New York Times bestselling author Bertrice Small concludes her
acclaimed saga of Rosamund Bolton and her daughters with this tale
of passion, intrigue, and seduction, set against the glorious
backdrop of King Henry's court... Elizabeth Meredith, the youngest
daughter of Rosamund Bolton, is nothing like her sensible sisters.
Impatient with fancy manners, the young beauty has shunned the
royal court in favor of a quiet life at Friarsgate. But to protect
the future of the land she loves, she must venture into the court
of King Henry VIII to find a suitable husband. Elizabeth soon
scandalizes the court by forging a friendship with Anne Boleyn and
by flirting with Flynn Stewart, bastard brother to King James V of
Scotland. But her fate lies back at Friarsgate--as she has always
known--where a weakness for Scots sends her into the strong arms of
Baen MacColl. Yet Elizabeth's greatest passion is for her lands;
and Baen's loyalties may lie elsewhere. Can they overcome the
barriers threatening to separate them? And can Elizabeth, by
following her heart, still protect Friarsgate?
