Knight of Destiny (Book 5)

Monroe writes another charming tale of the Sisterhood of Secrets. Written with an air of mystery and an ever present current of growing love, this is a sweet tale of personal growth. What stands out most in this story is the remarkable growth of our main characters. It is easy to understand the enemies to lovers proponent as one cannot help but loathe our knight, Sir Aaron. He is vain, pompous and incredibly condescending. But then when we look closely at Louisa, we see she too is vapid, insincere and incredibly naive. But as they begin to work together, they each learn many valuable lessons that help them to change their selfish views and come to be wonderful people in the end. We also learn a bit more about our esteemed headmistress, Mrs.Rutley and what her secrets hide. I am eager to read Ruth’s story next, as she might just be the most compelling sister of all. Her secrets seem to be the best kept and I can’t wait for their reveal.

Put 2 very prideful, arrogant, willful people together in a room …..and watch the fur fly! This was a very amusing tale of a Hero and Heroine who absolutely hate one another…..if for the fact they are very much the same! I loved how the author made each one different in their own thought processes, yet refused to acknowledge what they saw in each other were themselves as well! Some of the banter was hilarious, some frustrating, some just plain irritating, but all together, this made for a wonderful story. At times I wanted to kick the Knight right in the butt but had to remember that he was taught what society felt was right at the time. Louisa is a bit of a loose cannon who thinks her way is the best way. To watch each of them grow is heartwarming and there were some tearful moments. I loved Ruth and her very feisty attitude. Mrs Rutley is second Mom to all and I loved her style! Can’t wait to see how this series ends!
