Who should I choose: My brother or my husband? When Maria’s brother asks her to marry the king she agrees since she believes that her brother will soon make a widow of her, since he wants the throne for himself. In return for her freedom after the marriage she has to spy on her new husband, King Jonathan. But as she learns more about her new husband, King Jonathan, it becomes more and more difficult for her to decide who she should be loyal to. She might gain more from siding with her husband in stead of her brother, not only freedom to do act as she wishes, but perhaps even love. If you like a historical medieval love story with an arranged marriage, lost of intrigues, a bit of fantasy and a happy ending, this might be for you. The Queen’s Choice is the first book in the series Dynasties and Desire about a fictive Danish medieval court.

Daughter of a murderer. Duchess of Brittany. The future Queen of England. Joanna of Navarre knows her place in society. And defies it. Forthright, unemotional and politically minded, she is more than a match for the men in the court of Brittany. And when she inherits control of her lands after her husband's death, it's a testament to her intellect and loyal duty. Then comes an unexpected proposal — marriage to Henry IV, King of England. The price? Abandoning her homeland, leaving her children, and sacrificing her independence. Henry's hold on the crown is unsteady and war is brewing. Crossing the channel is a dangerous prospect. If Joanna's pride will allow it, this could be a chance to unite two nations. But pride comes before a fall, and there are many who conspire to watch Joanna tumble from the English throne...

Eleanor's patrilineal descent, from a lineage already prestigious enough to have produced an empress in the eleventh century, gave her the lordship of Aquitaine. But marriage re-emphasized her sex which, in the medieval scheme of gender-power relations relegated her to the position of Lady in relation to her Lordly husbands. In this collection, essays provide a context for Eleanor's life and further an evolving understanding of Eleanor's multifaceted career. A valuable collection on the greatest heiress of the medieval period.
