A “spellbinding” and “deeply intelligent” historical novel about Marie Antoinette on the eve of the French Revolution (The Washington Post ) Through the untold love story between Marie Antoinette and Swedish aristocrat Axel von Fersen, acclaimed author Francine du Plessix Gray weaves history with romance in a captivating novel that also offers a fresh vision of the French Revolution. Paris, 1774. The dashing nobleman meets nineteen-year-old Marie Antoinette at a masquerade ball. As their relationship deepens at Versailles, Fersen discovers the court’s secrets, even the startling erotic details of Marie Antoinette’s marriage. But this intimacy is disrupted when he leaves to join the American Revolution. When he returns in 1783, he finds France on the brink of disintegration. After the Revolution of 1789, the royal family is moved to the Tuileries and suffers increasingly harsh captivity. After a failed attempt to liberate them, Fersen goes home to Sweden where he soon meets his own tragic end: his fate is symbolic of the violent pace with which of the eighteenth century’s events transformed European culture.

Preface I would like to tell you that the Queen of Lovers We need you, is a fictional romantic novel based on multichannel travels for love and espionage in our world where people practice various lifestyles in love & work. This magnificent espionage began in the United States of America where I was encountered to fall in love with the Queen of lovers who changed my lifestyle into the unknown of the dangerous world of counter espionage and betrayals among the leading intelligence communities. It wasn't easy job to fall in love with a spymaster who's been carrying out covert operations around the world, and it was very difficult challenge for me to master her underground strategic intelligence and reconnaissance while I was still interesting in love with the Queen of lovers. We'd arranged many ins and outs for our love affairs in emotional romance but we're very suspicious to divulge our normal jobs to each other until I suspected her that she was deliberately working for the government in counter espionage operations locally, regionally and globally. I didn't really like to meet with spymaster to be as my Queen of lovers in the world but everything has been predestined, and we couldn't decide who to fall in love? However; our Lord is The Most Gracious and The Most Merciful who made possible for us to interact and fall in love with each other. Romance & Lovers are extremely interconnected friendly in this world where people chose their different ways of love involvement or love discourage in envy anyhow; few people succeeded to keep their promises until one of them retires from sexual curiosity or dies. It's very rare to meet your spouse as the government spymaster, and if you didn't know before then you're highly at risk to be assassinated before you fizzle out her top level security clearance in some countries. My Queen of lovers and I went to visit different continents such as Asia, Australia, Africa, The Caribbean, South America & Parts of North America. Weve met a lot of multicultural and multiracial nationalities who committed to live and work for better democracy in love than their governments, which my Queen of lovers has been spying on. I couldn't handle the devilish stress of espionage in top secrets from the governments, which have been opposite to the national and security interests of our beloved country within the nations of many nationalities. Love in destiny or without destiny, well taste it carefully and legally but when you fall in love with spymaster then you'll always meet undetectable situations and anonymous hunters who can be anything with credentials from the government to cover up dirty jobs. Don't be a victim of spymaster! You better always ask before you make any relationship with somebody! I love my Queen of lovers finally, and you taught me a lot in governmental secrecy, and how a spymaster acts as a romantic lover to use my linguistic abilities during secretive missions in various continents. I love you my Queen!

Power-hungry monarch, cold-blooded murderer, obsessive monster—who could love such a man? Set against the glittering courts of sixteenth-century Europe, the Spain of the dreaded Inquisition, and the tortured England of Bloody Mary, For a Queen’s Love is the story of Philip II of Spain—and of the women who loved him as a husband and father. Philip was a dark and troubled man, who, like many royals, had been robbed of his childhood. His first marriage, a romantic union with childlike Maria Manoela, brought him tragedy and a troublesome son, Don Carlos. Then followed marriage with the jealously possessive Mary Tudor, a political union that ultimately failed to bring Philip an heir that would solidify the unified power he so deeply desired. And finally, marriage again to a young bride Philip stole from his unbalanced son, sowing the seeds of brutal murder. But history is seldom what it seems, and in the hands of beloved author Jean Plaidy, we hear another side to the story of Philip II—the most powerful of kings who was at once fanatic, murderer, husband, father, and lover.
