Meet the characters who populate Courting Trouble. Today we'll feature Her Royal Highness Odburh (pronounced ODD burr), with an excerpt from the book that describes the heroine's first glimpse of this wicked queen.
I jumped. I turned around and saw a woman who could have come from the stars. I didn’t think it was possible to be so beautiful. On her head the woman was wearing the sheerest of veils. Rather than concealing it seemed to create an aura around the dark brown hair pulled back from her face and braided into labyrinthine patterns. She was about average height for a woman, but stood in so erect and commanding a posture that she seemed as tall as a man. Her head was small, and her features finely chiseled. Her gown was embroidered all over with gold thread that gleamed even in the dim light of the chamber.
