about: Hi there, it's me, Alisa. I write this bio blurb just one week before the release of my second book, The King's Rose. The feeling of waiting for a book's publication has been likened to standing in line for a very large rollercoaster, which I think is an apt description. Anxiety aside, I'm really thrilled to share this book with everyone: it's historical fiction about Catherine Howard, the fifth wife of King Henry VIII. She's just a teenager when she catches the eye of the powerful king. But Henry was no longer the strapping young prince when he cast his eye on the Catherine. Not to mention the fact that he had already beheaded one of his previous queens - Catherine's own cousin, Anne Boleyn. It would be a Cinderella story if it weren't so Hi there, it's me, Alisa.
