Quote from the Spanish Ambassador, 1536:
"The Duke of Norfolk's daughter, my lady Beatrice, is of stout mind and great beauty. She can be found most often at the elbow of her father, who she holds in much filial respect. In face, she is the mirror of her father, but in temperament, she possesses the unfortunate qualities reminiscent of her cousin Boleyn, the great whore.
She spends much time with that wretch her brother, the earl of Surrey, and his merry circle of cohorts, writing poetry and such like, something her father despises. 
I do not know what to make of her, in truth. She is simply an enigma. Who knows where she might go? Or how far she might fall?"

Banished for five years, Lady Belinda Carrington returns to Willowfair, claiming to know things one would find impossible to believe. With her tainted reputation, can Belinda make Town Guard McKenzie Haverston help her in her pursuit of the truth? *** After her banishment five years ago, Belinda Carrington returns with secrets and tales too impossible to believe. But something in her lies makes McKenzie Haverston desperate for the truth... When Belinda shows up in McKenzie's home asking for protection in return for important information on a case he's working on, he rejects her. But when he learns where she had been banished after her great scandal five years ago, he finds himself striking a deal with the woman-he protects her, she gives him answers. The question now is: how true is her tale? She was once considered the fairest of them all, but one scandal later, she has become the most reviled. And she is also being hunted. If Belinda wants to stay alive, she has to start trusting McKenzie Haverston, a task she finds to be surprisingly easy to do. However, as the truth of the past begins to resurface, and the secrets of her scandal is revealed, Belinda is confronted by her own demons, causing her to doubt her own reality.
