Great romance book by a great author. Loved the story and plot line. The cover is beautiful and will definitely read from this author again

This was a super cute palette cleanser. It was fun and farfetched and what I love about romcoms. A really cute summer read for young adults or adults looking to stay away from super spicy reads.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to be able to read and review this book!

Amazing characters. I had such a fun time.

I was quite intrigued by the synopsis of this book! It was a mostly fun exploration of young romance, with enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and royalty tropes. It's a slow burn, with a quirky, anxiety prone lead female lead and a broody, grumpy male lead. I loved the family dynamics and all the nerd culture references. It's a very slow burn but that worked for the characters. The descriptions of the Tower of London and the LARPing culture were great and spot on. I could visualize it. Some classic romantic tropes and set up but with a modern twist and unique setting. I liked how we learned more about both characters as the story progressed and how there was an arc of growth for Daisy. Teddy had a bit less of an arc of growth, as the non POV character but it was lovely to see his prickly shell slowly peel away as he got closer to Daisy. I liked that we got an epilogue and I felt this was a good HEA/HFN ending.
Cute, entertaining, kept my attention.

I thought this was very good and I will have to add this to the shop shelves. Thank you for the chance for us to review.

Such a fun romance! I really enjoyed this, it was a quick summer read, great for a brain break! Rooted for the characters and loved this from the get go.

I try so hard to like this author because of the unique perspective she brings to her stories, but I just CANNOT. Her FMCs are so insanely two dimensional-the stereotypical “quirky girl” who is a bit of a mess and whom no one else understands but the MMC. The story was as frustrating as the previous and I wasn’t able to finish.

First of all thank you for approving my request!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The authors writing style had me hooked throughout this book.

I didn't want it to end, a book I really couldn't put down.

Thank you NetGalley and Avon Books UK for this ARC.

Love at First Knight is the second novel by a local-to-me author, and I also managed to snag a signed copy from The Works with sprayed edges on release day!

I had high hopes for this novel; alas, it ended up being a jusy-okay story. In short, this is a modern day story with Pride and Prejudice vibes, where a young woman named Daisy from rural Lincolnshire goes to London for a summer job at the Tower of London, where she meets a Viscount (Theodore Fairfax, nephew to the King), whom she immediately loathes. Nevertheless, she gets paired to work to work with him, which only ends in disaster.

Whilst being marketed as a love story, I felt like this story was more about Daisy facing her fears and becoming the strong young woman she was meant to be, with the help of her supportive family back home, her new eccentric flat mate, an archivist she meets on her first day, and of course the Viscount, Teddy. There are vague hints at an almost-love triangle, and a few chaste kisses on-page, as well as some confessions that felt like they were straight out of a Jane Austen novel, but it didn't quite hit the spot for me as a romance novel, and I found myself skimming parts of the story from time to time.

There are extensive descriptions of LARPing and other nerd culture elements, which isn't my thing, but I can imagine someone who is into it would like this story.

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 from me.

Pure escapism! A very far fetched tale of knights, role play and handsome men, a bit too Mills and Boon for me, but great fun.
But for all its apparent predictably, I had no idea of how it would end! Well done, Ms Clawson…

Thank you to NetGalley for providing this book for review.

Although I enjoyed the first book in this series a bit more I still adored the setting and character development. Megan is able to provide such authentic storytelling due to her own experiences living in England and it makes the reading experience so enjoyable.

I was super lucky to get an arc of this back before it was published. However I just couldn’t get into the story and I actually ended up DNF-ing it at only 7%. I still really wanted to read it though, so I decided to try the audio instead.

I still struggled to get through the first part - while I appreciate the anxiety representation and how difficult it must’ve been for the author to write about it, I found it a little annoying. But once I got past that and we were introduced to the love interest, I was invested.

The slow burn in this is slow but so worth it. I really loved the banter between Daisy and Teddy, and how their relationship gradually grew. Seeing their growth throughout the book, especially Daisy, was really heartwarming, and I loved how she finally accepted herself at the end.

As with the author’s first book, the descriptions of the Tower of London and the settings are amazing. You can tell how much love she has the Tower and it really brings it to life. And you can’t not mention the LARPing, which I have to admit I find a little cringe but it was cute in the context of the story, and I did enjoy seeing all of the characters get fully into it.

I think if you like a good slow burn romance with banter and fun side characters, then this is definitely a book you should pick up.

(Thank you NetGalley for an arc of this book in return for an honest review.)

Though a classic romantic set-up, I liked the new twist that was put on it. Daisy is a well-rounded out main character, who is relatable for so many young women. Her fear of the ‘outside’ world and the fantasies she makes in her head to help her get through the day. She pushes herself to get out of her comfort zone - in turn meeting our main love interest, Freddy.

However, the story isn’t just about the blossoming love between the two of them, it is about Daisy and Freddy’s own character development. I really enjoyed the fantastical element of the story, it was a pleasure to be sucked into a whole new world. This was a comfort read if I ever saw one.

Due to health issues cannot write a proper review now even if I enjoyed this book. as it's well plotted, entertaining, with an intriguing romance, and I liked the storytelling
A more extensive review will follow
Recommended.Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mine

A really light-hearted and fun read. Medieval fantasy, a really fun read. I will definitely seek out more of this author's work.

This is Megan's second book and, on reading the notes at the end, she seemed concerned that the second book is a whole different ballgame. And I believe that may well be true. Because, this second novel is a triumph and is just so much slicker than the first. There are no loose ends, no begging the question. Everything works and it is glorious.

If I had any criticism, I'd have edited parts a little differently and there are a few moments where the terminology goes awry, but that's nit-picking.

I loved it. I read it in one sitting and I loved it. More please!!

This is a truly delightful read for a non-traditional historical romantic comedy. It was a perfect length and I didn't want to put it down. I'm anxiously watching for more!

The book excels in its vivid descriptions and well-researched historical details, which create an immersive reading experience. The chemistry between the protagonists is palpable, and their banter adds a delightful touch to the narrative.

However, the plot can be somewhat predictable, and some secondary characters lack depth. Additionally, the pacing occasionally drags, making certain sections feel longer than necessary.

Overall, Love at First Knight is an enjoyable read for fans of historical romance, offering a pleasant escape into a world of knights and noblewomen, even if it doesn’t break new ground in the genre.

A good follow up to Megan’s first book and nice to see that the main characters from that appeared in this one too. Good characters in this one and I enjoyed the storyline.

The story in emojis: 🛡️⚔️💕

My Top 3 things from this book:
•Bobble
•LARPing
•Tower of London setting

This is a really sweet story and although it has romance in it, there was so much more story to it with friends, family and life experiences.

I really enjoyed the Tower of London setting and trying to visualise each part as it was described. I also enjoyed the LARPing, as it was a bit unusual!

Of course my favourite character was Bobble, I wish we had had more of her. She was a unique and special person and sounded just like a friend you would want to have.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2
