I’ve been really wanting to get my hands on Queen by Right. Cecily seems like such an interesting character.
Thanks for the giveaway! This really is the best blog hop ever! I have read The Queen’s Vow and The Wise Woman (loved them both) and have Queen by Right, so I would be super happy to have my name put in for a chance to win Mistress of Rome. It sounds really good!
I just discovered your site through the blog hop, and I love your author interviews! I’m adding you to my Google Reader too:-)
I’ve read The Queen’s Vow and Queen by Right but not the other two. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

I love this giveaway. I think the most interesting book is “The Mistress of Rome.” I’ve already ready “The Wise Woman.” It was ok… I think Philippa Gregory was at her best when writing “The Other Boleyn Girl.”
