She learned from the mistakes of queens before her. She played the court's game with care. And she still paid the ultimate price.

Jane Seymour spent six years watching queens fall. Catherine of Aragon, undone by court politics and her steadfastness. Anne Boleyn, brought down by intrigue, ambition, and the dangerous favor of a king. As a lady-in-waiting to both, Jane catalogued every misstep, every fatal error, every moment a king's favor could turn to wrath.

When Henry VIII's eyes turn to her, Jane knows exactly what she must do: be gentle where Anne was sharp, silent where Catherine was defiant, calm where both were passionate. She will be the perfect queen - modest, compliant, invisible in everything except her virtue.

But perfection comes at a price. Survival demands sacrifice: of voice, of conscience, of self. Jane reconciles Henry with his daughter, Mary. She gives him the son he has longed for. And twelve days later, she's dead.

In this Tudor novella of intelligence, ambition, and impossible choices, Jane Seymour emerges not as the meek wife of legend, but as the quiet queen who understood the deadly game of court - and paid the highest possible price for her careful strategy.

Perfect for readers of historical fiction and anyone captivated by the hidden power of the underestimated queen. Meant to be a quick escape. Although part of a series, this novella can be read as a standalone.
