The Novel
Sheri Vangen-Ratcliffe lives in Minnesota
with her husband and two large breed
dogs.
Although writing and Medieval history are
Sheri's passions, she enjoys a career as
a Real Estate Appraiser.
She is also an active member in the
Richard III Society.  
Heir Apparent

When stonemasons discover the
decomposed remains of a
pregnant, unidentified mistress of
Henry VIII inside a crumbling
window seat at Hampton Court
Palace, curator and historian
Kaitlyn Rose gets the shock of her
life.

Sparked by the exciting discovery,
a chain of events unfolds that
sends Kaitlyn's life veering wildly
off course.
First she discovers that Colin
Wycliffe, her best friend of seven
years, and the man she loves, isn't
who he's claimed to be. Then,
when Colin's half brother,
Brighton Jones turns up after a
fifteen-year absence, things
become even more bizarre.
Brighton, an arrogant, but brilliant
physicist for British Intelligence
dazzles the pair with his latest,
top-secret project on
time-teleportation and sets their
course spinning into the
sixteenth-century .

After teleporting to the dangerous
court of King Henry VIII, Kaitlyn
and Colin make a daring attempt
to save the 21st century
monarchy from absolute
extinction.
Intrigue and sexual blackmail
begin to unfold when the
scheming King Henry VIII,
desperate for a male heir, sets his
sites on the beautiful Kaitlyn to
provide one for him.

Will Kaitlyn provide an heir for
King Henry VIII, or will her love for
Colin keep her faithful?
