The British Knight (The Royals Book 4) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 6,485 ratings

When I’m offered the chance to leave New York to live in London for three months, I can’t pack my suitcase fast enough.

As soon as I touch down I’m obsessing over red telephone boxes, palaces and all the black cabs. But my favorite place is the tube. It’s wall-to-wall hot British men in suits.

When I’m offered a temporary job working for a barrister, I say, sign me up. On my first commute into work, it’s a total accident when I lose my balance and fall against the most handsome Brit alive. He’s as charming as James Bond and as suave as Mr. Darcy. I want to lick tea from his hard abs and listen to his accent all night long.

Turns out Mr. Handsome is my new boss. And his attitude isn’t as hot as his gorgeous face, broad shoulders and tight ass. He’s brooding, short-tempered and the most arrogant man I’ve ever met.

As we’re fighting, out of nowhere he kisses me. And I’m pretty sure I see fireworks over Big Ben and hear God Save the Queen. I wasn’t looking for the fairytale but I might have found my knight in shining armor.

The problem is he lives an ocean away.

A stand-alone, enemies to lovers, grumpy sunshine romance.

    The British Knight is book four in The Royals series by Louise Bay. This is my very first book by Louise and can easily be read as a stand alone. I am now an official fan of this author. I adored this book. I adored watching these two characters sort out their lives and find their HEA’s. It was beautiful, it was sexy, and it was amazing!

    Violet King was badly hurt by her ex-boyfriend in college. She had thought she was in love but things definitely didn’t turn out the way she thought they would. Ever since then, she’s been in a sort of limbo, working waitress jobs, but never staying long in one job. She refuses herself to be romantically involved as well. She has one night stands with no emotional entanglements. But, after her last job ended, her sister in law convinces her to go to London and she would help her to find work there. As it turned out, she quickly got a job working for a barrister doing administrative work. It’s a chance to change her life, to finally cut ties with all the memories in New York and start fresh.

    Alexander Knightley is a barrister in London. His life is his job. He works pretty much every moment except when he’s asleep, which isn’t much. He’s broody and rude and most people are afraid of him. His office is filled with stacks of paper since no one has the courage to go in there to try to organize things. His office has decided he needs an assistant and they hired one, Violet. But Violet brings a whole new challenge into the office. Because he can’t stop thinking about her, wanting to touch her.

    “She was my own personal sun.”

    They really tried to ignore the pull between them but it was too great, too strong. Violet was only in London temporarily. Could they just live in the moment and enjoy each other until it’s time for her to leave?

    “Surprising Violet, making her happy, felt like the biggest achievement in my week. I’d never experienced anything like it outside of the law.”

    Alex is a workaholic. Violet is afraid to let someone into her heart again. She can’t allow herself to be hurt again. Violet is able to show Alex that there is more to life than inside his office. Alex is able to give Violet back her confidence. To help her to finally look to the future and start some dreams of her own. Together, these two were just magic.

    Since I’ve never read this author before, I was blindsided with how much I fell in love with this book, with Alexander and Violet. I loved the way they helped each other to grow. How they showed each other what love really was. Alex’s little gestures melted my heart. It might have taken him awhile to figure things out but it was wonderful. And I loved watching Violet blossom and finally start looking to her future and making plans.

    This was such a good book, I loved everything about it. I will definitely book looking through Louise’s other work. The next book in this series is called The Earl of London and is Darcy’s book. I can’t wait to read it.

    “She was my priority, my future, my destiny. It was all her.”

    Violet needed a change in her life. Darcy suggests going back to London with her and she can spend a few months thinking about what she wants to do, Darcy sets up an interview for Violet to work as a assistant to a Barrister.

    Alex is highly driven and career focused. He strives to be the best and follow in his fathers footsteps. But that drive is what made his wife decide she wanted out of the marriage.

    When Alex meets Violet he is drawn to her like a magnet. Violet figures she is only going to be in London for a few months, what could possibly happen in a few months.

