Princess Eleanor of Lancaster, the daughter of Margaret of Anjou and King Henry VI, finds herself in a dire situation after her half-brother's failed rescue attempt from sanctuary. With no options left, she is forced to accept Edward's terms and move to his court. While living there, Eleanor receives a letter from her mother, tasking her to seduce and spy in the York court to aid in their family's mission to destroy the Yorks. Despite her best efforts, Eleanor's plans crumble when Edward publicly humiliates her and breaks off their betrothal. Instead, he announces his marriage to a commoner, Elizabeth Woodville, sparking whispers of rebellion from Lancastrian supporters. In an attempt to keep the peace, Edward arranges for Eleanor to marry his younger brother, George. Cover made by @lovely-ria

"Grief is the price we pay for love." Magdalena of Valois-Burgundy was young, beautiful, and a noblewoman. But only intelligence and a sharp wit could save her in the court of greedy vipers. 1458 was the year Henry VI tried to bring peace to the warring English Lords with the Loveday Event. All of Europe had been watching the English squabble for more than a decade, including Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. All of Europe is then flabbergasted when Philip the Good agrees to give his granddaughter, Magdalena of Valois-Burgundy, to the Prince of Wales, Edward of Lancaster. Every court in Christendom is convinced that the Duke has gone as mad as King Henry. Young Magdalena herself is desperate to stay in the comfort of her homeland after years in the French Court. However, her grandfather's decision is final and she is thrust into a court of vipers. Her life has been turned upside-down. Now she must learn to survive in a court where she has too many enemies and too little friends, where every rose has innumerable thorns, where there are too many who wish to see her fallen. Will she survive? Will she be another puppet, another vessel of wasted potential, another rose shunned because a brighter flower was spotted? Read to find out! I do NOT own the white queen

~𝕭𝖊𝖙𝖗𝖆𝖞𝖆𝖑 𝖎𝖘 𝖔𝖓𝖑𝖞 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖇𝖊𝖌𝖎𝖓𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖌~ Born the youngest daughter of Charles I, Duke of Bourbon, Constance of Bourbon grows up amidst comfort and splendour on her powerful family's estates in France. A shy child, she prefers her prayers and pearls to the hefty politics her Father and brothers have no choice but to partake in but war will reach into her life quicker than she could ever know.... Across the sea, in England, the Wars of the Roses rages, a bloody battle for the throne between the royal Houses of York and Lancaster where a word weighs as much as the swing of a sword. Amidst it all, stands Edward of York, the handsome eldest son to the Duke of York, a young knight, eager to fight but forced to flee England in 1459 when the Lancastrian King and Queen overpower his family forces at Ludlow Castle. With his Neville cousins (one being the infamous Earl of Warwick) Edward sails to France where Warwick begins his plots to regain the House of York power. It is as a result of these plots, Edward and Constance are destined to meet. Worlds apart, they will be matched for the benefit of others but when tragedy strikes at the very heart of the House of York, forcing Edward closer to the throne than ever, they find they are, perhaps, what each other needs. Amongst the tangled nest of vipers, surrounded by bloodied thorns, will they keep the crowns destiny calls for them to claim?

But she harbours a secret, a secret that grows within her belly each day. A child, the child of the second son of York. Born the ninth child and fifth daughter of Sir Richard Woodville and Jaquetta of Luxembourg, Isabella was destined to be the wife of a knight or a country squire but that future is thrown to the rivers when her sister, Elizabeth marries the King of England. Now, as the sister to the Queen, Isabella sets her sights higher but never could she imagine the heights to which her heart would soar, heights that would make her dramatic and brutal fall all the more bloody. Alone, betrayed and unsure of her future and that of her unborn babe, Isabella now must tread carefully and guard her heart with a fist of steel as she becomes the Lady of Florence. Determined to play her part, though to keep herself from harm, she plays her cards correctly and is welcomed into the Medici family but when her new husband begins to fall for her can she keep her firm promises of forgoing love for the duration of her life? And when the flames of war and despair truly erupt across the sea, forcing painful ghosts of the past into her life once more, can she find it in herself to resist them? Or rather, him.
