Hard Day's Knight

Kate MacAlister's outlandish and outrageously fun romance sparkles even more, thanks to Karen White's astute humor and timing. Her range of voices and accents is as impressive as her emotional depth, and she clearly revels in the many moments of hilarity and sentimentality in this lighthearted adventure. Weary of romantic disappointments, unemployed software engineer Pepper Marsh has agreed to accompany her cousin--and her impossibly troublesome cat--to a Renaissance fair. Pepper had dreams of being swept off her feet by a chivalrous knight. Instead, she finds herself nearly trampled and rescued by Englishman Walker McPhail, a sidelined jouster, and the most infuriatingly sexy man she's ever met. Walker shrewdly captures both Pepper's exasperation and enormous heart, making this story thoroughly engaging. B.E.K. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine
