Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived:
This is the story of the one who survived.
Widowed for the second time at age thirty-one Katherine
Parr falls deeply for the dashing courtier Thomas Seymour
and hopes at last to marry for love. Instead, she attracts
the amorous attentions of the ailing, egotistical, and
dangerously powerful Henry VIII. No one is in a position to
refuse a royal proposal so, haunted by the fates of his
previous wives—two executions, two annulments, one death in
childbirth—Katherine must wed Henry and rely on her wits and
the help of her loyal servant Dot to survive the treacherous
pitfalls of life as Henry’s queen. Yet as she treads the
razor’s edge of court intrigue, she never quite gives up on
love.
