Though her path to the throne was long and paved with treachery, Jane Seymour would win the heart of her king—and heal her own.

Jane Seymour of Wiltshire is not meant to go to Court. Not a child like her, with her lack of beauty and no title. But family connections are enough to have her named to the bridal retinue of Mary Tudor. At the French Court, the plain and docile Jane meets the girl who will grow into her rival in years to come: the already charismatic and conniving Anne Boleyn.

Soon back home in the English countryside, Jane wants nothing more than peace and quiet—and the devotion of her childhood protector, William Dormer. But his family vows to keep them apart, and Jane is called back to Court to serve Katherine of Aragon, who is fighting for her life as Queen in the face of Anne Boleyn's open seduction of King Henry VIII.

In those turbulent years, Jane will learn the value of loyalty and honesty, while holding fast to her convictions. And it is her unblemished soul that will slowly rise above the chaos—and turn a king's head.

Contains mature themes.

Overall I enjoyed the book,having to get round the fact that it was obviously from Jane Seymour's point of view. There is NO evidence that Anne Boleyn was cruel to people in her time overseas. She ripped the pendant Henry had given Jane off Jane's neck after coming across them together,Jane on Henry's lap, and soon after she miscarried. Jane certainly wasn't Miss Innocent. I've read other books by this author which I've enjoyed. Narration Good.

Not for Anne Boleyn fans!

Overall, i loved the book. The narrator is excellent . such a soothing voice that's so pleasant to listen to. the characters all came alive with the way she masters the tone of voice thuout. My only real disappointment is the ending. the life of jane is a little drawn out. it covers her life thuout various stages, but then the author to have her marriage to henry is only worth a short chapter. and it's briefly covered in an epilogue. so, for myself, i feel there should be more. had there been the more i would have definitely given the 5 stars.

dissapointed with the ending

There seems to be many stories about Henry's wives, but there's barely any featuring Jane from her point of view. A bit of a slow start but not a bad story.
I, however, found the narrators' voices a little distracting; Jane has a 50 year old's upper crust accent, yet her brothers sound like second hand car salesmen. Her mother also a little too OTT.....it just doesn't flow well. Cromwell, a "commoner of low birth" sounds posher than Edward or Thomas Seymour.

A Jane Seymour novel for a change!
