Vivacious Sancha of Aragon arrives in Rome newly wed to a member of
the notorious Borgia dynasty. Surrounded by the city's opulence and
political corruption, she befriends her glamorous and deceitful
sister-in-law, Lucrezia, whose jealousy is as legendary as her
beauty. Some say Lucrezia has poisoned her rivals, particularly
those to whom her handsome brother, Cesare, has given his heart. So
when Sancha falls under Cesare's irresistible spell, she must hide
her secret or lose her life. Caught in the Borgias' sinister web,
she summons her courage and uses her cunning to outwit them at
their own game. Vividly interweaving historical detail with
fiction, The Borgia Bride is a richly compelling tale of
conspiracy, sexual intrigue, loyalty, and drama.
