I wanted to love this book so much more than I did. I did like it but I didn't love it. There were some problems for me with character and plot development. I felt some of the characters just existed and were not developed. One bad brother one good brother, but no development of why one was bad or one was good. Bad brother is afraid of snakes we find out late in the book. Why? No one knows. Maybe because he saw a snake when he was young but who knows. People are loyal for seeminly little reason and people betray for just as little of a reason. It was a good read I just wanted to know the characters better and not find fault with some story points.

Brilliant love story. Not just of a woman to her beloved, but also to her father, mother, brothers, friend, people of her family's empire.

La princesa Jahanara rememora la extraordinaria historia de amor de sus padres, la hermosa Mumtaz Mahal y el emperador Shah Jahan, quien, tras la muerte de su esposa, para honrar su memoria, ordena la construcción del más hermoso mausoleo: el Taj Mahal. Jahanara no tendrá más remedio que tomar las riendas del gobierno para acabar con las intrigas que se despiertan en el reino ante la debilidad de su padre, quien, consumido por el dolor, no es capaz de atender los asuntos de Estado.
