movies horror fantasy set mixed in with a few
golden-age screen tidbits, and you just might get an idea of
what A Knight to Remember is like—or not.
Without giving away more (and trust me when I say I tried to
tease while dancing around naming names), I must insist that
you read Mimi Riser’s insanely candid, wildly funny tale
that’s narrated by a woman who remains nameless throughout
the first installment. This doesn’t make her first-person
observations less raunchy or risqué. Ms. Riser has patented
her own brand of humor in her writing.
The hero is that perfect blend of tragic, noble, and
unbridled sex; a contrast to wacky villains and the hottest
oddities this side of fantasy. Lastly, the plot didn’t
generate much heft, but I’m the first to admit it wasn’t
needed. The fabric of A Knight to Remember is
all in the telling, and the “Lights! Camera! Action!” If
it’s covered in glitter, rhinestones, and studs (with a few
mysterious kitsch stains here and there) then so much the
better. |
