Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz is a C-list princess from a tiny province who plans on living a lowkey life. But when the King of England asks for her hand, 17-year-old Charlotte finds herself thrust into the spotlight. Lucky for her, she and George III fall madly in love. But their fairy tale marriage is threatened when George falls prey to a mysterious illness. Shy Charlotte suddenly finds herself having to step up to the big leagues and play a political game – all to protect the love of her life.
