Elizabeth Webb is sent to court as replacement for her mother who was beheaded by the order of King Henry VIII, the famous Tudor monarch. Elizabeth tries her hardest to satify her sovereign lord, since the death warrant is hanging low on her head, but even the slightest mistake can cost her everything. Meeting the demands of the court is always a challenge, but one day the King gives her an order, which might just be too much for poor Elizabeth Webb. This is my novella for the Open Novella Contest III. I've chosen prompt 31 and 45, and will be written in the genre historical fiction. 2nd place in The Spring Awards 2020 Copyright © annasofie_mattson, 2020 All Rights Reserved.

What if Henry VIII had married differently? What if his choice of wives changed his reign and the whole of England's history forever? A young man sits on the throne of England with a face and charm that draws woman from all corners of the kingdom. There are those with years of training and tutoring in their heads: there are those with no plan but themselves; there are those who only see the empty throne and themselves to fill it. Henry VIII needs a Queen. He needs a son. He's the King of England. He always gets exactly what he wants. This time, he wants the woman of his dreams. Well, maybe two or three. *Started 28th August 2016* *Completed 16th February 2022* #39 in Historical Fiction 22/07/18 #29 in Fiction 17/08/20 >> Cover designed by the great @WorksbyAmeliss <<

Lydia Hunt is familiar with the concept of sin. Reared beneath the strictures of religious zealotry and abuse, she has heard again and again that her nature is wicked and her soul bound for eternal damnation. But when she is sent to work at Mowbray Hall, ancestral home of the enigmatic Lord Cailvairt, Lydia begins to fear just how wicked she might be. For although Cailvairt makes no effort to hide his pursuit of her, his insistence on challenging the ideals imposed upon her as a child―even while speaking to her as an equal―leaves it difficult for Lydia to resist his attentions. As her inhibitions crumble away and the foundation of her beliefs threatens to falter, she must determine if giving into temptation will destroy her... or be the act that saves her. ~ The first three full chapters are available here on Wattpad.
