Isabels half brother King Enrique banished her to live with his wife Queen .Juana and his young daughter also named Juana. King Enrique stays at his court in Madrid. Her brother is in charge of finding someone for her to marry. But the first man he chooses is a king who is twice her age! She refuses to marry him and wishes she could marry someone of her own choice. She does not like her brother and she is to be next in line for the throne but it doesn't seem likely that King Enrique will choose her as his successor. Isabel has many ideas and in the end all works out in a great way. Recommended to 11+ up (I loved this!) Thanks for reading -Ajg16's reviews
