"A sweeping tale of sexual seduction and intrigue at the
court of Henry VIII, At the Mercy of the Queen is a rich and
dramatic debut historical about Madge Shelton, cousin and
lady-in-waiting to Anne Boleyn. At the innocent age of
fifteen, Lady Margaret Shelton arrives at the court of Henry
VIII and quickly becomes the confidante of her cousin, Queen
Anne Boleyn. But she soon finds herself drawn into the
perilous web of Anne's ambition. Desperate to hold onto the
king's waning affection, Anne schemes to have him take her
guileless young cousin as mistress, ensuring her husband's
new paramour will owe her loyalty to the queen. But Margaret
has fallen deeply in love with a handsome young courtier.
She is faced with a terrible dilemma: give herself to the
king and betray the love of her life or refuse to become his
mistress and jeopardize the life of her cousin, Queen Anne.
