Her Pretty Knight

Sapphic Lady Knights, Book 1

De: Mariah Rae Birch

Narrado por: Kimberly M. Wetherell

An addictive forbidden romance between a fake princess and her bodyguard....

After losing everything ten years ago, Sir Galeon has dedicated her life to serving her kingdom as a knight. When the prince entrusts her with guarding his soon-to-be bride in his arranged marriage, Galeon does not expect to have her heart captured by the confounding princess.

Della has more than one deadly secret. Not only is she pretending to be Princess Cordelia, but she is also a witch in a world where magic is as dangerous as it is illegal. Her ability to manipulate death is the reason she is here, and her only way out. The last thing she wants is an overly loyal knight following her everywhere.
Della knows that Galeon can never learn her secrets. And Galeon knows the prince’s bride is entirely off-limits.

As reluctant proximity turns to tentative trust, initial attraction becomes burning desire. What should have been simple becomes terribly complicated.

Yet nothing will stop Della from fulfilling the bargain she made to save her sister. Not even an inconveniently timed baby phoenix or rumors of false identity. Not even murdered corpses in the library or a jealous prince.

Not even a pretty knight.

The first in a series of stand-alone stories set in the same world, this slow burn steamy queer romantasy is inspired by classic fairy tales and Arthurian legend, where the shining knight is a scarred woman, the princess is also the witch, and the prince is anything but charming.

This story contains grief, violence, explicit language, and a guaranteed HEA.

Quaint and sweet

The story was heart warming and quaint. A true tale of forbidding love and secrets, and lies, but with a good ending.

Great find

I was looking for something like this, loved it. we dont find sapphic novels that are not contemporary. loved the action In it too.

It's cute 🤗

It took me a minute to get into the actual narration, as she makes some weird choices for character voices, but the story is cute. The world building is minimal, which is a shame because her take on magic, kingdoms and crimes is truly a fresh take. The story focuses on the developing relationship between the two POV characters, and the plot and intrigue that's happening in the background is sacrificed. Another shame, because it's so incredibly intriguing. It's a cute story overall, but it really could've been an epic with a shift in focus. Still, worth a read for light romantasy fans 4/5
