Royal Love Stories
Ruled by responsibility, forbidden from marrying for true love ... royal love stories are often far removed from the fairy tale romances of children's storybooks. In Royal Love Stories the true tales of royal affairs of the heart are laid bare. From the tragic love story of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette to the controversial marriage of Edward VIII to American divorcee Wallis Simpson; and from Ludwig I of Bavaria's obsession with his mistress Lola Montez to the undying love between Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra, the 14 love stories in this book provide fascinating insights into royal love over the last seven centuries and reveal the surprising truth about the real-life emotions behind love's most enduring fairy tales.
