Romance Historical
In the court of Queen Elizabeth I, romance and intrigue
could cost you more than your heart… It could cost you your
head. July, 1575: Elizabeth I, Queen of England, arrives at
Kenilworth Castle—home of Robert Dudley, the Earl of
Leicester. Leicester, who has long had ambitions to marry
the Queen, knows this may be his very last chance to
persuade her to marry him. Toward this end, the hopeful earl
has organized a lavish week of music, dancing, and fireworks. Despite his attachment to the Queen and his driving ambition
to be her King, Leicester is unable to resist the seductive
wiles of Lettice, wife of the Earl of Essex—and the queen’s
own cousin. Soon whispers of their relationship start
spreading through the court. Enraged by their growing
intimacy, Elizabeth employs Lucy Morgan, a young African
singer and court entertainer, to spy on the adulterous lovers. But Lucy, who was raised by a spy in London, uncovers far
more than she bargains for. For someone at Kenilworth is
plotting to kill the queen. No longer able to tell friend
from foe, it is soon not only the queen who is in mortal
danger—but Lucy herself…
