This is the story of Lady Jane Grey who was the queen of England for 9 days.
King Edward ruled over England but had fallen ill. In haste, he changed his will to make his cousin, Lady Jane Grey, the heir to his throne. First though, she is to marry Gifford Dudley.
After much confusion, Jane realizes her husband changes into a horse during the day and spends his nights as a man. This very much concerns her but it concerns her more when she finds out that the John Dudley, Gifford's father, is planning to poison King Edward so his family to reclaim the throne.
Many people change into animals in this story, history gets made, and mostly everyone gets a happy ending.
I really enjoyed this story. I love a good historical fiction novel but adding in the fantasy part of it really made it less boring. I can't wait to read more of this series of The Lady Janies.
