Just finished "Poison" by Sara Poole. It's about the court poisoner for Rodrigo Borgia. Historical fiction, obviously...but darn well researched, and I really enjoyed it. There's a new one with the same characters I'm anxious to get my hands on, called "The Borgia Betrayal".

This book seems to take a much more sympathetic view toward the Borgias than anything else I've seen (though admittedly I haven't researched them much).
