Synopsis:

Zeke O'Brien may have his eyes on the title of Black Knight--the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a knight in the kingdom of Aran--but he's also after another prize: The young prince, Chris! Black Knight is a sweeping romantic epic about the relationship between the prince of a medieval kingdom and his loyal guardsman, as they embark on a life-long relationship fraught with danger, treachery, and above all, love.--editorial review

My Review:

This series has a wonderful setting and artwork as well as several interesting name plays on popular and historical figures! However, the romance is too fast paced and, therefore, becomes somewhat droll in the later books. Zeke O'Brein is your typical mysterious, cold male lead while Prince Christian is naive, compassionate, and headstrong.  The story is not original, but it does contain a few intriguing story archs.

My Grade: B+
