Description
1419, the coast of France
In the troubled times of Henry V’s attempts to take the throne of France, Louise Saulnier and her fellow Frenchmen are forced into wild living by the English.
Stripped of the protection of her family’s wealth, Louise survives under the guise of a young boy, Louis, to escape the atrocities towards women that she has witnessed.
But danger never wanders far and soon it is her own sister Marguerite who is taken by the foreign men.
With only the face of the abductor etched into her memory, Louise risks everything to rescue her sister.
When it appears that this very man and his brother is the only key to her success, Louise faces a terrible choice: give in to the Englishmen and betray her beloved Northern France, or lose Marguerite.
Flitting between her two identities, Louise crosses boundaries both of land and sea and of the heart.
She ventures into new territories and is not only swept up into the clash of the two countries, but also of the two brothers…
Love's Intrigue is a captivating work of historical fiction which focuses on the pain of identity and the passion of love.
June Francis was born in Blackpool during the war, but bred in Liverpool. Her father taught her the alphabet from a signwriters’ book of lettering, and told her stories from memory; so passing on a love of storytelling. She has had many articles published, as well as short stories broadcast, but her first love has always been the historical novel. History has always been a passion with her — due, she says, to an incurable curiosity about the past.
