SOLVED. YA Mystery about Secret Society and Francis Bacon

[Alyssa]

I read this book somewhere around 2016-2020.

From what I remember, the female main character is orphaned in America and then moves to England. She discovers some sort of secret society around the fact that Shakespeare was actually Francis Bacon and she was a descendant of him.

I believe she is trying to discover the truth about her parents' death and there are elements of romance as well.

Thanks in advance. Been trying to search for this for years now and have had zero luck.

Midheaven? (Or Ascendant, which preceded it?)

Yes! Oh my goodness, thank you so much!!!!!

Glad you found your book, Alyssa. Was it Midheaven or Ascendant by Rebecca Taylor - Capn's suggestions?

Pleasure! It was "Ascendant", right? :)
