Theodore Knight has a curious nature. Ever since he was a child, he’s loved books that are full of danger and adventure. In real life, he’s a simple bookstore owner. But in his imagination, he’s a hero who goes on great quests to save the princess, or in his case, the prince, from evil dragons.
Until one day, real life starts to look a lot like his imaginary world. . . and the fate of an entire kingdom rests on his shoulders. The world is more magical than he ever thought, and he will have to learn to accept the impossible as possible, if he and Samuel are to succeed.
Samuel Day had never journeyed to the human realm, and he sure didn't mean to get stuck there. That said, he’s found it all incredibly fascinating. Especially Theodore, the adorable human who holds a piece of the puzzle necessary to stop an evil immortal and save the magic realm known as Evorea. His loyalty is to his king, but it doesn’t take long for Theodore to become equally important.
They come from different realms and are as different as night and day, but together they have everything they need to save Evorea from ruin. They just have to find their way back there.
Knight and Day is part of the Magic Emporium Series. Each book stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium, a shop that can appear anywhere, but only once and only when someone’s in dire need. This book contains a magic realm, a handsome guardian, one clueless human, and a guaranteed HEA.
This is the first book of the Magic Emporium series - complete stand alone stories who share the common presence of a mysterious shop that shows up in times of need across universes and dimensions.
To be honest, the blurb really embellishes what this story is about. In reality, it’s a super duper simple romance as Theodore and Samuel fall in love while trying to find a way back to the magical realm Evorea, in order to destroy a potentially sinister dagger. They learn about each other and the differences and similarities of their worlds with quite the quick progression to love in a matter of days. This touches lightly on fate and destiny and of course, ends with a nice and neat HEA that was quite anticlimactic.
I’m practically the lone person that didn’t love this story hard so take my unimportant opinion with a grain of salt. Having read many many urban fantasy paranormal stories over the years, this was admittedly easy breezy with very little to complain about but on the other hand, brought nothing new to really espouse upon either.
Overall, a decent introduction to this intriguing premise of a series.
