Lucy Day becomes the new dressmaker to a very young Lady Jane Grey and assists her for the next several years, becoming as close a friend and confidant as their two different stations will allow. Intrigued, Jane tries to learn who her namesake might be. She finds an unusual, very old ring in the binding of an old book, a ring that happens to have her name engraved inside it, along with a phrase in Latin. Giving him the space he says he wants, she occupies herself with her antique business, confiding in her friend, who urges her to see a counselor, yet trying to keep the situation from her meddlesome mother. They had been married twenty-two years, and she thought everything was fine. Jane Lindsay’s husband unexpectedly walks out on her, and she is stunned. Lady in Waiting by Susan Meissner caught my eye when both Susanne and Quilly highly recommended it.
