New York Times bestselling author Bertrice Small takes us
back to the sensuality, drama, and intrigue of King
Henry's sixteenth-century court to tell the story of the
daughter of one of her most beloved characters.
SummaryThe eldest child of Rosamund Bolton and heiress to the
Friarsgate manor, Philippa Meredith is devastated when she
discovers that the man she sought to marry has rebuffed
her. But it is this sudden change of fortune that sweeps
the spirited beauty back to her place in the court of
Queen
Katherine of Aragon-and into the arms of Crispin St.
Clair,
the Earl of Witton. But when Philippa stumbles onto a plot
to assassinate King Henry VIII, their very love is tested
as they attempt to unmask those who are plotting to tear
the royal court asunder.
