Elizabeth Meredith, the youngest daughter of Rosamund Bolton, is nothing like her sensible sisters. Impatient with fancy manners, the young beauty has shunned the royal court in favor of a quiet life at Friarsgate. But to protect the future of the land she loves, she must venture into the court of King Henry VIII to find a suitable husband.

Elizabeth soon scandalizes the court by forging a friendship with Anne Boleyn and flirting with Flynn Stewart, bastard brother to King James V of Scotland. But, as she has always known, her fate lies back at Friarsgate, where a weakness for Scots sends her into the strong arms of Baen MacColl. Yet Elizabeth's greatest passion is for her lands, and Baen's loyalties may lie elsewhere. Can Elizabeth and Baen overcome the barriers threatening to separate them? And can Elizabeth, by following her heart, still protect Friarsgate?
