Publisher's Synopsis
The Suitors of Yvonne is a historical romance novel written by the renowned author Rafael Sabatini. Set in 17th century France, the story revolves around the beautiful and wealthy Yvonne de Foix, who is pursued by several suitors vying for her hand in marriage. Among her suitors is the dashing and brave Count de Saintonge, who is determined to win Yvonne's love despite the many obstacles in his path. However, Yvonne is also courted by the wealthy and powerful Marquis de Soyecourt, who sees her as a means to further his political ambitions.As Yvonne struggles to navigate the complex and dangerous world of courtly love and political intrigue, she must also contend with the machinations of her jealous cousin, the Comte de Foix, who seeks to undermine her at every turn.With its vivid descriptions of the opulent court of Louis XIV and its colorful cast of characters, The Suitors of Yvonne is a gripping tale of love, ambition, and betrayal that will captivate readers from beginning to end.Andrea himself showed scant concern, however, and was luckily content with my hurriedly invented explanations; his thoughts had suddenly found occupation in another and a gentler theme than the ill-humour of men, and presently his tongue betrayed them when he drew the conversation to the ladies to whom he had resigned his apartments.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
