Mistress to the crown

The day Lord Hastings came into her husband's shop, Elizabeth saw an opportunity to separate herself from her dull, impotent husband, William Shore. The stranger might be her only chance to partake in the dance of desire and annual her marriage. She did not, however, foresee her introduction to the King of England, nor her future at his side ... and in his bed. Her family shun her, the people of London label her a harlot and the White Queen's family are powerful enemies. Can Elizabeth's beauty keep her out of trouble ... or will it lead her to the hangman's noose?
