Mailbox Monday (29)

I am currently on vacation! Yay! My hubby and I flew across North America from Montreal to Los Angeles and now we are currently in Las Vegas celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary. But the weather is NOT cooperating. A cold front has lowered the temperature by 30 degrees here in Las Vegas while it is HOT in Montreal. Go figure! Oh well, I am getting alot of reading done. Check out what I received last week.

By the way, this meme is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page. You should check out her blog and see what others have received and to play along.

For the King's Favor by Elizabeth Chadwick (from Sourcebooks)

Amazon synopsis:
A captivating story of a mother's love stretched to breaking and a knight determined to rebuild his life with the royal mistress, For the King's Favor is Elizabeth Chadwick at her best. Based on a true story never before told and impeccably researched, this is a testament to the power of sacrifice and the strength of love. When Roger Bigod, heir to the powerful earldom of Norfolk, arrives at court to settle an inheritance, he meets Ida de Tosney, young mistress to King Henry II. In Roger, Ida sees a chance for lasting love, but their decision to marry carries an agonizing price. It's a breathtaking novel of making choices, not giving up, and coping with the terrible shifting whims of the king.

So what did you get in the mail last week?
