Like Fire and Powder (Violent Delights Book 18)
20 Partes Concluida Contenido adultoThe War of the Roses has ended.
After a thirty year power struggle, House Tudor reigns victorious, and Henry VII has crowned himself King of England by right of conquest. This is a final, very bloody revenge for the deaths of his Lancaster cousins during the War of the Roses.
Now, Henry has to win the hearts of the people of England, and more importantly that of his future wife, Elizabeth of York, who is the niece of the king Henry just deposed and murdered. Henry has always been much better with numbers and account books than he has charm, much less charming women. And Elizabeth has no intention of being charmed.
Both, however, know that the union is in the best interest of the people of England. Enemies to Lovers has never been quite this dramatic.
Inspired by the true story of one of the most successful marriages in English history.
In all technicality this comes before Son of Prophesy, but that actually explains the War of the Roses whereas this does not go through the whole thing.
