From the Publisher

Ever since the fateful night Drew snuck out of his parents’ house and found a tearful Tasha hiding outside her bedroom window, they’ve been the best of friends. Their bond strengthened throughout their childhood, forged by their mutual struggles with abusive families, and they swore to be in each other’s lives forever. Life, however, had different plans for them, and following college graduation, their careers and shifting priorities pulled them miles apart.

But when Drew is nominated for a professional distinction that will be awarded in the city where Tasha now lives and decides to stay for a week, he and Tasha reunite without knowing this trip will change the course of their lives and challenge the connection they were once so certain of. The trip brings to light Drew’s years-old feelings for Tasha, but while he’s ready to see where a new kind of love could take them, Tasha pulls away from him, plagued by the unhealed wounds of her childhood.

When she hits rock bottom, Tasha finally acknowledges the harmful patterns she’s been perpetuating in her own life in a bid to outrun her past. No longer able to run from Drew’s feelings for her—or hers for him—she must summon the courage to heal... or risk losing Drew forever.

Jane Seymour An Illustrated Life - By Carol Ann Johnston ~ SO WORTH THE READING!

 

Release Date: August 30, 2023

Pen & Sword, History Publishing

 

About the Author

Carol-Ann Johnston was born and raised in Carlisle where she developed a love of Tudor history, especially Henry VIII’s wives. She runs the Facebook page Jane Seymour: Henry VIII’s Third Wife page on Facebook when she is not working for the NHS as a Patient Care Advisor.

 

From the Publisher

Jane Seymour is the wife of Henry VIII we know the least about, often written off as ‘Plain Jane’. Queen of England for just seventeen months, during her life Jane witnessed some of the most extraordinary events ever to take place in English history, later becoming a part of them. Jane ensured her place in Henry’s affections by giving him his much longed for male heir only to tragically lose her life twelve days later leaving behind a motherless son and a devastated husband. For the remainder of his life Henry would honor the mother of his only legitimate son and would come to regard Jane as his ‘true and loving wife’.

But who was Jane Seymour? Throughout this illustrated book we will find a woman who was either saint or sinner, but a human being with her own beliefs and causes.

 

My Thoughts

                    

Jane Seymour by Carol-Ann Johnston is a wonderful, engaging historical book set during Jane’s time at court and her short reign as King Henry’s wife and Queen. It is very clear the author meticulously researched this era, and it made this book such a delight to read!  

 

I appreciated the author’s comments as they were very helpful and interesting.  I loved looking at the beautiful pictures included in this book as well.  Overall, I highly recommend reading this book!

 

                                5 Stars!
