Shonda Rhimes

    Deze auteur, bekend als de maker en uitvoerend producent van diverse baanbrekende televisieshows, onthult in dit aangrijpende en humoristische werk hoe het zeggen van 'ja' haar leven transformeerde. Ondanks haar publieke imago dat staat voor gedurfde en zelfverzekerde personages, worstelde ze privé met introversie en een angst voor publieke optredens. Haar memoires beschrijven een reis van het vermijden van sociale evenementen en mediaverplichtingen naar het omarmen van een jaarlange uitdaging om ja te zeggen tegen alles wat haar bang maakte. Deze transformatie leerde haar nieuwe ervaringen aan te gaan, haar welzijn te prioriteren en haar ware zelf te ontdekken, waarmee ze een niveau van empowerment bereikte dat vergelijkbaar is met dat van haar eigen iconische figuren.

      From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn and television pioneer Shonda Rhimes comes a powerful and romantic novel of Bridgerton's Queen Charlotte and King George. III's great love story and how it sparked a societal shift, inspired by the original series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, created byShondaland for Netflix. In 1761, on a sunny day in September, a King and Queen met for the very first time. They were married within hours. Born a German Princess, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz was beautiful, headstrong, and fiercely intelligent… not precisely the attributes the British Court had been seeking in a spouse for the young King George III. But her fire and independence were exactly what she needed, because George had secrets… secrets with the potential to shake the very foundations of the monarchy. Thrust into her new role as a royal, Charlotte must learn to navigate the intricate politics of the court… all the while guarding her heart, because she is falling in love with the King, even as he pushes her away. Above all she must learn to rule, and to understand that she has been given the power to remake society. She must fight—for herself, for her husband, and for all her new subjects who look to her for guidance and grace. For she will never be just Charlotte again. She must instead fulfill her destiny… as Queen.
