Summary
from Goodreads:
Olivia
Davenport’s plan is destined to fail.
She is going through with it anyway, of course. After all, it is the chance of a lifetime. The unreasonable rules of others should not stand in her way.
In her small kingdom of Stewartsland, Olivia trains with the squires and harbors a secret dream. She longs to become a knight under the command of the Master-of–Arms, who just happens to be her father. He has indulged her passion so far, but they both know a simple fact – girls may not attain knighthood. Dismayed by the constant discouragement of her ambitions, she makes an impetuous decision to disguise herself as a boy in order to sneak on a mission. The consequences are not at all what she anticipated.
When her deception is revealed, she is sent home in disgrace; however, an unexpected turn of events puts her at the center of a dangerous plot against the King. The ensuing adventure finds her grappling with mercenaries and outlaws, yet these pale in comparison to her newly awakened emotions. She finds not only her life at risk, but also her heart, when the aloof Prince Liam begins to affect her in ways she never thought possible. In the end, it is her courage and unique spirit which must guide her through the challenges she encounters both physical and emotional.

About
the Author
Reading
was always a big part of my life. Creating my own stories developed
out of this love. Finally, I decided to try my hand at writing a
novel and that was when Not Every Girl was conceived.
I
live in New Jersey with my husband, two sons and an extremely spoiled
cat. When I am not running around with my family or writing, I can be
found curled up with a good book and said cat. It is my belief that a
good book, a loyal pet and anything made of chocolate can brighten
just about any day.
