Queen Charlotte Sophia : A Royal Affair – 9781914344879

Newly crowned King George III must marry, but cannot wed the woman he loves – Catholic Lady Sarah Lennox. And so, a search begins for an appropriate Queen… In comes Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz.

For years Charlotte has hidden her ethnicity using white Elizabethan makeup to help her title-rich but cash-poor family survive. An opportunity to marry the British king is one that she can’t pass up, but beyond the secret of her identity, Charlotte is also in love with someone else – the talented but poor commoner, Johann Christian Bach (son of JS Bach). Does King George give up Lady Sarah for duty to crown and country? Will Queen Charlotte ever see Bach again? And what of her family secret and quest for answers?A daughter.

A lover. A fighter. A Queen.
