Publishers Description: A novel of the devout young woman who became the unwilling object of King Henry VIIIs ardor - and the mother of his only son. In this third book in the epic Six Tudor Queens series, the acclaimed historian and best-selling author brings new insight to this dramatic story, showing how pure fear for her life determined Jane Seymours actions. Twenty-five-year-old Jane Seymour wants nothing more than to become a nun. But her ambitious father has forced her to live at court as lady-in-waiting to Queen Katherine of Aragon, a fellow Catholic whom she soon comes to love and admire. So Jane is appalled when King Henry shunts Katherine aside in his lustful pursuit of Anne Boleyn, but even more so when he takes Annes life in his rush to wed - Jane herself! Unwilling to marry but terrified to resist Henrys advances for fear she might share Annes fate, and propelled by her family, Jane becomes queen of England a mere 10 days after Annes execution. She knows she must produce a male heir without fail. Her very life depends on it.2018 Alison Weir (P)2018 Recorded Books
