The Cousin's War #3
New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory masterfully weaves passion, adventure, and
witchcraft into the story of Jacquetta, Duchess of Bedford, who would survive
two reigns and two wars to become the first lady at the rival courts of both
Lancaster and York.
When
Jacquetta is married to the Duke of Bedford, English regent of France, he
introduces her to a mysterious world of learning and alchemy. Her only friend
in the great household is the duke’s squire Richard Woodville, who is at her
side when the duke’s death leaves her a wealthy young widow. The two become
lovers and marry in secret, returning to England to serve at the court of the
young King Henry VI, where Jacquetta becomes a close and loyal friend to his
new queen.
The
Woodvilles soon achieve a place at the very heart of the Lancaster court,
though Jacquetta can sense the growing threat from the people of England and
the danger of their royal York rivals. As Jacquetta fights for her king and her
queen, she can see an extraordinary and unexpected future for her daughter
Elizabeth: a change of fortune, the throne of England, and the white rose of
York . . .

The Other Boleyn Girl was my first Gregory novel, and I read several more soon after that. More recently I've read negative comments re. her research and lack thereof. So I have not read any of her more recent novels. Perhaps it's time to try another.

I've read all the books about Henry VIII's wives and daughters. Philippa Gregory is one of my favorite historical authors.
