"Grief is the price we pay for love." Magdalena of Valois-Burgundy was young, beautiful, and a noblewoman. But only intelligence and a sharp wit could save her in the court of greedy vipers. 1458 was the year Henry VI tried to bring peace to the warring English Lords with the Loveday Event. All of Europe had been watching the English squabble for more than a decade, including Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. All of Europe is then flabbergasted when Philip the Good agrees to give his granddaughter, Magdalena of Valois-Burgundy, to the Prince of Wales, Edward of Lancaster. Every court in Christendom is convinced that the Duke has gone as mad as King Henry. Young Magdalena herself is desperate to stay in the comfort of her homeland after years in the French Court. However, her grandfather's decision is final and she is thrust into a court of vipers. Her life has been turned upside-down. Now she must learn to survive in a court where she has too many enemies and too little friends, where every rose has innumerable thorns, where there are too many who wish to see her fallen. Will she survive? Will she be another puppet, another vessel of wasted potential, another rose shunned because a brighter flower was spotted? Read to find out!
