England, 1154: lusty, brawling, torn with rebellion, waiting for a savior... Roger of Hereford, just 22, a spirited and breathtakingly handsome baron, returns from France to marshal the rebellious lords against the dubious rule of King Stephen, and to place on the throne... Henry of Anjou, a man of kingly stature who so far has fought a gallant but losing war of succession. Helping - and sometimes hindering Roger, is the great love of his life... Elizabeth of Chester, beautiful, tempestuous, incredibly wayward in an age when most women were little more than chattles. Will the passionate love affair of Roger and Elizabeth save - or doom - their great cause?
