Lady’s Knight

A raucously funny and romantic queer feminist romp through the England of medieval legend, following the daughter of a blacksmith who dreams of glory, and the gentlelady who convinces her to chase it. A Knight’s Tale meets the Lady Janies series with a dash of The Great!

Gwen is sick of hiding—hiding the fact that she’s taken over her father’s blacksmithing duties, hiding her attraction to girls, hiding her yearning for glory as a knight.

Meanwhile, Lady Isobelle of Avington, queen bee of the castle, has never once considered hiding who she is—until now. She’s been chosen as the grand prize in the Tournament of Dragonslayers, to be given to whichever knight can claim her hand. And for the first time in her life, she can’t talk her way out of trouble.

When Isobelle discovers Gwen’s knightly ambitions, they hatch a plan together—Gwen will joust in the tournament, disguised as Sir Gawain. Winning means freedom for Isobelle, and glory for Gwen. Losing means… Well, let’s not go there.

One thing’s for sure: falling in love was never the plan. But the best laid plans…are often trampled all over by dragons.
