Poison has stolen her mind. Loyalty has stolen his freedom.

England, 1586


An embittered war-hero must protect a crazed beauty. But he's being blackmailed, she's being hunted, and falling in love could be a fatal mistake.

In honor of a deathbed promise, wounded veteran Sir William Cavendish rescues Isobel Marston from her grasping cousin. But this frenzied young woman proves a nightmare to handle. Soon, Will is trying to save her from herself, as well as from those who want her dead.

When her detestable cousin moves in after her brother's loss, unwitting heiress Isobel is heavily drugged. Just enough lucidity remains for her to beg Will for help. But Will is being threatened by an unofficial fiancée and her unscrupulous father. If he lets himself fall for the enticing Isobel, he'll put his entire future at stake.

Entangled in a desperate game of cat-and-mouse, Will and Isobel stand to lose more than their hearts.

If you fancy a Gothic-style Tudor romance, this is definitely the tale for you. All stories in the Trysts and Treachery Series can be read as stand-alones.
 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



Isobel Marston knows somewhere in the back of her very muddled mind that she is not ill like her cousin says.  Unfortunately, because of the medicine they keep feeding her she can't keep her thoughts together very long.
Sir William Cavendish has come back from war . Luckily for his reputation at Queen Elizabeth's court is nobody knows where he was or what he's been doing.  He needs to deliver some terrible news to the sister of his bestfriend, and keep his promise to look after her. 
Our characters in this story will face more than their share of trouble. Women in this period of history had very little control or recourse against villainous male relatives. 
A fascinating insight into life in Queen Elizabeth's  London.  
I loved it.

Elizabeth Keysian is an English archaeologist, teacher and museum curator. She first started writing "long stories" when her headmaster father needed something to keep her quiet during school summer holidays. In her teenage years she produced angst-ridden poetry, slightly disturbing sketches for an amateur dramatics group and even her own magazine, to the mixed delight and consternation of her friends.
After completing her History degree, Elizabeth joined an English Civil War re-enactment group, messed about with the Middle Ages and finally settled to an enjoyable reconstruction of Tudor Daily Life at Kentwell Hall in Suffolk.
Her imagination was further inspired by living for seven years on a Knights Templar estate, with a garage full of skeletons, a resident ghost and a moat teeming with newts. She now lives near Bath with her partner and cats.
Elizabeth likes to keep her historical novels atmospheric and authentic, with both tears and laughter along the way. She loves to hear from readers.
