I've read this book so many times I'm pretty sure I've memorized most of it. It is a beautiful, unconventional romance, which effortlessly depicts a woman's life and heart just prior-Elizabethan era. ( ) Love this books about the life of Bess Hardwick, I have re read it only weeks before my first trip to England and can't wait to check out some of the architecture that she talks about and maybe even visit the two houses that she built. Reading this novel inspired me to research her on the internet and find out even more about her story. What an interesting life she led, a true heroine. Thank you Virginia Henley, you did an awesome job! Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Sweeping us into glittering, intrigue-riddled Elizabethan England, bringing to vivid life an actual heroine in the queen's court, New York Times bestselling author Virginia Henley blends rich historical detail with sumptuous romance in her latest novel--a dazzling feast of romantic fiction....Young Bess Hardwick knew that the only way to escape a commoner's life was to serve in a noble family and marry well. So the headstrong beauty set out for London and the Tudor court, the arena for the richest, most ambitious men, none more powerful than the four men who would claim her. None more dangerous than Princess Elizabeth, who made Bess friend, confidante, then lady-in-waiting in her own glittering court...Dangerously seductive, William Cavendish, the king's dashing financial adviser, vowed to have Bess at any cost. Frail, adoring Robert Barlow offered a marriage she couldn't refuse. Newly crowned Queen Elizabeth bade her marry courtly Sir William St. Loe. But reckless passion drove Bess into the arms of George Talbot, the devastating Earl of Shrewsbury, whose wicked daring ignited in Bess the passion of a lifetime--even as it sparked the jealous interest of the most perilous ally of all- the Virgin Queen....
