A determined sister . . .
Madeleine Vernon’s dreams should be filled with elegant gowns and marriageable men. Instead, she dreams of avenging her brother’s death. But when she’s captured by the queen’s men, she’s forced to become a spy by her mysterious yet undeniably attractive captor.

A rakish spy . . .
After years of working for his father in Queen Elizabeth’s service, Nicholas Ryder is close to going his own way. But now he’s got a feisty beauty he must protect or risk her execution as a traitor to the crown. She’s a distraction he can’t afford, but he also can’t stop thinking about her.

A dangerous lie . . .
It is Nicholas’s job to foil plots against Elizabeth, and he sends Maddy into a household of suspected traitors to garner what information she can. As the line between captor and prisoner blurs, deceit, betrayal, and desire become a perilous mix. Ultimately, Nicholas must decide whether duty to the queen is more important than winning Maddy’s heart.

Historical triller of twisting plots for power between Queen Elizabeth & Mary Queen of Scots.

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2018

Mistress Spy by Pam Mingle
This is my first book by this author.
I enjoyed this historical story of the many plots planned to interfere with Queen Elizabeth’s imprisonment and custody of Queen Mary of Scots. Queen Elizabeth’s Agents are tasked with recruiting and placing spy’s to uncover any plots or plans of murder or kidnapping Queen Mary or her son, before they could be carried out. The exploits used to recruit the heroine to spy, was interesting.
The storyline is well written with creative characters surrounded by lots of adventure, mystery, danger, intrigue, and a slow burn romantic attraction.
What I didn’t like about the story was I felt there was a huge difference in the heroine’s character, integrity, and mannerisms from the bold and angry blood revenge seeking vigilante who charged into a losing battle to kill a man to avenge the life her brother lost, then to a meek and highly judgmental woman who possibly wouldn’t be able to forgive her brother for an act that she didn’t recall she herself attempted. Her big character change just didn’t mesh for me.
I would recommend this book to those, like myself, who enjoys a good well rounded historical romance that includes angst, and some dark and moderate sexual content. I look forward to reading more novels from this author! Happy reading.

Romance and intrigue

Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2019

I quite enjoyed this novel. I’d give the plot a 4/5. I wasn’t able to guess the ending, and I learned something new. Overall, I was engaged. I think I give the romance a 🔥🔥(2)/5. The progression of the relationship seemed to go at a fairly realistic pace, but I didn’t think it was particularly steamy. Still, is totally recommend it for readers interested in Elizabethan era or spy-themes romances.

A pleasant read

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2019

In 1570 Madeleine Vernon is caught up in the hostilities and paranoia between Queen Elizabeth l of England and Mary, Queen of Scots. Imprisoned in Carlisle Castle’s dungeon and believing her brother has been executed, Madeleine faces the possibility of her own execution. When Nicholas Ryder offers her the chance of a pardon if she spies on the household of Lady Dacre, Madeleine reluctantly accepts. She becomes Lady Dacre’s companion, apparently calm and obedient despite the presence of her former lover John Musgrave.
Events in the Dacre household rapidly escalate. A maid disappears and Madeleine suspects Musgrave of killing her, a band of riders attack the household but steal very little. Investigation shows that the elderly Lady Dacre has an unusual history. As Madeleine reports all this to Nicholas she finds herself increasingly attracted to him, yet he is her enemy and has proved himself untrustworthy to boot.
This is a pleasant read with plenty of twists as well as engaging characters who come to life, flaws and all. The setting – the northwest corner of England – makes a refreshing change from the usual London court of Elizabeth l. The political intrigues are well researched as is the geographical detail.

Exciting Read

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2018

Thrilling, exciting, interesting and romantic. This is my first book by this (I think fairly new) author and it definitely won’t be my last. It is well-written and well-plotted and I just couldn’t stop reading. I enjoyed all of the characters, even the villains and that is rare. Another thing I liked is that it wasn’t filled with Dukes, Earls, etc. Just plain folks in the northern region of England in 1569 – well – not plain folks as in farm laborers, etc. but people who had nice homes, but weren’t necessarily the aristocracy.

In an exciting opening scene, we have our heroine, Madeline Vernon, riding into battle against the Queen’s army. Why? She wants to avenge her brother Robert’s hanging as a traitor. Actually, he was a traitor, but he never even got to have a trial for any facts to come out – he was just hanged. Those were some dangerous times between England and Scotland – Elizabeth was the Queen of England and Mary was Queen of Scotland. Mary was imprisoned by Elizabeth and the Catholic religion had been outlawed. Everyone was forced into the ‘new’ protestant religion. Naturally, the Catholics didn’t want to give up their religion and many of them went underground while others blatantly defied the law and openly practiced their religion.

The battle does not end well for the rebels lead by Lord Leonard Dacre. They were a rag-tag group armed with dirks and pitchforks – certainly no match for the highly trained and well-armed Royal troops. Many of the rebels were killed and even more were captured. Madeline (Maddy) was one of those captured and she spent six very trying days in prison awaiting her questioning/torture or her hanging. She had no idea which it would be, but she was sure it would be one or the other. She had so many regrets about what she had done – especially dragging two of her friends into the uprising. Then, her jailer comes to take her up for her interrogation – but – that isn’t really what she got. She receives an offer she can hardly refuse – become a spy in the home of someone the Crown believes is a traitor or hang.

Nicholas Ryder, a representative of the Crown, sat and awaited the prisoner’s arrival – and when she did arrive, she was the most bedraggled woman he’d seen in his entire life. The stench was unbelievable, she was injured, and you couldn’t even see her face for the dirt. He makes her an offer – assume the role of companion/secretary in the home of Lady Jane Dacre aunt to Leonard Dacre. Maddy is to spy on the Dacre’s to find out what, if anything, they had to do with any of the uprisings. This branch of the Dacres appear to be loyal to the queen, but there are doubts.

Maddy enters into what appears to be a loyal, protestant household – but there are so many undercurrents. Add in Mr. Vine, who Maddy knew many years ago as someone other than Mr. Vine – and an innocent sixteen-year-old maid who goes missing and you have quite a tale. Is Mr. Vine as evil as Maddy thinks he is? Where is the sweet maid and did Mr. Vine do something to her? Could Lady Dacre, who is kind to Maddy, really be a traitor?

As Maddy carries out her task and reports weekly to Nicholas, their relationship grows and they come to care for each other – but so very many things stand in their way and do their best to keep them apart.

I absolutely loved Nick’s ward – his nephew Daniel. He was a wonderful addition to the book because he was such a sweet and loving little boy – and so troubled. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing him grow.

It is a lovely read and I’ll definitely be looking for more books by this author.
