The Queen’s Promise by Lyn Andrews is the story of Anne Boleyn and Henry Percy, scheduled to be released on September 27. I looks like an interesting read, especially considering that the novel focusses on Anne’s life before she became Henry VIII’s wife.
Here is the synopsis:
The first historical epic from Lyn Andrews, the Sunday Times bestselling author, takes a fresh new look at the compelling figure of Anne Boleyn and her life before she married Henry VIII.
From the bestselling author Lyn Andrews comes a compelling historical epic set at the endlessly fascinating Tudor court about the most infamous woman of the age – Anne Boleyn – and the man who loved her before she became queen.
From the moment Henry Percy, the future Earl of Northumberland, first glimpses the beautiful Anne Boleyn he is captivated and quickly proposes marriage. Anne has been taught to use her charms to her advantage and to secure her family’s position of power at court. She sees that Henry Percy’s affection is sincere and agrees to marry him.
But a match of the heart has no place in a world where marriage is a political manoeuvre. Torn apart, the lovers are exiled to separate ends of the kingdom. For Henry a lifetime of duty awaits, while he remains true to the only woman he will ever love. But he is not the only man to be bewitched by Anne. And when King Henry VIII determines to make her his queen, the course of history is changed for ever…
I will certainly be adding this to my collection!
