Wife After Wife by Olivia Hayfield

Henry VIII in all his glory is played out in this modern retelling. Harry is good looking, charming and very rich so he has his pick of all the beautiful women in London. He is already married to one of them but sadly just can't seem to stop himself from sampling the other delights, young and old. While we follow Harry's escapades the watch the women line up and then fall we can't help but see the parallels to the former King of all England. And, like that overactive monarch before him, we wonder if he will ever be content and learn true happiness before it is too late. His children are the ones who really need him and are most affected by his childish revolving door of wives but when you don't care about the king, you don't care what happens to his kingdom. The author proves once again that there is no excuse for male bad behavior no matter the time or place.
