I truly enjoyed this book. I
I thought I would be reading "only " about a time travel romance, and I was in fact also hooked by a tale of adventure.
The story is unreal, but with a logic which makes it totally appealing. Don't be rebuked by a kind of slow start, the plot only gets better till the end. The story unravels and mix elements of King Arthur legend, but you do'nt need to be a specialist to follow the adventures of the heroes. A good book, fun to read and lovely escapism.
All opinions are mine, I received a copy from NetGalley.

Alright, I admit, I watched the Netflix Christmas Knight and then I saw this book and saw that it had time travel and come one can you blame me? I just had to have it and give a try. Was it the same as the Netflix movie? Of course not, but did I still enjoy it? Of course I did. But did I want it to be more like the movie? Yeah, I admit that I did. But overall it was a cute story and I'm glad that I came across it and read it.
So, it all comes down to these matchmakers in our regular time that can time travel and they have been wanting to try to break the fifteenth century Penrose's family curse and they really think they got it now. So to go to the fifteenth century Glastonbury, England and get Colin, a Knight and bring him to a date on Christmas eve, our time with Madeline, a defense attorney. They meet for the briefest minute and makes an impact on each other but they both disappear out of each others life. A year later, when Madeline needs a date for her mothers wedding she asks the matchmaker again, but somehow the matchmake does a little more than provide a wedding date. She ends up traveling back to time and a lot more happens.
They end up meeting but to be together they have to go through a lot more that what they thought it was possible.
Overall the story was quick, but still really enjoyable, don't expect history because you are not going to get it. It's all about the romance and been Christmas time that's what you get. The ending was a little rushed but that was to be expected to. I enjoyed and recommend it for a quick and easy romantic read during this time of the year.
