About this ebook
A “gripping historical drama” that tells the story of young Elizabeth Tudor’s journey to the throne—and her fierce rivalry with her half sister (School Library Journal).
Imprisonment. Betrayal. Lost love. Murder. What more must a princess endure?
Elizabeth Tudor’s teenage and young adult years during the turbulent reigns of Edward and then Mary Tudor are hardly those of a fairy-tale princess. Her mother has been beheaded by Elizabeth's own father, Henry VIII. Her jealous half sister, Mary, has her locked away in the Tower of London. And her only love interest betrays her in his own quest for the throne…
Told in the voice of the young Elizabeth and ending when she is crowned queen, this novel in the exciting Young Royals series explores the relationship between two sisters who became mortal enemies. New York Times-bestselling author Carolyn Meyer has written an intriguing historical tale that reveals the deep-seated rivalry between a determined girl who became Elizabeth I, one of England's most powerful monarchs—and the sister who tried everything to stop her.

I got interested about the Tudor family when I first saw 'The Other Boleyn Girl'. Past several weeks, I've checked out nonfiction books about King Henry lll, Anne Boleyn, and Elizabeth. I'm currently reading this book and completely love it. I feel like I'm reading about myself because Elizabeth and I are so alike. This is a wonderful book. :)
