No. Never.
Mary Tudor's world falls apart when her father, King Henry VIII, abandons her mother and marries his mistress, Anne Boleyn. Banished to a cold lonely castle, far from family and friends, Mary wears rags instead of silk and longs for her old, privileged life at the court. Her humiliation is complete when Anne orders her to serve as maid to her half-sister, Elizabeth, the new princess and heir. Yet even as she sees her future snatched away, Mary is determined to reclaim her destiny...
Blood is thicker than water-
unless the kind decrees otherwise.
