Despite Lyuba's best efforts, she hasn't managed to get herself kicked out the #brideshow. Soon she'll be face-to-face with #ivantheterrible. No wonder she's worried! #histfic #romance #1500s

Ah, the stakes are rising. Someone really, really wants to come out on top in that #brideshow. #ivantheterrible may be, well, terrible, but he's still the tsar.... @cplesley #HistoricalFiction #histfic #Romance https://t.co/XXx5q7cBJk

It's that or show up in the Kremlin and risk being selected by the tsar. But displeasing #ivantheterrible has its costs.... @cplesley #HistoricalFiction https://t.co/XXx5q7cBJk

As if the innocent girls aren't all ears! (Anyone recognize the couple?) https://t.co/XXx5q7cBJk @cplesley

[C. P. Lesley @cplesley]

And well does she deserve the honor—that applies to both Lady Georgie and @Rhysbowen, of course. PS: You can learn more about Lady Georgie from our @NewBooksNetwork #interview: https://t.co/X0fAJNQNRu
