Elizabeth has been welcomed into the court of her uncle, King Richard III. Over the Yuletide celebrations, she has received generous gifts, learned to love the gentle queen and discovered her uncle is not the monster she was taught to expect.
Impatient to be wed and desiring a crown like her mother before, Elizabeth also yearns to be loved. Believing she has met the one man who could offer all this and more, it does not occur to her a price must be paid for such riches.
As the queen’s health fails and Elizabeth's relations with her sister grow more difficult, the New Year begins in a storm of emotion.
While Tristan and Iseult tread an impassioned path through their ancient tale, the road Elizabeth must walk during the months before Bosworth is no less perilous.

Pros and cons of digital selfpublishing: everything and anything is made available to the public, and this is even more true in the case of the hoard of authors bandwagoning the renewed interest on the figure of Richard III, who must be turning in his newly built grave in Leicester at the thought that his name is so poorly spent.In this unscrutinised market, it's up to the readers to try and make their own choices on where to spend their hard earned money and speaking as one with some experience in Ricardian fiction, this is a poor one. Worse than being a collection of slanderous ravings on the last Plantagenet king's supposed incestous affair with his niece, which he undertakes with his dying wife's blessing (Anne utterly encourages Elizabeth to phisically comfort her husband now she is no longer able to) and his niece's enthusiasm, this book is dull and boring. Following the first book in this "saga" the reader will find the same never ending trains of thoughts before a leaf moves in the plot or a word is uttered, same poor basic language, same heart thrills of the female chararacter at every breath, etc.
This is not the only female author apparently enjoying depicting Richard III as an incestous sex symbol and making one think of the old Shakesperean monster and the Bard's powerful lines with affection, but strip away the famous names so badly sticked to this series of sighs and broodings and all you are left with is a poorly written Mills and Boon. If you like the kind, go for it.

The King Wife Changes of Apparel Book 2 edition by Liz Orwin Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Obviously this is a controversial book, depicting as it does the alleged relationship between Richard III and his niece, Elizabeth. However, some might be surprised to learn that NO incest takes place at all. Instead the author depicts a touching, poignant and plausible emotional relationship between a man desperately distressed at his wife's illness and death and weighed down by the cares and responsibilities of kingship and his niece who desperately seeks love. Although Elizabeth would, indeed, risk hellfire for his love and wouldn't refuse him, Richard is depicted as being a mature, strong, pious, morally upright and yet human man, with real worries and emotions, as we all have. I don't think it portrays him in a bad light at all. I think the opposite, in fact. He comes across as a man showing the supreme self-control of resisting the temptation of a caring and nubile young woman that he genuinely cares about in difficult circumstances and this is surely superior to a man who isn't tempted at all. The strength of character of this Richard is phenomenal and admirable. Other than his relationship with Elizabeth, his love and care for his ill wife, Anne, is clearly shown and his justice and championing of those without a voice is apparent as well. Your heart aches for Elizabeth who suffers a love that is returned, but that can never be, surely worse than being unrequited. There are some lovely minor characters as well such as Thomas the little urchin and Gerard the scurrier and Richard's spy. I also love the way the author evokes an atmosphere - you can almost smell the smoke from the candles and feel the wetness of the rain, etc. My only criticism is that I now feel so sad and know that this story will haunt me - I think a sign of a good read.
