review 1: I enjoyed this book as I am a fan of historical fiction especially the Tudor time period. I like how it picks a new character in history that I have never read about: Lucy Morgan. The queen picks Lucy to be a spy for her but she gets more than she bargains for. The author did a good job of bringing the characters alive and holding your interest throughout the whole book. Another thing I liked is how the author was very accurate in her use of history, to me this is an important thing in a historical fiction book and it makes it that much more interesting to me. The attention to detail was very good, I felt as if I was right there in the queens court alongside Lucy. I can't imagine living in that time period, I think it must have been very hard. One thing that I think made ... morethis book move fast for me is that it is told from three different characters points of view. This is the first book I have read by this author and I look forward to reading more. I recommend this to all Tudor fans. I received this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review. I give this book 5 stars.
review 2: I love Historical novels and this is one that I really enjoyed. The author followed historical detail so well that I felt that I was actually there. The characters were so believable and I felt as though I was in the rooms with them. Lucy was my favorite character. I will be looking for more to read from this author. I received this book from the author and I am glad to review it for her. This book held my interest from first page to last. less

Plot was slow and predictable, the numerous story lines seemed to drag at times.

Fun little historical novel, well researched. Good job with period details

This was enjoyable enough - too many loose ends left dangling though.
