A Lily of France is a historical fiction novel written by Caroline Atwater Mason and published in 1901. The story is set in 16th century France during the reign of King Henry II and revolves around the life of a young girl named Gabrielle de Montserrat. Gabrielle is the daughter of a nobleman and is raised in a convent after her mother's death. She is a beautiful and intelligent girl who catches the eye of King Henry II, who takes her as his mistress. As Gabrielle navigates the treacherous court of King Henry II, she must also contend with the jealousy and hatred of the queen, Catherine de' Medici. Gabrielle's love for the king is tested when she discovers his infidelity and is forced to choose between her loyalty to him and her own moral code. The novel is a vivid depiction of life in 16th century France, with detailed descriptions of court life, fashion, and politics. Mason's writing is rich and descriptive, bringing the characters and setting to life.
