A story about what it must have been like to be Mary Boleyn, the sister who Henry VIII loved before her sister Anne.

Who was the real Mary Boleyn? Was she the "Great Prostitute" or King Francis's "English Mare"?

She was Anne Boleyn's older sister whom we know very little about, but she does have her own story. Her affair with King Henry VIII lasted longer than her sister's marriage to him. She bore him one child for certain, her daughter Katherine, but was he the father of her son Henry?

She was sent to the court of France in the train of Mary Tudor when she was married to Louis XII. There she fell victim to Francis Valois who would succeed Louis as Francis I. Francis ruthlessly seduced her and abandoned her. Mary was sent home in disgrace and was married off at 20 to William Carey.

Around 1523 she came to the attention of Henry VIII, and her family pressured her into becoming Henry's mistress, hoping to gain from the liason. Then, the unexpected happened and she fell in love with him, but eventually he turned his attention to her sister Anne--and the rest is history.

I love the book "The Other Boleyn Girl" but I've tried to make this story a little more true to life, which I think Mary deserves.All Rights Reserved

The Arranged Marriage (The Tudor's Series) by Dat_AthRojas

***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.

Like Fire and Powder (Violent Delights Book 18) by kullman

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.

Henry's Mistress by AnneBT_

She was the most precious thing he ever had while growing up, she was sent away from him, she disappeared until after his marriage with the Spanish Infanta, he waited long for he to come back and now she was here. Henry/OC (Even though the girl in the cover is kitty Howard, she is not the girl I'm looking for to be Henry's mistress. This fic is going to be a little sick in terms of relationships so I hope you like it) 16+ maybe some hot scenes and crazy chapters you had been warned

The Last York Prince [AU] by echelon8394

HISTORICALLY INACCURATE: Based on Philippa Gregory "The White Princess" timeline, but AU: What if Richard III had a son before he was killed in Bosworth? Young Richard Plantagenet was brought up in court at the behest of his mother, Elizabeth of York, who claimed him as a bastard in hopes that her son with the previous king would be safe, but people knew it was not. Richard Plantagenet would always be a threat to the Tudors, but Jasper Tudor felt it was not right to kill a child, not when he can shape the young man, who looked so much like his late father, into a Tudor loyalist. Elizabeth Woodville feared for her grandson. Thinking that they had poisoned his mind, she sought to get the boy away from the Tudors. Richard was so much like his father. He was loyal, just and people support him. Margaret Beaufort may cut off his father's affinity, isolating the boy, but that doesn't mean no one can get to him. By sparing him, Elizabeth of York agreed to marry Henry Tudor. At what cost? Not able to acknowledge her son, Richard in public. Jasper Tudor took the child in and educated him the same way he did to Henry. Margaret, however, disagreed and hoped the boy to just..., disappeared. As he grew older, Richard learned more and more about his father, but he knew better than to listen to the Tudor propagandas. He was smart and careful whenever he's in court. Being one of the York princes, Elizabeth of York wondered. Would her son will be able to marry and have a family? She knew Richard had been on his own and she prayed he would be married and happy. From birth until his last breath, Richard Plantagenet lived his life, fighting for freedom and the love he wanted, refused to be subjected under Tudor's boot. Will Richard serve Tudors in obedience? Or will Richard fight to earn his rightful place as king?

It's me, Anne Boleyn by BarbieRivers

Anne Boleyn in a alternate universe (where she isn't beheaded) *one and only warning* Some historical things WILL be changed on purpose for the sake of the story, (they will be speaking modern English, not old medieval English). If you are looking to read a historical biography, I do NOT recommend reading this. This is a "what-if alternate universe" like 'My Lady Jane' series. If you are an avid historical nut about Tudors solely looking for complete historical accuracy, kindly move on please, this is not for you. I love the Tudors and their predecessors, The Plantagenets, and have been studying their history out of pure special interest for over a decade but this is TOTAL fanfiction.
