I just finished The Woman before Wallis. It’s about Thelma Morgan and her affair with the Prince of Wales before he met Wallis Simpson. It’s fiction, but I believe it portrays everything pretty accurately. Morgan was the twin sister of Gloria Vanderbilt and it is set during the time of the trial to remove little Gloria Vanderbilt from her custody. I found it interesting how everyone very much catered to the Prince of Wales. Morgan gave up a lot to be with him and in my opinion really got nothing from the relationship. She actually introduced him to Wallis.

Wow! Surprised a few didn't like the audible version of this. I gave it 5 stars. I LOVE Tom Hanks reading it. I felt like I was listening to a movie! Same for me - I LOVED it! It was like listening to an old friend and was comforting in a way.
