In the glittering halls of Tudor England, where ambition and desire entwine, a new force arrives to disrupt the fragile balance of power. Lady Vittoria de' Medici, a radiant beauty from the illustrious Florentine dynasty, is sent to Henry VIII's court with her brother to negotiate a trade alliance. With her sharp wit, refined elegance, and beguiling charm, she quickly becomes the centre of attention in a realm already ablaze with political and romantic intrigue. For King Henry, embroiled in a tempestuous relationship with Anne Boleyn, Vittoria is an irresistible distraction-a woman who embodies the sophistication and allure of a world beyond England's shores. For Anne, Vittoria is both a threat and a mirror, reflecting the precariousness of her own position as Henry's affections waver. As Vittoria navigates the treacherous waters of court politics, she must balance her family's ambitions with her own desires. Torn between duty and the unexpected stirrings of her heart, she finds herself drawn to Henry in ways she never anticipated. What begins as a calculated manoeuvre to secure her family's future soon spirals into a passionate love affair that will shape the fate of a kingdom. Henry VIII x oc

Jane Seymour was thought to be the next Queen of England, until the Pope decided to use the daughter of a Tsar to make Henry VIII cast the Seymour girl aside. Anastasia I of Russia will be the next Queen of England.

A prophecy foretells that only one girl is destined to cure the king.
