REIGN

"Since Mary, Queen of Scotland, was a child the English have wanted her country and her crown. She is sent to France to wed its next king, to save herself and her people - a bond that should protect her, but there are forces that conspire, forces of darkness, forces of the heart. Long may she reign."

Love is the most dangerous subject

That my readers, is the opening narration of my new favorite series, REIGN :)

Reign tells the life story of Mary, Queen of Scotts. Its part history part fictitious. I actually went and read up on her and everything she has been through. One tough cookie I tell you. What history taught me though is, *spoiler alert* that things doesn't end well for Mary. Alas, this still makes for a brilliant series.

Mary is played by Australian born actress Adelaide Kane. I love this chick. Everything she does is with great poise. I don't think they could've chosen a better Mary.

The series follows her love interest for both Francis (Future King of France) and his bastard brother (King Henry II son with his mistress), her struggles with Queen Catherine de Medici and of course all the politics surrounding the French court. Her four handmaidends, Kenna, Lola, Alee and Greer is there to support her and find husbands for themselves. But things go horribly wrong for some of them. 

Aaah the beautiful costumes, the traditions, the scenery and the sex haha. This series is Downton Abbey meets Twilight. What more can a gushing girl ask for heehee. Not to mention the awesome music. Old English with modern tunes. :)

Nonetheless, I think this series is awesome, and can't wait to see how they unravel everything towards the end!
