Goodreads Blurb:
The bloodline of Morgan Le Fey taints Merci, keeping her on the edge between light and dark. The goddess’s wicked trap springs shut, leaving both Drake and Merci racing against the clock. Passions ignite once again, but are they too late to plan a future or will they be torn from each other?
This time for eternity.
My Review:
I LOVE the concept of a modern day Arthur and his knights
(I’ve always had a secret crush on him, shhh). This is a great start to a series
that is magical, sensual, exciting and an all-around great story that any fans
of the genre will enjoy!
Merci is a beautiful woman that’s also tough as nails. Caught between light and dark due to her heritage. She does not want anyone to know about the darkness within her. Including the man she loves. The only man for her in this life and the next.
Drake is one hot knight! He’s another one that is as tough as tough can be. He comes off a cold, a bit cruel and unfeeling… But I feel he has the right to. After all, he’s the reincarnation of Merlin and his powers have been bound for a long time. That’s a form of torture, undeserving at that. All because of an evil malicious female that (in my eyes) just has nothing better to do. He loves a woman, a very special woman, but is afraid to get too close to her because of the evil wench always at his back. Can love conquer all in this case or is it never meant to be for these two tortured souls?

Beloved Wizard is a quick short read that leaves the reader
wanting more in the very best of ways. I look forward to what’s to come in the
rest of the series and to so much more of Arthur and his knights ;)

Arthur and his Knights are back and ready to kick ass!
What’s worse than a pissed off Knight? Colin Hennessy.
A war is brewing which suits Colin just fine. Shape shifter, Knight and quick tempered Irishman is a volatile combination. Colin remembers vividly his past life as Sir Kay and with it all that he loved and lost.
Juliet Boyd moves among societies rich and pampered, but she holds within her a terrible secret. One Vance Hollister is determined to exploit. Mordred is back in a new skin. Evil has a new name and Vance Hollister plans on bringing the war onto a new battlefield.
Colin and Juliet are unprepared for the flare of attraction that ignites
between them from across a moonlit parking lot. Dare she open herself and
expose her cursed gift? Can he save Juliet from Vance’s twisted manipulations?
Or will he lose his second chance at love? A showdown between good and evil is
coming to a head with Juliet and Colin right in the middle. What’s worse than a pissed off Knight? Colin Hennessy.

My Review:
A great addition to the Knights of Excalibur series! The Knights
Druid keeps your heart at a constant fast pace with all of its action, sex (M/M,
M/F/M and a little M/M action) and excitement. A definite must read for any
fans of the genre!
Colin is one hard man to read! He’s an Irishman that is
tough and takes nothing from NO ONE! Very short tempered, but has a huge heart.
His past has scarred him deep, soul deep. Love lost and missed is just a part
of what has made him into the cold person he is today. But Juliet does
something to him. Something he is unsure if he should explore any further…
Juliet is a beautiful and VERY wealthy woman that has much
more to her than even she is aware of. Not looking for attraction or love. She
tries to ignore the feelings this cold Irishman brings forth. But no one can
escape what fate has planned.
Oh how I enjoy this series! So far each couple that has
gotten together has been an incredible match. There are two that I find myself
REALLY wanting the story for. But I’ll just keep that to myself and hope, for
now. I look forward to what Shannan will bring us in the next of the series.
Bring on them sexy knights :)

Review The King's Lady (Knights of Excalibur #3) by Shannan Albright

Goodreads Blurb:
Arthur Penner is more than happy to aid a lady in need of
help, especially if the woman is targeted by his nemesis Vance Hollister. The
fact the lady in question turns out to be not only a powerful witch, but a
gorgeous red head with a wealth of curves that don’t quit? Even better.
What he isn’t prepared for is the discovery that the woman just happens to be
his reincarnated Queen Gwenivere, and worse, she has no memory of who he is.
His well-ordered life is crumbling around him as yet another surprise turns up in the form of his reincarnated sister. It seems the past is swallowing him whole, forcing him to let go of previous betrayals and trust once more.
Gwen McAllister finds herself between a rock and a hard spot. Drawn to the quiet strength and confidence of Arthur. It isn’t until her memories are savagely restored by a vengeful goddess that she realizes who she is and the bitter betrayal she caused. Even her familiar, a mouthy Himalayan named Salt seems to be against her, demanding she trust the very man she destroyed.
A new threat is rising, one which will plunge the world they know into darkness. To defeat an old enemy they must depend on each other and learn to forgive. A tall order and time is running out. Can they let go of the past and embrace the promise of a future or will they lose everything in the ultimate battle between good and evil?

My Review:
Shannan Albright creates an exciting,
original and erotic modern tale of King Arthur and his knights that has an
awesome kick to it and is a real page turner. Each and every character was
amazing, realistic and loveable. This is the third book in the Knights of
Excalibur series and can be read as a stand-alone. But I REALLY recommend
reading them all. It’s a fun series for all fans of the genre :)
Gwen and Arthur are fated to be
together, forever. But deceit and neglect brings it all to a halt and changes
various aspects and feelings for all involved. Packed full of action, intense
sex (M/M, M/M/F and M/F) scenes and tons of fantastical magic and an ending
that leaves you wanting much more!
I look forward to more of this series and MUCH more from its author.
