Upcoming 2011 HF Release: Queen Defiant by Anne O'Brien

Publish Date June 7th 2011
Format: Paperback 448 pp

Synopsis (From the Publisher):
"A riveting novel of Eleanor of Aquitaine's early adult years from the author of The Virgin Widow
Orphaned at a young age, Eleanor, Duchess of Aquitaine, seeks a strong husband to keep her hold on the vast lands that have made her the most powerful heiress in Europe. But her arranged marriage to Louis VII, King of France, is made disastrous by Louis's weakness of will and fanatical devotion to the Church. Eleanor defies her husband by risking her life on an adventurous Crusade, and even challenges the Pope himself. And in young, brilliant, mercurial Henry d'Anjou, she finds her soul mate-the one man who is audacious enough to claim her for his own and make her Queen of England."
