Against the colorful backdrop of 17th-century England comes the romantic story of Charles Stuart's return to the throne. For years an exiled prince, he wandered throughout Europe, a man without a country. Then one day England thrust aside her Puritan rule and called him back to become her king -- Charles II.

Here is his story of passion and struggle seen through the eyes of the two women who loved him. Barbara Palmer--vulgar, ambitious, promiscuous, and sensual--she was the king's mistress who would not give him up, even to his wife.

And Catherine of Braganza, the woman Charles was forced to wed. A shy and unworldly woman whose love for her husband was indestructible.
