Title : One of Two Roses - Juliette Benzoni - book
Summary :
Destined to become Queen of England by marrying the weak and pious Henry IV, the beautiful Margaret of Anjou was only fourteen years old in the spring of 1444. Intelligent and ambitious, she soon assumed the responsibility of power with firmness. But her tumultuous love affairs and her French origins quickly earned her the hostility of the people, won over to the cause of the Duke of York, the young queen's mortal enemy. Thus began the Civil War of the Two Roses, a fratricidal struggle that would tear England apart for thirty years...
Desperately trying to save her husband's throne, Margaret has only one hope: that her son, young Edward, will one day rule England. From bloody battles to unhappy passions, Margaret will not escape her tragic destiny, that of a warrior heroine merciless to her enemies and too weak for her lovers.
