Keeper of the Queen's Jewels by Adrienne Dillard
Two women with opposing allegiances are bound together by desperate circumstances: one must birth a son to secure the throne. The other hides a dangerous secret that could cost them their lives.No longer the meek and mild, ineffectual queen of the history books, JANE SEYMOUR is reimagined as a woman on the precipice-one misplaced step away from oblivion.In the maid's dormitory, MARGERY HORSMAN struggles as she comes to terms with the fallout of her careless words, uttered recklessly in a fit of envy and greed, ending in the ruin and death of her first love. Surrounded, yet feeling alone and abandoned, Margery searches for her place in the world. When a young widower still grieving over the loss of his wife asks for her hand, Margery steps into a role she never imagined, that of mother to a half-orphaned boy.As religious rebellion threatens to tear the country in two, fortune's wheel turns, and formerly rising stars of the Tudor Court tumble. Amid the upheaval, a queen and her devoted maid will unite to preserve the legacy of ANNE BOLEYN for England's once and future Queen: Gloriana.
