O knihe

Isabella of Portugal believes deep in her royal soul that her destiny is tied to just one man. Should she wait in hope, join a convent, or start fighting for what she knows is rightfully hers? The year is 1522 and Isabella of Portugal has only two choices in life: to wed the handsome and powerful Holy Roman Emperor Charles V or don a habit and betroth herself to God. Unfortunately, her future husband is flitting around Europe doing what emperors do-wielding his sword, negotiating the expansion of his territories, and charming kings and queens. It appears he's completely forgotten a wife and heir are needed if the Habsburg dynasty is to continue. Until, that is, he finally sees sense and travels to Seville to claim his princess bride. From that moment on, Charles's life is never the same. He's utterly captivated by beautiful Isabella. She is intelligent, alluring, and a political force to be reckoned with. Charles is as smitten as he is in awe of his new wife. But the sixteenth century is a time of turbulence and unease, a maelstrom of battles and deceit. With Henry VIII causing havoc with Rome and King Francis a thorn in the emperor's side, can Charles keep his empress happy, safe, and satisfied? Will time apart dampen their desires for each other, and will they get their longed-for fairy-tale ending? Hawk Castle Series Loved by the Last Knight Adored by the Archduke Embraced by the Emperor Note: This series is part of Dragonblade's Flame line, so this is a scorching-hot read with open-door steam.
