| Plot Summary of One Perfect Knight |
"A funny and magical romance. Julie Gaffney is a successful New York advertising executive who hopes to find true love one day, but after many unsuccesful dating experiences she decides that it most likely won't happen. At a Knight Times theme restaurant she touches a suit of armour and finds herself in mythical Camelot assisting the knight, Sir Lancelot. Lancelot also hopes to find true love and is developing an unhealthy passion for King Arthur's Guinevere. Another knight, Malvern, plots to overtake Camelot. Julie and Lancelot must save Camelot from being destroyed and save themselves from being killed. The author, Judith O'Brien, has woven a blend of historical fact and fantasy fiction into a sweet and easy to read story. Another enjoyable story from Judith O'Brien."
