A warrior woman, a lonely artist, and a love story that's out of this world....
Mara, a painter, lives in a quirky artist community in downtown Buffalo, and though she loves her roommates like family, she has always felt alone. But, each night, a sexy, dark-haired woman haunts her dreams, dreams that almost help her forget the betrayal and pain she's suffered in her life. She paints to block out the bad memories, and in every painting, the woman from her dreams - as if by magic - appears.
One fateful night, Mara rescues a drowning person from the Buffalo River a beautiful woman with a serious wound who claims to be a knight from another world. The woman's name is Charaxus, and - despite her outlandish story - she inspires longings in Mara that she has never felt before. As her attraction to Charaxus grows, Mara discovers that the mysterious, brooding knight is telling the truth - and that she is the woman Mara has been dreaming about for a lifetime. But someone dangerous and dark is hunting Charaxus, and is it Mara's fate to lose the woman of her dreams forever?
A Dark and Stormy Knight is a sexy, romantic novel about overcoming past heartaches and learning to believe in happy endings. This book is set in the same world as A Knight to Remember, Forever and a Knight, and Date Knight, but it is a stand-alone book. It is part of Bridget Essex's Knight Legends Series women knights, real-world high-jinks, and love stories that transcend space and time.
A Dark and Stormy Knight (Audible Audio Edition) Bridget Essex Marina Barrett Rose and Star Press Books
Bridget Essex's Knight books are some of my very favorites, and I think A Dark and Stormy Knight is the most emotionally charged of all the novels yet. One of the things I enjoyed about it the most was its in-depth exploration of both the protagonists' personalities and how their personalities were shaped by their pasts. Both Mara and Charaxus faced immense pain in their lives, and bringing their suffering and the consequences of their suffering to light helps people who have been through similar situations feel recognized. Mara is a fantastic role model: she's been put through hell and feels unlovable, but the entire arc of the story proves that no one is unlovable. Another theme I loved is that "magic is real," and I always appreciate that in a novel. Beautifully written, beautifully imagined and characterized. It had the action and intense romance that I want from Bridget Essex's Knight books, and its pensive overtones made it stand alone well.Product details

A Dark and Stormy Knight (Audible Audio Edition) Bridget Essex Marina Barrett Rose and Star Press Books Reviews
I love these books and the world it is set in! Sometimes it can feel a little rushed, but that might be just because I like long books with lots of character development. But a woman knight in shining armor is now my favorite thing because of these books! Keep writing and I would love to see more about the world and characters.
I cannot stop reading these stories. They are so beautiful and powerful and full of love that it makes my heart ache. I have always felt a connection to tales of knights and chivalry and bravery, and now I have heroes that look like me and sound like me and have been hurt like me. As corny as it may sound, I feel less alone reading about these wonderful strong women who love other wonderful strong women. Thank you Bridget.
Full disclosure, I know the author personally, but I'm terrible about writing reviews so something has to blow me away for me to wrestle with the review feature, regardless of who wrote it. This is my favorite of Bridget's Knights so far. There is nothing I disliked, I loved all the characters, every scene in every chapter. The way Mara and Charaxus' lives intertwined, leading to the climactic reveal, was perfect.
As a sucker for love stories, this one captured my imagination. I am always on the lookout for romance not in the conventional sense. I won't give anything away, but if you are open minded, like romance but have been bored with the regular story lines, buy this book. You will be pleasantly surprised by where the book takes you.
Lighthearted, as with the first book I read, I wasn't so much into the first person perspective, but that's my personal click. I have been waiting to read her story and finally had a chance. I think I enjoyed it more than I did of the first couple, but seriously - those knights may seem idealistic and all, but if you take it as the fairy tail dream it is and let yourself be pulled in, you end up wishing one of those knights for yourself too. Will be waiting for the next additions to the series.
Is it weird that a book made me believe in true love? Ok so Ms. Essex's books are a tad predictable, but stay with me here, her knight series are magical. I don't even care that I know that the knight is somehow going to get the girl. She paints the tale so wonderfully that I can SEE the armor! I can see the fantastical wonderland and I just want to LIVE in it!
Yes fine, I will admit to trolling her twitter and facebook so I can be one of the first to know when the next in her Knight Series will be released.
Love all your 'lady knights', they're the best!
Always look forward to your books. I'm not too keen on reading about vampires but everything else, I'm game. There always seems to be a story within a story in your books. What I mean by that is what you wrote in your "Author's Note" at the end of this book. Over the years as readers, we've read and heard that writers sometimes leave a little part of themselves behind in the books that they write. I'm grateful for your kind words. I'm sorry that you had to go through what you did in your past. Our pasts don't define us.
I believe we are strong, beautiful, and unique individuals looking for our forever home-(our true loves).
Hope there is more "lady knights" books to come. Thank you Ms. Essex.
