Madelaine Alexander is on a mission. When her boss sends her to the hottest nightclub in town to meet with the owner, she won't be deterred, even if that means standing in line for fifty-eight minutes in torturous heels while she'd rather be home in her pj's with a bowl of popcorn.

A Knight of the Templar, Christien Chevalier was given immortality along with the responsibility of protecting the treasure of the Templars. He's been unwavering in his task for centuries until his one true love—who died seven hundred years ago—shows up in his club, demanding his attention.

Christien couldn't protect Madelaine when they first fell in love. She was married to a lord and he was simply a knight. Now, through some unknown miracle, she stands before him again and they have a second chance. But Christien fears that Madelaine is being used as a pawn in a dangerous game, a game of good versus evil that could affect all of mankind...

Every obstacle is standing in Madeleine’s way. She has urgent papers for the owner of the hottest nightclub in town, and knows her life isn’t worth living if she returns to her formidable boss, Giselle, without them. After arguing with the bouncer and enduring a torturous wait in killer heels, she makes it inside.

When Madeleine meets Christien Chavelier, she knows she has met him before. There is an unmistakable connection between them. Madeleine is confused by the encounter, but Christien is suspicious, believing someone has placed her in his path for a  reason…to keep him distracted. Christien is a Knight of the Templar, granted immortality to protect the key that could bring about the Armageddon if it fell into the wrong hands.

The more time the spend together, the more certain Christien is that Madeleine is the reincarnate of his love he lost seven hundred years ago. Madeleine has dreams of her past life, and of Christien. She experiences their love, and it isn’t long before it becomes her own.

It isn’t all smooth sailing for the reunited lovers. Dark forces are at work against them, intent of their ruin…and revenge.

Her Dark Knight has an intricate plot full of dips and turns to keep the reader of their toes…and keep those toes curled thanks to the hot chemistry between Christien and Madeline. With a mix of doomed historical love and modern romance, this novel has something for everyone. A fantastic page turner.
