The Rise of Catherine the Great

The more he hated her, the more she loved him...this girl of MANY loves who rose to rule a hundred million souls but could not govern her own heart.

A woman destined to become Catherine the Great enters the Russian royal family by marrying Grand Duke Peter, the nephew of Empress Elizabeth. The couple shares fleeting moments of happiness, but Peter's erratic and cruel behavior creates a growing rift between them. When Peter succeeds his aunt as ruler of Russia, a revolt is already brewing, and Catherine stands ready to claim the throne as the country's new empress.
