Then...Grigory "Grisha" Potemkin has had a successful
long association with the powerful Empress Catherine of
Russia. But Catherine and Grisha are older now and face new
threats, both from powers outside of Russia and from those
close to them. Haunted by the horrors of his campaign
against the Muslim Turks, Grisha hopes to construct a mosque
in the heart of the empire. Unfortunately, Catherine's much
younger new lover, the ambitious Platon Zubov, stands in his
way. Grisha determines that to preserve Catherine's legacy
he must save her from Zubov's dangerous influence and win
back her heart. Now...When she learns she is the lost heiress to the
Romanov throne, Veronica Herrera's life turns upside down.
Dmitry Potemkin, one of Grisha's descendants, invites
Veronica to Russia to accept a ceremonial position as
Russia's new tsarina. Seeking purpose, Veronica agrees to
act as an advocate to free a Russian artist sentenced to
prison for displaying paintings critical of the church and
government. Veronica is both celebrated and chastised. As
her political role comes under fire, Veronica is forced to
decide between the glamorous perks of European royalty and
staying true to herself. In Jennifer Laam's The Tsarina's Legacy, unexpected
connections between Grisha and Veronica are revealed as they
struggle to make peace with the ghosts of their past and
help secure a better future for themselves and the country
they both love.
