Description
Despite her doubts, Margaret falls under the spell of her adopted home. But she has rivals. While Jamie is an affectionate husband, he is not a faithful one. And providing an heir cannot guarantee Margaret's safety when Jamie leads an invading army against her own brother, Henry VIII. In the wake of tragic loss she falls prey to the attentions of the ambitious Earl of Angus--a move that brings Scotland to the brink of anarchy. Beset by betrayal, secret alliances, and the vagaries of her own heart, Margaret has one overriding ambition--to preserve the crown of Scotland for her son, no matter what the cost.
Exquisitely detailed and poignant, The Forgotten Queen vividly depicts the life and loves of an extraordinary woman who helped shape the fate of two kingdoms--and in time, became the means of uniting them.

Advance Praise
Praise for the writing of D. L. Bogdan:
“Many disrupting, disturbing and engaging twists and turns of plot, treachery and love. Changing viewpoints weave a tapestry richer than the usual romance – which this isn’t. Definitely a step above.” – The Historical Novels Review on THE SUMERTON WOMEN
“Bogdan’s writing is lush and full of details…The historical details are engaging, and readers will get a good sense of noble life in the 16th century, with its emphasis on the importance of young wives producing heirs.” – VOYA Magazine on THE SUMERTON WOMEN
“Careful research and a gift for realistic and sympathetic portrayals give Bogdan’s novel a sense of time and place.” – RT Book Reviews on RIVALS IN THE TUDOR COURT

“Throbs with intensity as it lays bare the secret delights of Tudor court life and the sudden, lethal terrors. A tale of innocence and ruthless ambition locked in a love-hate embrace.” - Barbara Kyle, author of The King's Daughter
