I recently took a whirlwind trip to England. Meet my travel companions. Stanley and Livingstone I like to travel with at least one friend and these two are fun. Livingstone the penguin is very solemn and well behaved. Stanley likes to get up to mischief. p.s. They are on my bed not the North Pole

Her Royal Spyness (The Royal Spyness Series Book 1) London, 1932. Lady Victoria Georgiana Charlotte Eugenie, 34th in line for the English throne, is flat broke. She's bolted Scotland, her greedy brother, and her fish-faced betrothed. London is a place where she'll experience freedom, learn life lessons aplenty, do a bit of spying for HRH—oh, and find a dead Frenchman in her tub. Now her new job is to clear her long family name...
