Who would not want to spend more time in the mad, bad world of the Romanovs?' The Times 'A delicious hotbed of greed, lust and envy' HeatWhen they took everything from her, they didn't count on her fighting to get it back...Born into the House of Romanov to the all-powerful Peter the Great and Catherine I, beautiful Tsarevna Elizabeth is the world's loveliest Princess and the envy of the Russian empire. Insulated by luxury and as a woman free from the burden of statecraft, Elizabeth is seemingly born to pursue her passions.However, a dark prophecy predicts her fate as being inexorably twined with that of Russia. When her mother dies, Russia is torn, masks fall, and friends become foes. Elizabeth's idyllic world is upended. By her twenties she is penniless and powerless, living under constant threat. As times change like quicksand, an all-consuming passion emboldens Elizabeth: she must decide whether to take up her role as Russia's ruler, and what she's willing to do for her country - and for love.Praise for Tsarina 'It makes Game of Thrones look like a nursery rhyme' Daisy Goodwin 'A vivid page-turner of a debut' The Times 'Tsarina should come with a health warning - once you start reading, it's impossible to stop' Hannah Rothschild

Although I didn‘t read the first book Tsarina I found this to be a solid historical novel. Rich in historical details and filled with actual historic figures I found this to be a very good read. #readingchallenge2022

Sequel to Tsarina. This was just as Fabolous. It looks at Elizabeth Petrovna Romanov of Russia and her life from Peter the Great's death thru Ivan VI's reign. Takes me a while to read a Historical Fiction, bc I stop, look up, and read about other people I come across in the book, when I know nothing about them. I am such a nerd 🤓.

Book comes out March 15, 2022

CoverToCoverGirl I always have to check things out too, it enhances the reading experience. History is my thing, I usually know the players but not all the unique details. I‘m just now reading and loving the 2y
