Par La Grâce De Sa Majesté (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

Those who court any of the 3 Grace sisters also court Death, so goes the rumored family curse. Lady Isabel thought herself safe from unwanted suitors until King Henry VII gives her away to Earl Rand Braesford as a reward for his loyalty. Blessings seem to be raining upon Rand it seems – the king’s high favor, a well-dowried marriage, and a most beautiful wife. As the couple start to warm up to each other, they are torn apart again as Rand gets arrested for murder and thrown into the Tower. Will Isabel and Rand’s love manage to conquer the curse – or will Death win this round?By His Majesty's Grace spent more time on historical than romance, or so it seemed to me, like a historical fiction with sexy times sprinkled throughout – instead of the other way around. I had glimpsed at the connection between Isabel and Rand when they first meet each other, but lost sight of their passion and personality as the story became immersed in court intrigue. I am used to reading Regency romance, so I was curious to see how things heated up during the Tudor era. A little awkward at times when it came to passion (a few creative "strutted" descriptions that I had to pause and wonder about). I did find it rather cute to learn how the color of clothing can be used to indicate one’s affection. Really enjoyable start to a new series. This took me back in time a little farther than my normal historical romances so it took a little bit to get in to the time period, but once I was in I was hooked. I loved how independent Lady Isabel was. Rand was not the man she imagined herself married to but she was able to adapt to how her circumstances changed. And after her marriage, her world changes again when her new husband is accused of crimes against the crown. They battle their insecurities to find a way to trust each other and love. Great new series and a great lead in to the other books in the series.
