Out of time, bound by honor-only love can break the curse and stop the darkness from rising.
When a battle-worn knight from the 13th century is torn from his time and thrust into the modern world, he's lost everything he's ever known-except his code of honor. Haunted by visions and drawn by a force he cannot name, Sir Reynold finds himself inexplicably bound to a fiercely independent woman who doesn't believe in fairy tales... until she meets him.
Courtney Parker has no time for legends, especially not ones that crash into her life in full chainmail and speak of dark queens and cursed destinies. But when shadows rise and a malevolent force from Reynold's past emerges with a vengeance, Courtney realizes the battle between good and evil isn't confined to storybooks.
As ancient magic stirs and a ruthless queen threatens to reclaim her knight, time itself becomes the enemy. Can true love bridge the centuries and awaken the strength to stand against the dark?
Maxine Douglas first began writing in the early 1970s while in high school. She took every creative writing course offered at the time and focused her energy for many years after that on poetry. It wasn't until a dear friend's sister revealed she was about to become a published author that jumpstarted Maxine into getting the ball rolling; she finished her first manuscript in a month.
Maxine and her late husband moved to Oklahoma in 2010 from Wisconsin. Since then Maxine has rekindled her childhood love of westerns. She has a son, two granddaughters, a great-granddaughter, and a domestic grey tabby named Simon. And many friends she now considers her Oklahoma family.
One of the things Maxine has learned over the years is that you can never stop dreaming and reaching for the stars. Sooner or later you touch one and it'll bring you more happiness than you can ever imagine. Maxine feels lucky and blessed, that over the past several years she's been able to reach out and touch the stars--and she's still reaching.
Maxine loves to hear from her readers. So, come on by and say "Hello"; Maxine would love to hear from you. You can catch her on:
