In war torn England the battle lines between Saxon and Norman are clearly drawn. The Saxons must fight for everything they have in the hopes of winning their country back from the Normans who are determined to break their resistance.

Rowena Godwinson, the sole remaining member of the defeated royal
family, stands proudly against the Normans that would trample them underfoot but
her nobility and grace make her an ideal pawn in the Norman King William’s play
for power with the Saxon people. When he decrees she marry a powerful Norman knight,
her subjugation appears to be complete. The handsome soldier with the kind brown
eyes and gentle touch is a threat to her determination to defy the interlopers.
Can she hold firm to her Saxon heritage and refuse to give in to his advances?
John of Normandy wants only to prove himself worthy of the king’s
trust. He is rewarded for his service and loyalty with land, titles and a Saxon
beauty for a bride. John balks at the marriage, driven by the secret guilt of knowing
Rowena’s father would be alive still if not for him. However, John’s reluctance
is soon replaced by a burning desire to please this woman and win her over as well
as her people.
 As their people look to
them for guidance and peace, can John and Rowena find a love that unites all of
England?
