In a Tudor England infused with deadly magic, a very different history will unfold for the wives of Henry VIII. Perfect for fans of The Priory of the Orange Tree, Six Wild Crowns is an epic fantasy filled with legendary dragons, vicious courtly intrigue, and sapphic yearning.
As tradition has it, the king of Elben must marry six queens and magically bind each of them to one of the island's palaces or the kingdom will fall.
Clever, ambitious Boleyn is determined to be her beloved Henry's favorite queen. She relishes the games at court and the political rivalries with his other wives. Seymour is the opposite – originally sent to Boleyn's court as a reluctant spy and assassin, she ends up catching Henry's eye and is forced into a loveless marriage with the king.
But when the two queens become the unlikeliest of things – friends and allies – the balance of power begins to shift. Together, they uncover a dark and deadly truth at the heart of the island's magic. Boleyn and Seymour's only hope of survival rests on uniting all six of the rival queens – but Henry will never let that happen.

"A thoroughly delectable fantasy that celebrates sisterhood and courageous truth while exposing the active maliciousness of patriarchy. The Tudor period is reconstructed into a deftly woven fantasy fraught with all the court politics, betrayals and closely guarded secrets of the era. The wives of Henry VII are resplendent, shrewdly navigating a world intent on controlling them and ready to destroy it all in defense of the ties that bind them. This is an intricate, powerful and utterly spectacular book. No one is ready for it."Bea Fitzgerald, author of Girl, Goddess, Queen
