~ 𝔗𝔥𝔬𝔰𝔢 𝔴𝔥𝔬'𝔳𝔢 𝔟𝔢𝔢𝔫 𝔪𝔞𝔡𝔢, 𝔠𝔞𝔫 𝔟𝔢 𝔲𝔫𝔪𝔞𝔡𝔢 ~ The year of our Lord 1467, and across the water France is a mere onlooker as England tears itself apart in the bloody cousins war until the Yorkist King Edward seeks allies, resulting in a treaty that aims for peace and promises to end the costly war waged by England against France for over a century. Hatred between the two countries runs deeper than the channel rarely separating them from each others throats but nevertheless the cunning King Louis accepts the pact sealed by the marriage of his eldest daughter, Princess Geneviève of France, to King Edward's youngest brother - Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Haughty, vain, almost fanatical in her piety and trained to bear a crown, Geneviève has no love for her English neighbours and favours other candidates for her illustrious hand but nevertheless is thrust into the heart of the Wars of the Roses with few allies and a husband she quickly resents. Trapped in the land of the enemy where knives are readily drawn in the marriage bed, Geneviève must learn to survive using her beauty, wit and political guile to master the game of smoke and mirrors the English and French so love to play. Bound to the tumultuous heart of fifteenth century England, can Geneviève endure against the ever changing tide of the cousin's war and campaigns waged between wilful women with words no less sharp than their men's swords? How far is she willing to go for the power she craves, the position she believes God desires for her? And when rebellion rears its head against her new kin, which way will her loyalties lie and how long will they endure?

Even the Tudors were no strangers to the march of feminism.

The story of the Princes in the Tower told from the perspective of Edward V.

A fictional story based on the true events of the Wars of the Roses, through the eyes of the three sons of York, Edward, George and Richard, from 1471 to 1478. The story begins at the Battle of Tewkesbury in 1471. The title of the story comes from the atmospheric event (nicknamed a Sun Dog but formally called a Parhelion) where there appears to be three suns in the sky.

Note- despite a French title, this story is in English! Title translation: 'All the Stars in the Sky' Updates every Wednesday. What if Margaret Beaufort never married Edmund Tudor? What if, in 1458, instead of marrying Henry Stafford, she married the heir to the house of York?... Margaret Beaufort is one year younger than the golden boy of York, Edward Plantagenet, Earl of March. For her, their hatred was set in stone long before their marriage, and desires nothing more than to live her life in a nunnery and serve only God. However, when Edward proves to be more amicable and accommodating than Margaret first thought, is there the possibility that they can love, despite being natural enemies?
