Description

All's Faire in love and war...Connie leads a double life. During the week, she is an up–and–coming designer and dressmaker, creating sleek, elegant gowns for the wealthy elite. But come the weekend, Connie becomes Lady Constance, a member of the House Felicitous at the local Renaissance Faire, creating beautiful historical garments for herself and her friends and teaching dancing to fair attendees. Fearing loss of business should her stylish clientèle discover her extracurricular activities, Connie keeps her professional life and her faire life carefully separate. However, everything changes when she's saved from certain death by Sir Justin: a rising star in the joust and an actual knight in shining armour. Behind his mask as Sir Justin, Dominic is confident and charismatic, but out of his armour, his courage fails him, and to his own horror he finds himself accidentally pretending to be his own best friend. Suddenly, he is in Connie's life as two different men: the elusive Sir Justin who courts her over the internet and from behind a suit of armour and Justin's 'best friend' Dominic who hangs out at her apartment and helps her move. The lie only grows bigger and Sir Justin finds himself faced with the most frightening challenge he can imagine: extricating himself from his lie and winning Connie's heart as his true self.But there's something rotten afoot at the Faire, something that threatens its future, the community that has grown there, and even Sir Justin's life. Will Lady Constance find the courage to step up and risk everything to defend her friends, save the Faire, and rescue her knight?

All's Faire in love and war...Connie leads a double life. During the week, she is an up–and–coming designer and dressmaker, creating sleek, elegant gowns for the wealthy elite. But come the weekend...

A very sweet and original romance set in the faux medieval landscape of a renaissance fair.

Imaginative debut novel

Renaissance Faire's have always been a whimsical place for me so I was really looking forward to reading this book. I was not dissapointed. Anna Klein did a wonderful job of bringing the Foxingwood Renaissance Faire to life.
Her characters' dual lives especially Domimic /Sir Justin bring a warm-hearted richness to the story. I also loved the strength of our heroine Connie/Lady Constance.
The twists and turns in the story kept my attention as I eagerly read chapter after chapter to the very satisfying end.

I received an advance reader copy from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.

Enjoyable from the first page. BUT it was the interaction between Dominic and his friend Lucas that made this such a good story! Making me laugh at the scenes, especially when Lucas pulls a afk.

This is a voluntary review and I do not get paid for this review.

4 Stars! Such a cute book! I really liked this one. It wasn't like any other romance book I've read! Romance books don't usually have Renaissance fairs or main characters that are so self doubting with really low self-esteem! It's usually always super confident alpha male types! It was a refreshing change! I really loved all the mystery, the deceit, the backstabbing, the strong friendships & the strong female characters!! There is nothing that ruins a good book more than a weak female main character!! Definitely a good book and I recommend you read it!

The Modern Woman's Guide to Finding a Knight was a creative and hilarious romance taking place in an incredibly unique setting. I can honestly say I've never heard of a book set in a Renaissance Faire, so I was immediately interested in this book because of that. The mystery/intrigue aspect of this book may have been a little predictable, but it in no way took away from the story for me. Both main characters, Connie and Dominic, were well-developed and compelling, and I loved their relationship.

All in all, this book was fun and cute, and I would highly recommend it to anyone that loves a light romantic comedy.
