Summary

In part one, Caroline of Brunswick escaped her controlling parents only to wind up in a worse situation – married to Prince George IV of England, a serial cheater who despises her. Luckily, the English people hate the Prince just as much as she does. And that’s gonna come in handy because George is about to become king – and will use his newfound power to try to get rid of Caroline, again. She’ll have to use every trick up her sleeve in order to beat him at his own game.
