Summary
Anne of Cleves was planning on living a nice, quiet life in her small German province. But when Henry VIII proposes after seeing her portrait, her whole world gets turned upside down. Things become extra complicated when Anne and Henry finally meet in person. Henry decides he’s not attracted to her – and tells anyone who will listen that she catfished him. Anne will have to find a way to stay out of the line of fire – or risk Henry trying to get rid of her by any means necessary.
