My Favourite Wife a sizzling tale of sex, romance and second wives. Hot shot young lawyer Bill Holden and his wife Becca move to the booming, gold-rush city of Shanghai.

After Becca witnesses a tragedy that awakens her to the reality of life beyond the glitzy surface of the city, she returns temporarily to London - and Bill and JinJin are thrown together. Bill wants to be a better man than the millionaire who keeps JinJin Li as a second wife on the side. A better man than anyone who cheats. Becca is his best friend.
