Review Card & Book Review – Love At First Knight By Megan Clawson

She’s no damsel in distress, and he’s certainly not wearing shining armour. But one knight can change everything…

Daisy Hastings has always thought she was born in the wrong era. So when she bags a summer job at the Tower of London helping to run their Knight school, it feels like a step in the right direction.

Theodore ‘Teddy’ Fairfax is a loose cannon. A disgraced distant relative of the royal family, he’s tall, dark and now (begrudgingly) helping with the Tower of London’s summer programme – and there’s nowhere he’d like to be less.

When Teddy’s oath to be an obstruction almost gets Daisy fired, she declares war. But as the two cross swords, they start to discover they both need a little rescuing…

And that maybe, just maybe, love can bloom, even on a battlefield…

About The Author

My Review

“Love at First Knight” focuses on Daisy Hastings, who has struggled with anxiety and shyness for years. She still lives with her parents, feeling at ease mostly with family, friends, and during her live-action role-playing (LARPing) sessions. When a summer position at the Tower of London’s Knight School opens up, Daisy takes the opportunity, stepping out of her comfort zone into an exciting new environment. There, she meets Theodore ‘Teddy’ Fairfax, a disgraced royal and her polar opposite, whom she is tasked with helping.

I was intrigued by the book’s premise, but I found the character development somewhat lacking. It was interesting to learn about the world of LARPing, which seems like a fun activity, and I appreciated the warmth of Daisy’s family. However, the romantic relationship between Daisy and Teddy didn’t quite work for me; it felt underdeveloped and could have used more depth.
