An Indiscreet Princess

An Indiscreet Princess

Happy Monday! We are back home after a 10 hour round trip for baseball this weekend in Fargo for Web, and Iโ€™m so happy to spend today at home, because I just started the juiciest historical fiction book.

Iโ€™m currently loving ๐—”๐—ป ๐—œ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€ and all the royal drama, personalities, and seeing inside the family dynamics with Queen Victoria and her children. So far this is quite the fast paced story, and Iโ€™m in love with Louiseโ€™s spunk and rebel attitude!

This exciting historical fiction book hits the stands tomorrow so check it out now!

As the fourth daughter of the perpetually in-mourning Queen Victoria, Princess Louiseโ€™s life is more a gilded prison than a fairy tale. Expected to sit quietly next to her mother with down-cast eyes, Louise vows to escape the stultifying royal court. Blessed with beauty, artistic talent, and a common touch, she creates a life outside the walled-in existence of the palace grounds by attending the National Art Training Schoolโ€”where she shockingly learns to sculpt nude models while falling passionately in love with famed sculptor Joseph Edgar Boehm.

But even as Louise cultivates a life outside the palace, she is constantly reminded that even royal rebels must heed the call of dutyโ€”and for a princess that means marriage. Refusing to leave England, she agrees to a match with the Duke of Argyll, and although her heart belongs to another, she is determined to act out her public role perfectly, even if her private life teeters on the brink of scandal. But when a near fatal accident forces Louise back under her motherโ€™s iron rule, she realizes she must choose: give in to the grief of lost love or find the strength to fight for her unconventional life.
