Nel 1761, in una soleggiata giornata di settembre, un re e una principessa si incontrano per la prima volta e si sposano nel giro di poche ore. Tedesca, Carlotta di Meclemburgo-Strelitz è bella, testarda e molto intelligente... non proprio le caratteristiche che la Corte britannica cercava per la sposa del giovane re Giorgio III. Ma il suo ardore e la sua indipendenza sono invece esattamente ciò di cui lui ha bisogno, perché Giorgio ha dei segreti... segreti che possono scuotere le fondamenta stesse della monarchia. Nel suo nuovo ruolo, Carlotta deve imparare a destreggiarsi nell'intricata politica di Corte e, nello stesso tempo, proteggere il suo cuore, perché si sta innamorando del re, anche se lui la respinge. Soprattutto deve imparare a governare e a capire che le è stato dato il potere di cambiare la società. Deve combattere, per se stessa, per suo marito e per tutti i sudditi che guardano a lei per avere guida e protezione. Perché non sarà mai più solo Carlotta. È chiamata a compiere il suo destino... come regina.
