'I dreamt about her again tonight. The woman whose name I don't know and whose face remains ever obscured...I don't know who this woman is, but I have a dreadful and inexplicable feeling that, one day, I will...'
Many of us have heard of the story of Henry VIII and his six wives, but so often we take this story without hearing their points of view. As the second instalment in my Tudor wives series, To Keep a King explores the harrowing and courageous journey of Katherine of Aragon, the first wife.
Can Katherine survive the political games and the difficulties of being queen in a new country, all whilst battling her complicated past?

The Arranged Marriage (The Tudor's Series)
***MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY*** Following the divorce of his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, Henry VIII of England continues on his search for a new Queen. Enduring the hatred of his people that once screamed his name out of love and the orders from his Privy Council, Henry's freedom to choose his future Queen is jeopardized when his Chief Minister, Thomas Cromwell, 1st Earl of Essex, introduces the famous, Lady Anne Boleyn. Desperate for another heir, Henry is clearly blinded by love at the sight of Lady Boleyn. But will Henry's wish for a male heir be granted or will something else catch the King's eye? Read along as you watch the fate of Henry VIII's legacy change forever. Based on the Showtime Series 'The Tudors'. This book will take a slight curvature involving the original series, since my other book 'Long May She Reign' and the rest of the following, tie into the Tudor family. There will be an overlap in a few of the chapters but will mainly focus on the Tudors. Keep in mind this is a FANFIC, this story won't follow Henry's life every step of the way. His last wife won't be mentioned, and the 4th and 5th will be written around the new characters.Terminé
Like Fire and Powder (Violent Delights Book 18)
The 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. Trigger/ Content Warning: Bloody violence, survivor's guilt, and sexual assault are all discussed on page. A couple of characters have traumatic flashbacks to past violence. Some suggestive conversations and mildly sexual content. Some brief profanity.Terminé

The Six
'Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived." In this way, the six wives of Henry VIII were remembered not for how they lived, but in the way they died. It is impossible to know exactly what they were thinking or had to go through, in having to marry this larger-than life King, so assured of his own rightness. It is impossible to know what their last thoughts were. But we can guess, and infer. Because these six women weren't simply paper-thin, flat cut-outs from hundreds of years ago; they were unique, and each had their own strength, and each had the fate to marry King Henry VIII, and dance around this large maypole. *Shorts on the six wives of Henry VIII; their lives, their deaths*Terminé
To Catch A King
'...The first thing I notice about him is his weight. The rumours are true: he is spoilt and fat, so different from the young Renaissance prince I have heard he once was. His padded garments only make him look swollen and stout, not stronger. His red hair is thinning and tinged grey, along with his beard... This is the man I must seduce.' - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Winter 1539. The young, beautiful Catherine Howard leaves her residence to go and serve the future Queen of England, Anne of Cleves, a German Protestant. But beneath this seemingly simple task, a deeper and much more complex plot is at hand. Charged with the same task as her infamous cousin Anne Boleyn, Catherine must use all of her charm and wit to seduce King Henry VIII and save the Howards from permanent destruction. In this tale of intrigue, deception and injustice, the true story of Catherine Howard's rise and fall from power is told based on real historical events and people. Can Catherine betray a Queen and friend that she has grown fond of? Can she ever escape the curse of her family name and history? Can she catch the King before it is too late?Terminé

A Fortress of Feathers
In a kingdom ruled by men, a young Spanish woman is handed over to England to be the Tudor's new toy, and eventually, the queen. This woman is Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII. Her journey began long before her marriage and ascension to queen, and ended long after she was replaced by the infamous Anne Boleyn. Her story is often overshadowed and forgotten, but she may be one of the most remarkable women of her time. In the royal court, the walls have ears, and the loyalties of the servants and spies determines who really rules the kingdom. Watch through the eyes of one of Catherine's most trusted maidservants and whisperers, and observe the glamorous world of Catherine of Aragon and her downfall at the hands of lust and love. HISTORICAL DISCLAIMER-- This story is backed by history, though there are many characters of my own imagination. The four maidservants are characters that I created, however, places, events, and many other things are true. If you see an error, ask me about it and I will tell you if it was meant to be that way or not.Terminé
