I found this to be an interesting and meticulously researched story of Anne Boleyn's life, portraying her as a religious and moral woman with strong love for her husband, King Henry VIII. That is not to say that she was not appreciated and admired by other men. In this story, Anne does not commit adultery, although she is put on trial for it. During their marriage, she played an active part in the political decisions that Henry VIII made. I really enjoyed learning more about the family members and people at court who were well fleshed out. The touching final days of her life were especially well written by the author. Highly recommend this historical novel.
