What to expect

Step into the world of scandalous Tudor-era marriages in this delicious book from Sylvia Barbara Soberton . . .



The newly-wed Anne Hastings faced her husband's wrath when her affair with William Compton was made public. Mary Tudor married to satisfy her brother's political need to ally with France, but when her decrepit royal husband died, she married the dashing Charles Brandon for love. William Parr, humiliated by his wife's extramarital affair, sought a divorce to marry the woman he loved.



Trapped in loveless marriages, women like Anne Parr and Anne Grey eloped with their lovers, risking their reputations and livelihoods to find personal happiness.



Courtiers like Mary Boleyn, Margaret Douglas, Edward Seymour, and Robert Dudley faced royal wrath when marrying for love. Some returned to royal favor, but others languished in prison, dying without obtaining a pardon.



Teeming with unforgettable stories, scandals and courtiers who followed their hearts over their duties, this book is a must-listen for anyone who loves a blend of intrigue, romance, and historical splendor set against the backdrop of the Tudor court.
