To Die for: A Novel of Anne Boleyn by Byrd, Sandra. library edition. ISBN: 9781611733013.

To Die For is the story of Meg Wyatt, Anne Boleyns best friend since childhood. When Annes star begins to ascend, Meg accompanies her friend to the court of Henry VIII where life is initially thrilling. As Annes favor rises and falls, so does Megs. And though Meg has pledged her loyalty to Anne no matter what the test, Meg could lose her greatest love -- and even her own life -- because of it. Though much of Megs story is fictionalized, it is drawn from known facts. The Wyatt family and the Boleyn family were neighbors and friends. Megs brother, Thomas Wyatt, wooed Anne Boleyn and came very close to the axe blade for it. Two Wyatt sisters attended Anne at her death -- and at her death, she gave Meg her jeweled prayer book.
