When palliative care nurse Rhianna McLeod is given a gift of a dream holiday to the Bahamas from her dying patient, billionaire JT Lance, she has no idea that her 'holiday' will include being stranded on a private island with Jonathan, an irritating but irresistibly handsome recluse. Or that she'll fall head over heels for the man.
Jonathan isn't happy to discover a drop-dead gorgeous redhead has invaded his island. But his anger soon turns to attraction. After one failed marriage, he has guarded his heart, but Rhianna's sudden appearance makes him yearn to throw caution to the wind.
To live fully in the present, Rhianna must resolve her own murky past, unravel the secret that haunts JT, foil the plans of a sleazy, blackmailing private investigator and help Jonathan find his muse. Only then can Rhianna find the love she's been searching for, and finally become...Lancelot's Lady.

The Good:
I loved this story. The characters were compelling, the romance kept me interested and rooting for the couple, the mystery and the little of action there was, was intriguing and kept me glued to the page.
Lancelot’s Lady is first and foremost a romance, but the mystery undertones definitely keep you interested and wanting to read more. Even though I was able to guess some of the plot, I was still surprised by some details and I just love when that happens.
I had a lot of fun with this book and I have to say, I simply adore when there is a kid in the story, specially such a lovable one… Adorable!
The Bad:
I found that the way this were manipulated was a little convoluted, but it did work out in the end. I don’t really have much more negative things to say about this novel =)
The Romance:
Two very likable and interesting characters, Rihanna and Jonathan, were a pleasure to read about. Rihanna had such a difficult and traumatizing past that I couldn’t help but feel for her.
Both characters are extremely damaged and their romance seems even impossible at times, but they do come together and it is glorious. The journey was a lot of fun.
I totally recommend this book to any Romance lover out there!

I'm all for a good mystery-romance! :)
Thanks for the review!
4 loveys and a 'not much bad to say about it' sounds like a book worth taking the time to read. :) Good thing, because I've already bought it. Excellent 'quickie'.

LOL well, I cant wait to see what you think! =P
that's a great cover, for that alone I would have checked out the blurb! You like kids in stories? LOL I liked them in Ilona Andrews' The Edge, didn't like the one in Kleypas' Smooth Talking Stranger so I can't say for certain whether kids in stories are my thing XP
Congrat on the great review Cheryl, ty for sharing Larissa!

I havent rea dthat one you mentioned... but yeah I have a thing for kids in stories, their tendency of always saying what they mean is awesome and always bring a new element to a story =P
I dont think I would enjoy a kid in all the stories I;ve read... but, It generally works great =D
