A QUEEN’S GAME 💖

In the last glittering decade of European empires, courts, and kings, three young women are on a collision course with history—and with each other. 

Alix of Hesse is Queen Victoria’s favorite granddaughter, so she can expect to end up with a prince . . . except that the prince she’s falling for is not the one she’s supposed to marry.

Hélène d’Orléans, daughter of the exiled King of France, doesn’t mind being a former princess; it gives her more opportunity to break the rules. Like running around with the handsome, charming, and very much off-limits heir to the British throne, Prince Eddy.

Then there’s May of Teck. After spending her entire life on the fringes of the royal world, May is determined to marry a prince—and not just any prince, but the future king.
You can register for this event on the Library’s website or through the link in our bio! We can’t wait to see you King’s and Queen’s there!! 👑
