Description
The Morland Dynasty series brings to life the epic sweep of English history through the fictional lives of the Morland family. In 1434, Edward Morland arranges a marriage between his son Robert and Eleanor, young ward of the influential Beaufort family, in a bid for power and prestige. Eleanor is appalled at her arranged union with a "sheep farmer", yet secretly harbours feelings for Richard, Duke of York. As time passes, this unlikely match blossoms into a passionate and tender relationship, forming the foundation of the Morland dynasty. However, their happiness is short-lived, as they become embroiled in the bloody civil war that often tears families apart. This first book in the series masterfully weaves historical events with fictional lives, creating a rich and moving portrayal of English history during the Wars of the Roses.
