The story of Joan de Geneville unfolds amidst the turmoil of love and war. She was the wife of one of England's most infamous traitors, Roger Mortimer. After the death of her father in 1292, Joan became one of the greatest English heiresses of her generation. In a time when women were expected to be subservient, she was raised by her mother to command. Educated by her tutors, Joan became a formidable woman in her own right.
When Joan was married, her husband's lust for power knew no bounds. She was forced to choose between her duty to her King and her loyalty to her husband. This is the story of the Forgotten Women of History Series, Book One.
Joan de Geneville's life was shaped by the turbulent events of her era. As the daughter of a prominent family, she was destined for a significant role in the political landscape of England. Her father's passing thrust her into the spotlight, making her one of the most sought-after heiresses of her time.
Defying the societal norms of the era, Joan was raised by her mother to be a woman of authority and influence. Her education under the guidance of skilled tutors instilled in her a remarkable intellect and a keen understanding of the complexities of the world around her. This transformation into a formidable woman would prove instrumental in the choices she would face.
When Joan's fate became entwined with that of Roger Mortimer, her husband's ambition and lust for power threatened to consume her. Torn between her loyalty to her husband and her duty to the Crown, Joan found herself navigating a treacherous path, where the lines between love, betrayal, and patriotism blurred.
The story of Joan de Geneville is a testament to the strength and resilience of the Forgotten Women of History. Her journey reflects the challenges faced by women in a time when their voices were often silenced or overshadowed. Yet, through her determination and unwavering spirit, Joan emerged as a true force to be reckoned with, leaving an indelible mark on the course of English history.
This narrative, the first in the Forgotten Women of History Series, invites readers to explore the untold stories of remarkable women whose contributions have long been overlooked. It is a captivating exploration of the power of love, the consequences of ambition, and the courage required to navigate the turbulent tides of a nation in flux.
