Oh, you're reading the Angelique books! After much hunting, I was able to track down a reasonably priced copy of the first book, which I read and thoroughly enjoyed last year.

Did you like the Rosalind Laker book? I have "To Dance with Kings" on my shelf. It's got a terrible 80s cover (with floating heads :rolleyes

but I've never read anything by her.

Dance with Kings is my favorite of Laker's books. House on the Fjord was more on the tedious/who wrote this? side of things.

I'd been slowly aquiring the Angelique books via swap and kind friends, and then my friend Michele and I were at a UBS and hit the motherlode. Multiple copies of almost all of them for $3-5 each. I know have some duplicates that I'll pass on to other friends once I get them all read and decide which to keep.

The Flower Reader by Elizabeth Loupas (loved it!)

Is it as good as The Second Duchess...I found that book almost unputdownable. I'll look forward to buying that one.
