Description

"Sandy Blair shows once again that she is the queen of Scottish romance. The King's Mistress is an entertaining tapestry of intrigue, humor, and heart-rending emotion that will stay with the reader long after she turns the final page. Unforgettable!" Lorraine Heath, New York Times bestselling author of WAKING UP WITH THE DUKE Inspired by actual events in 1285 Scotland, The King's Mistress is a tale of mistaken identity laced with intrigue, humor, and passion not easily forgotten. Britt Mackinnon, captain of the king's guard, holds a secret which estranged him from his family. He now has the onerous task of fetching back to Edinburgh the king's mistress - something that infuriates him since Scotland desperately needs a legitimate heir and their new queen has yet to conceive thanks to his king's dalliance. Genene Armstrong would do anything to protect her promiscuous twin sister, who ran from court upon discovering she's pregnant with the king's bastard. Should their barren queen discover this, Genene fears her sister will be murdered. When a handsome soldier suddenly arrives with orders to bring her twin back to court, Genene, totally unprepared for the role, claims to be the woman he's seeking. Lies built upon lies soon collapse and Genene and Britt quickly find themselves running for their lives.
