The Queen Who Brought Peace
(2026)(The second book in the Women Behind The Tudor Crown series)
A Story by Shania Thorne
She was born a princess, declared illegitimate, and crowned a queen.
History remembers the king. It forgets the woman who made his reign possible.
Elizabeth of York came to her marriage with loss written into her blood: a dead father, vanished brothers, and a kingdom that saw her as a symbol rather than a person. As the wife of Henry VII, she is expected to unite two warring houses. What no one expects is that she will quietly and deliberately shape the future of England from within.
But the past does not stay buried.
When a claimant emerges overseas - insisting he is her long-lost brother, the prince who vanished into the Tower - Elizabeth must face the one question she has buried for years:
Not whether he is real.
Whether she is willing to face the past and know the truth.
Because the truth could cost her everything - her marriage, her children, her reign, and the fragile peace she has fought so long to build.
A richly imagined historical fiction novella, The Queen Who Brought Peace gives a voice to the woman at the center of the Tudor dynasty, and reveals the private cost of holding a kingdom, a family, and herself together. Part of a series, this novella can also be read as a standalone and is meant to be a short escape to another time and place.
Genre: Historical
