description: Born in the hour of Elizabeth I's coronation, Beth Tarleton was named for the Queen. It was to have been a good omen, but within hours her parents were dead. Adopted by a couple whose child had recently died, Beth was brought up believing that she was their true daughter. She was twenty when she met Giraud Deveril. Recklessly, she tasted the fruits of a forbidden love.
