Hello! I’ve been a “lurker” on this site for a long time now. Not sure why I never signed up for the newsletter before 🙂 I adore anything Tudor, and your articles are really interesting. Thanks so much for this website-it’s so informative! I finished reading Starkey’s book Six Wives, and am reading Mantel’s Wolf Hall right now. I’ve read all of the Gregory books,, and am constantly on the hunt for great Tudor authors. This book looks awesome. I love both historical fiction and non fiction, and would love to read more about Lettice Knollys and Elizabeth. What a treat it would be to win this book!
The Tudor’s have been a lifelong fascination with me. Would love this new book to read.
Love anything Tudors! Thank you for the chance to win!
This book sounds fascinating (and a page-turner)! Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂
I love reading about Tudor Times. I am very interested to learn more about Lettice Knollys.
I would love to read this book. It sounds fascinating.
This will be my first Allison Weir book. I love reading about history. I have looked up some info on our lady Lettice as well as the writer Allison and feel confident this tale will come alive and I will be swept up in the telling. Thanks for the chance to meet perhaps my neww favorite author.
Looking forward to reading this book and sampling the authors work. I love reading history written with an eye to the emotional aspects of the characters. Lettice was not known to me and will be very interesting to see why she was able to defy such a strong Queen. Knowing our Elizabeth I figure the lady Lettice kept her head because Elizabeth used hers.
I have so many Tudor books and there always seems to be another story to read. Fascinating era!
My bookshelf really needs this book!! This book has been on my bucket list for a long time! This would be the perfect opportunity!! Thank you so much! 🙂
Oh what a lovely book! It caught my eye a long time ago but i had not the chance to purchase it. Little is written about Lettice and her personal life. I can’t wait to read this! Thank you Natalie!:)
Elizabeth by David Starky was the first Tudor book I read. She’s my favorite!
I have read a little about Lettice, but there is so much more to know!

The story of Elizabeth’s court and her rivals fascinates me!
