I had never heard of this author until Tanzanite posted one of her covers on her blogs and since it was about R3 I decided to get a copy. Despite the cheesy cover it was much more historical than romance (sex was pretty tame and few and far between). What surprised me is after Bosworth Field I was expecting another what really happened to the princes/Perkin Warbeck type of story to finish off the last half and was surprised when it fast forwarded to the grandson and dealt with the Pilgramage of Grace in Henry VIII's reign.

In The Shadow of the Crown is the first in a trilogy and I've tracked down the other two and had to share the covers. As best as I can tell these are set during Elizabeth's reign, but I have to wait until I get the books to read the description. Love the third one the best :p ;)

Another Misfit new "old" find! Never heard of this author, but did find a sketchy profile here, though it doesn't help as far as synopses of her novels go:
