Product Description

It was Charles I's love for his Queen Henrietta Maria which plummeted England into the darkness of the Civil Wars, but it was the love & loyalty of another man that sustained her through days of betrayal, destitution & death.

Tall & brave, Harry Jermyn is captivated by the witty French princess, just fourteen years old when she sails with him to Dover, queen of a land she has never seen, of a people whose language she cannot speak, who despise her for her faith
- & wife of a king she has never met.

Charles grows to love her but rebellion & the threat of execution force her into exile & into the arms of Harry, who risks his life for her sake. Together they work for the royalist cause, pawning the crown jewels, securing men & arms & returning to England to lead an army south.

As England is torn apart, Henrietta's heart is torn between the two men she loves, between duty & illicit passion. The subject of dangerous gossip & public scandal, she is powerless to calm the storm which will lead to tragedy.
