King Henry V's beautiful widow, Catherine, is determined to marry Owen Tudor, a Welsh gentleman-at-arms. But her life decisions are not her own, overshadowed as she is by more powerful men who are closer to the Throne.

Added to that, her son, the King, is a weak child. She must use all her wits and courage if she is to forge a new life for herself.

It turned out his protection, his possession, and his love all claimed me, fulfilling every dream possible.
