Princess Mary Rose is the youngest sister of King Henry VIII, and one of the few people whom he adores unconditionally. Known throughout Europe for her charm and beauty, Mary is the golden child of the Tudor family and is granted her every wish. Except when it comes to marriage.

Henry, locked in a political showdown with France, decides to offer up his pampered sister to secure peace between the two mighty kingdoms.

Mary is unwillingly sent to France to marry the ailing King Louis, leaving behind her true love, Charles Brandon.

But she will do anything to be reunited with Charles, even defy her brother, the most feared man in Europe...

About the series

Blending history with romance and drama, Jean Plaidy explores the Tudor dynasty and the political intrigue throughout their reign.
Her novels are still very much to be enjoyed ... Any writer who can both educate and thrill a reader of any age deserves to be remembered and find new fans ... One only has to look at the TV/Media to see that the appetite for this kind of writing is still very much there
