A modern retelling of the life and marriages of Henry VIII. Brimming with glamour, intrigue, infidelity and murder, this is The Crown meets Desperate Housewives...

Divorced, murdered, died, divorced, suicide, survived

Wealthy, devilishly handsome businessman Harry Rose is head of Rose Corporation, No.18 on the Forbes rich list and recently married to wife number six. But in 2018, with business in the spotlight and his love life under scrutiny, Harry's perfect world has the potential to come crashing to the ground - and Harry is worried man.

As Harry's conscience battles to justify his past actions - from eighties young gun to naughties ginger tyrant - he begins to realise how the strong, savvy women he's loved and lost have played host to a life story worthy of any tabloid expose. And that behind the money, sex and glamour lies a truer tale of infidelity, intrigue and lies...

If you're a fan of Tudor history with a penchant for smart, sexy commercial women's fiction, Wife After Wife will leave you deliciously entertained.
