| 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? |
