Philippa
Bertrice Small

New York Times Bestselling Author of Rosamund and Until You

Hailed as the “reigning queen of romance,”* New York Times bestselling author Bertrice Small takes us back to the sensuality, drama, and intrigue of King Henry’s sixteenth-century court to tell the story of Philippa Meredith—the daughter of one of her most beloved characters…

The eldest child of Rosamund Bolton and heiress to the Friarsgate manor, Philippa Meredith is devastated when she discovers that the man she sought to marry has rebuffed her. But it is this sudden change of fortune that sweeps the spirited beauty back to her place in the court of Queen Katherine of Aragon—and into the arms of Crispin St. Clair, the Earl of Witton. The Earl is sophisticated, elegant, and a far better match than she had anticipated— and his unbridled passion drives her wild with a desire she’s never known. But when she stumbles onto a plot to assassinate King Henry VIII, their very love is tested as they attempt to unmask those who are plotting to tear the royal court asunder…
