Falling Pomegranate Seeds: All Manner of Things
Winter, 1539.
Too ill to travel from her London home, María de Salinas writes a letter to her daughter Katherine, the young duchess of Suffolk. A letter telling of her life: a life intertwined with her friend and cousin Catalina of Aragon, the youngest child of Isabel of Castile. It is a letter to help her daughter understand the choices she has made in her life, beginning from the time she keeps her vow to Catalina to share her life of exile in England.
Friendship.
Betrayal.
Hatred.
Forgiveness.
Will love win out in the end?

Praise for All Manner of Things:
“...author Dunn stands alongside rival authors of Tudor England, Jean Plaidy and Philippa Gregory. You immediately feel part of Catalina's inner court, suffer with them, and share their joys and sorrows, pain, and fear. Dunn sets you into that world with great skill.”
~ Historical Novel Reviews
“rom a tender, yet forbidden, romance to the death of her dearest friend, Falling Pomegranate Seeds: All Manner of Things, Book #2 by Wendy J. Dunn is the unforgettable story of María de Eresby as she, along with Catalina of Aragon, learns to dance to a decidedly deadly Tudor tune.”
~ The Coffee Pot Book Club, 5* Review
“f Tudor history is your passion - or even if it's not - this is a book to enjoy again and again.”
~ The Historical Fiction Company, 5* Review
