Par la grâce de Sa Majesté

The Three Graces of Graydon. . . are well-born sisters bearing an ominous curse: any man betrothed to them without love is doomed to die. Much to her chagrin, Lady Isabel Milton has been given to Earl Rand Braesford as a reward from the Tudor king for his loyalty to the throne. The lusty nobleman quickly claims his husbandly rights, an experience Isabel scarcely hoped to enjoy so much. But youth and strength may not save Braesford from his bride's infamous curse. Accused of a heinous crime, Braesford is imprisoned in the Tower - and Isabel is given the power to seal his fate.
