After Anne Boleyn’s sharp wit and Henry VIII’s disastrous love life, it is time to roll back a few decades to a king who had no trouble finding romance. Edward IV, the tall, charming Yorkist who won both battles and hearts, was known for his good looks and endless affairs. But what would his Tinder profile say today?
Name: Edward Plantagenet
Age: 40 (though I will forever be remembered as the golden boy of York)
Location: London, but I get around
Occupation: King of England, Yorkist heartthrob, battlefield champion
About Me:
Six foot four, broad shouldered, and not shy about it. Looking for fun, loyalty optional. I am as comfortable on the battlefield as I am in the bedroom. Known to fall in love at first sight, especially with beautiful commoners.
Bonus if you can keep up with my appetite for food, wine, and passion.
Interests:
Winning battles
Women, lots of women
Lavish feasts
Secret marriages
Red Flags:
🚩 Hopeless womanizer
🚩 Secretly married to Elizabeth Woodville
🚩 Known for mistresses and broken promises
🚩 More interested in pleasure than politics
Enjoyed my Tinder profile?
You will find much more of me in the Lochlainn series. I was supposed to marry Alys, the only woman who ever dared to reject me, yet I still hope she will be my mistress one day.
In Fleur de Lys you will see how my charm, my passion, and my ambition shape everything.
Trust me, I am not a man you can forget.

And if you think I am irresistible, just wait until you meet my wife, Elizabeth Woodville - the commoner who became a queen.
