Life as she knew it had ended…

When Alexandria York fatefully met the Duke of Avalon in the woods she never imagined she’d be working for him. A rising star of the art scene in London, Alexandria agrees to commission a piece for the infamous noble. His intentions quickly become confusing as chemistry grows between the two. 

As she dreams of the man she can’t have, the one she can lures her deeper into his lair. Will the man she once loved be her Knight in shining armor and slay the Dragon? Or will the Dragon consume her before it’s too late? 

In this life, his heart was the stone and her love was the sword…

The Duke of Avalon has lived a long and lonely life. He has chased his love through the centuries and every time she has jilted him, but not this time. Tormented by inner demons, Avalon seeks to keep his secret safe while vowing to win Alexandria York. When his former charge, Lancer Rivers comes back into both their lives, he finds he more than one challenger for her hand. Can he protect Alexandria not only from the man after her very life, but also himself?

Kylie C. Stewart joins the myth of King Arthur and his Knights of the 'Round to modern day. Join Avalon and Alexandria on an adventure full of magic, adventure, and romance. For once is in the past, and the future is now.

Set in Stone is the first book in the Legend series by Kylie Stewart. Ohh man! I've been wanting to read this for a while now! I fell completely in love with this story from the start. It's not at all the King Arthur story I was expecting. It was so much better. The chemistry between Alexandria and Avalon is intoxicating. I loved the dream bits. I felt like we really got to see Avalon in those moments, not to mention, they were oh so steamy. Alexandria is a brave girl, and I absolutely loved seeing her put Avalon in his place. This is a definite must read. I've actually never read a King Arthur retelling before, but I can't imagine it getting much better than this. This book was that good. I need to get my hands on the other books in this series.
