ABOUT THE BOOK
SYNOPSIS
delves into the early life of the legendary Eleanor of Aquitaine in her new historical novel. After her father's sudden death, fifteen-year-old Eleanor is quickly crowned Duchess of Aquitaine and betrothed to King Louis VII. When her new husband cannot pronounce her given name, Alienor becomes Eleanor, Queen of France.
Although Louis is enamored of his bride, the newly crowned king is easily manipulated by the church and a God that Eleanor doesn't believe in. Now, if she can find the strength to fight for what she wants, Eleanor may finally find the passion she has longed for, and the means to fulfill her legacy as Queen.

Thanks for the giveaway! Eleanor of Aquitaine has been an interesting historical figure for me since reading the Royal Diaries novel about her and "A Proud Taste for Scarlet and Miniver" a few years back.
