"[...]the period of my life of which I shall write I learned—but what I learned I shall in due time tell you. While at the court of Guise I, like many another man, conceived for Mary Stuart a passion which lay heavy upon my heart for many years. Sweethearts I had by the scores, but she held my longings from all of them until I felt the touch of a pure woman's love, and then—but again I am going beyond my story. I did not doubt, nor do I hesitate to say, that my passion was returned by Mary with a fervor which she felt for no other lover; but she was a queen, and I, compared with her, was nobody. For this difference of rank I have since had good cause to be thankful. Great beauty is diffusive in its tendency. Like the sun, it cannot shine for one alone. Still, it burns and dazzles the one as if it shone for him and for no other; and he who basks in its rays need have no fear of the ennui of peace.[...]".

5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Love & intrigue during the Elizabethan era By A. Woman From the author of When Knighthood Was In Flower comes another romance involving the Tudors. Our narrator is Malcolm Vernon, a Frenchman who has followed the doomed Queen Mary from France to Scotland. When the winds of Fate start to change, Malcom hightails it to England to hole up at Haddon Hall with his English cousins. This is where we meet Dorothy. Of course she's beautiful, clever, strong, stubborn and reckless. With a tip of the hat to Shakespeare, Dorothy has fallen in love with John Manners, son of her father's worst enemy. There's a lot of secret wooing going on between these two. Perhaps too much wooing. There's not enough action. Not THAT kind of action! But Major could have thrown in a sword fight or two, or maybe a dangerous encounter with highwaymen. Something. There's a little bit of drama at the end when Dorothy allows her jealousy to place everyone's lives at risk, but it's not much of a payoff. If you want action with your romance, I recommend The Helmet of Navarre by Bertha Runkle.

By thornfaith This book is loosely based on a true story.This book covers the life of Dorothy Vernon as seen through the eyes of her cousin Malcolm François de Lorraine Vernon. Her cousin weaves his own life in with that of Dorothy's, but we mostly hear of Dorothy and her love interest John Manners. The Manners home and the Vernon home are hated enemies. But Dorothy and John fall in love at first sight. This is the tale of their journey to get past the family feud and find happiness.
