Giveaway: His Last Letter by Jeane Westin




His Last Letter


Thanks to the generosity of Penguin Group Publishers, I have one copy of His Last Letter by Jeane Westin up for grabs! Be on the lookout for my review!



Synopsis: (From the Publisher)
"One of the greatest loves of all time-between Elizabeth I and Robert Dudley-comes to life in this vivid novel. 
They were playmates as children, impetuous lovers as adults-and for thirty years were the center of each others' lives. Astute to the dangers of choosing any one man, the Virgin Queen could never give her "Sweet Robin" what he wanted most-marriage- yet she insisted he stay close by her side. Possessive and jealous, their love survived quarrels, his two disastrous marriages to other women, her constant flirtations, and political machinations with foreign princes. 
His Last Letter tells the story of this great love... and especially of the last three years Elizabeth and Dudley spent together, the most dangerous of her rule, when their passion was tempered by a bittersweet recognition of all that they shared-and all that would remain unfulfilled."
