Description
The Prince...
Even after decades of peace following a ruinous civil war, the stability of the English throne cannot be taken for granted. Honoring a promise made to his father, Prince Edmund Tudor has dedicated his life to supporting his king. Even his marriage will be made in service of his pledge, his bride the king's to choose. But that does not mean he cannot enjoy himself beforehand. Handsome and charming, he is free to dally with the ladies of the court, playing at love in a game no one takes seriously.
...and the maid-of-honor
Arriving at the royal court to advance her family's interests, Cecilia Coleville has two goals: gain the Queen's favor and attract a noble suitor. What she is not there to do is engage in a dalliance with a man far beyond her reach, one whose attention can only damage her reputation. Yet despite her awareness of what she owes the family she loves, she cannot resist Edmund.
When a new danger to the throne emerges, Cecilia must help Edmund stop it, without losing her honor - or her heart.

Person
Katy Cooper writes historical romances set in a slightly altered Tudor England. She grew up a military brat, daughter of a career Air Force officer, Like all the other military brats she knows, she was always aware of the hierarchies of military rank, which can explain why she writes stories set in societies where rank impacts her characters’ lives in a myriad of ways.
And then there was all the reading, the omnivorous and voracious reading that started as soon as she learned how. Someone once said she had the most catholic reading tastes of anyone he knew and all that wide-ranging exploration finds its way into her stories as well.
Katy lives in north of Boston, MA, with her sister and her two rescue dogs.
