✦ Synopsis

Lynette, the daughter of a Saxon nobleman, was weeks from marrying her childhood sweetheart, heir to a Saxon earldom when she finds out she is to be gifted to a newly minted Norman baron by their new conqueror King William. She becomes the unwilling bride to one of William’s most ruthless henchmen, Lord Robert Malet, known as the Butcher of Rouen, who is 16 years her senior. When she meets him at their wedding ceremony, she recognizes him as the Norman captain who saved her from being defiled by a group of Norman soldiers and softens her heart to him. Against the odds, they wind up falling madly in love and within a year she even provides him with a son and heir. But their happy life is cut short when Saxon unrest in the north of England forces Robert to fight for William again and he breaks his promise to come home to her. The devastated widow once again becomes part of the spoils of war and is told she is being gifted to Lord Edgar Grimm, the Saxon earl who helped William bring an end to the rebellion and the same earl she was engaged to before she married Robert. She is forced to put her grief aside and return to the man who never stopped loving her while trying to protect her son. But once she starts to find happiness again, her past will come to reclaim her and tear her heart in two.
