In the battle between Henry VIII and the Roman Church, young tomboy Julian Upton wants to be a priest when she grows up. But the king and Thomas Cromwell, his chief minister, have other plans.
Julian’s family is the benefactor of Hawkswold Priory in Yorkshire. Julian befriends young monk Hugh Warrenham who is destined to be ordained. But their relationship gives Cromwell reason to scrutinize Hawkswold as he systematically dismantles Church framework and influence.
When her father dies, Julian is sent to an abbey on the moors to become a nun. But the abbey is destroyed before she can take her vows. Without resources or a home, her survival depends on her ability to use the skills she taught herself as a child.
When the troops seize Hawkswold, Father Hugh is free to go to France and follow his vocation. But first he must find out if Julian is safe.
Romance, survival, faith, and adventure lead both Julian and Hugh to odd friendships and dangerous undertakings as lines blur in the battle for the England’s devout.
Hawkswold Priory edition by Coralie Hughes Jensen Literature Fiction eBooks
I can't say it is great historical fiction. The author does a good job of bringing out the human side of that period of history--what dissolving the monasteries might have meant to real people. I found that I actually cared about the characters. There were some anachronisms that detracted from the positive aspects of the book. Overall, it was an enjoyable read.Product details

Hawkswold Priory edition by Coralie Hughes Jensen Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I didn't want this book to end! Romance and adventure kept me reading, but I also learned so much about Henry VIII's reign and the destruction of the Catholic Church in England. Julian and Hugh must overcome formidable obstacles to find stability in the chaos. I strongly encourage Ms. Jensen to write a sequel to Hawkswold Priory.
