Historical fiction with a dash of romance and intrigue for those who love the Tudors.
Lady Dorothy Stafford has royal blood flowing in her veins. But any hopes of a glorious future died on Tower Hill with the death of her grandfather, the infamous Duke of Buckingham. If her aunt hadn't stepped in, she would've been doomed to a life in obscure poverty.
Years later, when Queen Elizabeth I is crowned, Dorothy is invited to join her household. She finds herself thrust at the forefront of a court full of intrigue, and vices. If she wishes to thrive it will take all her cunning.
The tide of fortune might ebb and flow, but she will master it.
