In 1928, when American Wallis Simpson arrived in London, she had no money, no connections, and an emotionally distant husband, Ernest. A chance meeting between Wallis and the Prince of Wales changes everything: they fall in love. When King George V dies suddenly, the Prince of Wales becomes King Edward VIII. But in a twist that caused a worldwide scandal, Edward chose to give up his throne in order to be with Wallis. Bestselling author Wendy Holden takes an intimate look at the human story behind the scandal.
