The Boleyn Deceit



The second book in the addictive Anne Boleyn trilogy with a twist: what if she had given birth to a son?

Torn between his kingdom and the woman he loves. . .

William Tudor, now King Henry IX, sits alone on the throne. But England must still contend with those who doubt his legitimacy. William is betrothed to a young princess from France, but still he has eyes only for his childhood friend Minuette, and court tongues are wagging.

Even more dangerous - if discovered - is that Minuette's heart and soul belong to Dominic, William's best friend and trusted advisor. . .

About the author

Laura Andersen

Laura Andersen has one husband, four children, and a university degree in English that she puts to non-profitable use by reading everything she can lay her hands on. Books, shoes, and travel are her fiscal downfalls, which she justifies because all three ‘take you places.’ She loves the ocean (but not sand), forests (but not camping), good food (but not cooking), and shopping (there is no downside.) She lives in Massachusetts with her family.