    I did enjoy the story but felt like they should have communicated more so there wasn't any misconceptions. Otherwise a good addition to the series.

    Louise Bay is one of my “go to” Authors!! I love her writing and the powerful, sexy alpha men in ALL her books. The British Knight is no exception!! I have yet to meet one that has not absolutely stolen my heart. So, grab a drink, send the kiddos to grandmas and pull up your seat for another great read!

    Violet is reeling from a breakup with her longtime douche of a college boyfriend. Violet discovered that the company they had both worked endlessly to create was only registered in his name. Not only that but she found out her was banging her roommate too! So now the company was set to go public and she had been completely overlooked for her work.

    Betrayed and disillusioned Violet was in a funk. So, when the offer to work in London for three months popped up she jumped at the chance. A fresh start, a little British man-candy and time to figure out what she wanted to do in life. So off to London she goes to a new job and new adventure!

    You know how the first day on a new job is…expect the unexpected! That’s exactly what happens to Violet. Taking the tube into work she quickly finds her British man candy. Her eyes devour the sexy, mystery man standing next to her. And then it happens, she falls into him as she drops her cell with directions to her new job. Lucky for her “sexy stranger” catches her and is going to the same place she is. So sans phone they take off for he office.

    Okay, a little about Alexander Knightley. Knightley is a barrister (lawyer) who is following in his dad’s footsteps. Frequently referred to as “Alexander the Great”, so they are pretty large footsteps to fill. Not only is he a workaholic but he is grumpy, anti-social and puts the fear in folks he works with.

    Now imagine Violet’s surprise when her new boss takes her to meet the person she will be working for! It’s none other than the sexy stranger she met on the tube. It’s actually really funny how things start out with the two of them. Alexander is adamant that he doesn’t need the help while Violet is just as determined and eager to get to work for him. Let’s just say Alexander doesn’t make it easy for her but she can dish it back to him as good as he does to her. The banter between these two will keep you in stitches.

    The constant sexual tension that pulses between them keeps everything so pent up. But holy moly in a moment of unabashed and uncontrollable passion do things ever explode. The line has been crossed now so There is no turning back. Let me tell you the sexy times will not disappoint!!!

    I love the influences they had on each other. Violet and her live in the moment slowly proving there was more to life than work. While at the same time Alexander was showing Violet how she wasn’t stuck in life and could open herself up to new experiences.

    The British Knight is an absolute page turner!! There are so many things about this book I loved but most of all this book is pure romance!!

    4*5 Sweet Sexy Stars.

    Gahhhh I have to say I flippin loved all things Alex & Violet from just the blurb & couldn’t wait to loose myself once again, in the life, love & location that Louise so magically breathes into her stories. A British Knight gave me my sassy but slightly lost American girl & one over bearing, abrupt but extremely lonely Brit. The mix was as perfect as a G&T with a slice of something zesty, as they brought my senses alive & left me with a thirst for more!

    Their banter, chemistry & connection was really well written & saw their characters come to life in the most gorgeous of ways. From smart mouths & sassy retorts, to whispered declarations & a burning need for more, their journey was emotionally charged in all the right places.

    I truly loved how the pace was set. Add the backdrop & depth of detail, it gave me a real glimpse into their world, their wants & their ultimate needs & desires. I hate angst for angst sake & I was so damn happy this didn’t have it. This was a sweet easy read where heartache & hurt was well balanced with vulnerability & strength. It had the perfect amount of angst that allowed the story to flow without me hating on Alex or Violet which had me smiling, because I honestly loved them both loads.

    Overall this is a fab new stand alone by Louise Bay. For me it is a the perfect addition to this wonderful series. Yes it can be read independently, but one of things I seriously FLOVE is the way LB interlinks the characters & countries within each book & leading couple. Its like hooking up with old friends & seriously can’t get enough. I can whole heartedly recommend you start with the King of Wall Street, so you can fall in love with this whole series & gorgeous & addictive line up.
