Painted Lady (Butterfly Book 1)
London 1642, the eve of the Enlish Civil War...
Lady Mary Villiers, beautiful ward of King Charles I and daughter of his father's favourite, is the pampered darling of the doomed royal court. Prince Rupert of the Rhine, the King's charismatic nephew, is a brilliant soldier and man of science.
Against the turbulent background of a nation at war with itself, is their a relationship made in heaven or a romance as ill-fated as the King himself?
