The Seven Deadly Sins

A murdered father, an adulterous mother and a scandalous sister have given Elizabeth Memorium, Duchess by birthright, all too much trouble to succeed in the cut throat world of France's court. Her beauty was revered by many, the originality and uniqueness of her flashing blue eyes and dark raven hair made her near famous in the life she built for herself in Queen Victoria's court. And though most liked to figure her innocent, this vixen was all too aware of the effect she had on men. So as she rose in the court, so did the icy walls around her heart even when the most handsomest of men proclaimed their love for her. Her body was given but her heart was never taken...until now.
When Elizabeth is suddenly summoned back to England to take her place as Queen Jayna's new Lady in Waiting, she is more than anxious at what she may find. As her carriage roles into the frightening palace, her thoughts are filled with the ideas of a possible engagement that awaits her, the reuniting with her sister whom she hadn't laid eyes on for years and the tales of a dangerously seductive King.
Though nothing could have prepared this siren for what truly lay in her future, her strategic methods of manipulation are tossed to the wayside when prophecies, blood, and betrayal come into play. What path shall Elizabeth take? The path to safety and humanity? Or shall she take the plunge into the unknown darkness of sin?
