Want to help me craft the back cover copy of my new novel Marc Antony’s Best Wife coming out this fall?
I’ve tested it on my writers’ group and a marketing expert. Can you make it even better?
Here it is:
Fulvia, the wife of pleasure-loving Marc Antony, knows that whoever controls Rome controls the fate of the empire. When Julius Caesar is assassinated, Rome is thrown into chaos. To assure her children’s survival, she guides her husband to oppose Octavius, Marc Antony’s rival to rule Rome.
When her husband turns against Fulvia, she uses her wits, wealth, and intelligence to fight Octavius. She must sacrifice her forbidden love to keep her family together. Marc Antony makes a political pact, and Fulvia is forced to give her daughter to Octavius in marriage.
While Marc Antony is overseas having an affair with Cleopatra, Octavius battles Fulvia for control of the army. Fulvia retreats with Marc Antony’s soldiers and becomes trapped in a hill town in Perugia. Starving and forced to submit to Octavius, she must choose between losing her family or her life.
Marc Antony’s Best Wife is the story of a woman who triumphs in the cut-throat world of Ancient Rome.
