Far from the shores of England another Elizabeth was born to rule a nation…
The daughter of Peter the Great, Elizabeth was a princess by birth, and a warrior by blood. Never content to be a pawn in the game of men, Elizabeth was destined to sit upon a throne. But when her father’s sudden death leaves her mother and sister at the mercy of the scheming Privy Council, she will have to abandon her beloved Russia in order to survive.
This is not a fairy tale.
And Elizabeth is not your average princess.
She is a Romanov—one of the women in a line of powerful female rulers who will change the face of Russia forever.
*The Winter Queen is a prequel short story in the Stolen Empire series and is the first in a set of novels featuring young Elizabeth of Russia.*
