Queen of Lions

England, 1445.

When the beautiful Margaret of Anjou marries King Henry VI of England, she is a virgin who longs for love, power, wealth, and a son.

After arriving in England she learns that her deeply religious and delicate husband is unwilling to satisfy her desires and there seems to be no hope of producing an heir.

He is not the powerful man she had imagined and she is shocked to learn he does not hunt, is not properly trained in the art of battle and has no interest in entertaining guests. />

Though her husband cannot quench her desires, there are others at court who can...

Under her banner of the dangerous, passionate red rose, Margaret draws men to her, to fight and die for her, never losing her fierce ambition, never satisfied with less than all.

And as the Wars of the Roses looms, she rides among her troops, rallying her ‘lions’ to the glorious cause.

This is Margaret’s sensational story, the story of a fifteen-year-old bride who became the all-powerful Queen of Lions.

This is a thrilling tale of a struggle not only for a crown, but for survival.

Under the banner of the red rose burn passion, beauty and fierce ambition...
