SECRET MARRIAGES:
Edward IV, Eleanor & Elizabeth
The Falcon and The Sun: The House of York, Book #2
by J.P. Reedman
In the turbulent clashes for England's throne, Eleanor Talbot finds herself newly widowed and entangled in a dangerous secret. After a clandestine marriage to Edward, the young, handsome, newly proclaimed King, she believes love can conquer all.
But after the blood-soaked battles of Mortimer’s Cross and Towton, Edward's heart strays to another widow, the captivating Elizabeth Woodville, whom he also marries in a clandestine rite. A few months later, he announces her as his new queen. As Eleanor grapples with Edward's betrayal and seeks solace in her faith, her past threatens to unravel everything.
Can she keep her secret hidden? The knowledge she has endangered Edward's throne...and thus Eleanor's life.
A tale of love, loyalty, betrayal, and the price of ambition spanning two families, the Talbots and the Woodvilles, and two women both similar and yet very different. One who became Queen of England, and one who might have been.

"A very readable and well researched insight into the secret marriage of Edward IV and Eleanor Butler, which, if true, made his subsequent marriage to Elizabeth Woodville invalid and the Princes in the Tower illegitimate. ...
It is an excellent read, especially for lovers of Richard III, and brings Eleanor's existence to life."
