The Last Queen of India

Queen Lakshmi is a beauty and a warrior, having grown up with all the opulence of the East at her delicate fingertips. Nineteen-year-old Sita is the shining star of Lakshmi's imperial guard, having pledged her life to the protection of the young ruler. Set in the sensuous world of nineteenth-century India, Empress of India is the story of an unlikely friendship between these two women, as together they face broken hearts, court intrigue and the destruction of a kingdom they'd both give anything to save.
