SummaryIn this groundbreaking novel, award-winning author
Sandra Worth vibrantly brings to life the people's Queen,
"Elizabeth the Good."
Seventeen-year-old Elizabeth of York trusts that her beloved
father's dying wish has left England in the hands of a just
and deserving ruler. But upon the rise of Richard of
Gloucester, Elizabeth's family experiences one devastation
after another: her late father is exposed as a bigamist, she
and her siblings are branded bastards, and her brothers are
taken into the new king's custody, then reportedly killed.
But one fateful night leads Elizabeth to question her
prejudices. Through the eyes of Richard's ailing queen she
sees a man worthy of respect and undying adoration. His
dedication to his people inspires a forbidden love and
ultimately gives her the courage to accept her destiny,
marry Henry Tudor, and become Queen. While her soul may
secretly belong to another, her heart belongs to England...
