Produktbeschreibung

More like a gangland war for turf and loot than chivalry, the War of Roses disrupted the life of the English commoners for hundreds of years. Roan Rose is the story of one of these, a girl born on the Yorkshire dales. When the Countess of Warwick, decides to take sturdy, gentle Rose to Middleham Castle to be companion and bed-time poppet for her youngest daughter, her fate is changed forever. Rose bonds strongly with Anne Neville, her young mistress. She also meets a royal boy enduring his knightly training-Richard of Gloucester, King Edward's little brother. The noble children have illness and accidents as they grow, but Rose remains a constant, always there to nurse and serve. Rose bears intimate witness to the passions, betrayals, battles and all the reversals of fortune which will shape her lady's life-and her own. Anne Neville will briefly become a Queen, and Richard, Rose's secret love, will become a King, one whose name has become synonymous with evil. When the King is betrayed and slain at Bosworth Field, Rose returns to a peasant's hard life. She has one final service to perform.

Autorenporträt

Not all who wander are lost." Juliet Waldron was baptized in the yellow spring of a small Ohio farm town. She earned a B. A. in English, but has worked at jobs ranging from artist's model to brokerage. Twenty-five years ago, after the kids left home, she dropped out of 9-5 and began to write, hoping to create a genuine time travel experience for herself-and her readers-by researching herself into the Past. Mozart's Wife won the 1st Independent e-Book Award. Genesee originally won the 2003 Epic Award for Best Historical, and she's delighted that it's available again from Books We Love. She enjoys cats, long hikes, history books and making messy gardens with native plants. She's happy to ride behind her husband on his big "bucket list" sport bike.
