A Constant Heart by Siri Mitchell

Mitchell writes a fascinating story that takes place during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.  In the court falsity reigns rampant, no one is sure who they can really trust and love is an unknown thing.... for most.  This is a different kind of tale from what you might expect of Mitchell if you have been following my blog... However, if you read the first book of hers that I did (another historical) it is in that same tone. 

Open a Constant Heart and find that you will get caught up in a story where image, position, money and "worldly" stuff are what drives most.  Those at court strive to keep up appearances and to fit in no matter the cost to themselves, their health, marriage, family or their soul.  I will say that I learned something very interesting about this time period and was something to think deeper on. 

Marget who is our main character will have to make some choices ... will she head down the wrong path and if so will she change her course before it is too late? And what of the unpardonable sin of true love at court... will she risk her heart or let pride be her fall?

As always happy and reflective reading!
