Two sisters competing for the greatest prize: the love
of a king
When Mary Boleyn comes to court as an innocent girl of
fourteen, she catches the eye of Henry VIII. Dazzled by the
king, Mary falls in love with both her golden prince and
her growing role as unofficial queen. However, she soon
realizes just how much she is a pawn in her family's
ambitious plots as the king's interest begins to wane and
she is forced to step aside for her best friend and rival:
her sister, Anne. Then Mary knows that she must defy her
family and her king, and take her fate into her own hands.
A rich and compelling tale of love, sex, ambition, and
intrigue, The Other Boleyn Girl introduces a woman
of extraordinary determination and desire who lived at the
heart of the most exciting and glamorous court in Europe
and survived by following her own heart.
