But take a closer look, and you will see the burgundy blood that stains the hands of those standing up high. Their souls are marked with treachery, and the scars of betrayal mar their skin. But for power, it is a small price to pay. And in the heart of it all is Lady Anne Winterbourne, a little girl who dreams of becoming queen.

Edmund, the Duke of Cindertrappe grew up alone in the bitter north, his throne stolen from him.

Violent Delights (Violent Delights Book 1) by kullman
22 parts Complete
In January 1328 fourteen year old Philippa sets sail for England, where her arranged marriage to the young King Edward awaits her. Philippa finds England a hotbed of political intrigue, with Edward's father dead under mysterious circumstances, and his mother eager to take control of the throne. Scheming nobles, a vicious dowager queen, loyal servants, jousts, and psychological warfare ensues. Can Philippa navigate her way through the mess of English politics while forging a relationship with her new husband? Based on the fascinating true story. Trigger/Content warning: this is primarily YA, however, due to the fact that the teenage characters are married there is extended discussion regarding the fact that the characters are expected to have sex. Nothing graphic or particularly steamy on page, but true to reality the teenage characters are in fact married. Some brief violence. Some brief profanity. Some psychological discussions regarding family relationships.
