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.

When faced with a choice, Lord Henry Clarke decided to become a famous and accomplished archaeologist rather than a happily married man to the woman of his heart. Now, at the age of one-and-forty, he lives a comfortable life as a bachelor, working as a professor at the University of London and paying regular visits to his two devoted lovers. His life takes an abrupt turn, when his childless older brother commits suicide, making him the next Duke of Grantchester. Yet that's a minor obstacle compared to the fact that he'll also have to marry to keep the money in the family... Miss Sabrina Hartley has New York at her feet... and perhaps all of America! But only one person knows who's behind the pseudonym that pens the most daring and bestselling erotic novels. When, at the age of one-and-thirty, she sees her younger cousin get married, she decides to turn the fiction of her stories into reality. However, her plans are soon thwarted by a series of telegrams from England - in order to keep half of her vast fortune, Sabrina must marry the current Duke of Grantchester as a direct result of an old agreement between their late fathers, Mr Hartley and Lord Clarke. Despite her best friend's warnings, Sabrina somewhat naively sets off to see if she can be happy in England... ...only to discover to her dismay that Henry is a cold and starchy man, his family reject her out of hand, and even the weather is dreadful almost every day! Will she find a way to her husband's heart or will she fulfill her darkest and most forbidden fantasies in the secret embrace of someone else?
