In 1641 the village of Grafton in Oxfordshire is celebrating the betrothal of the Earl's daughter, Anne, to Simon Greville.

Four years later Anne Grafton and Simon Greville are on opposing sides in a violent civil war and Simon has come to Grafton Manor as conqueror. When Anne refuses to yield her manor and her allegiance to him he swears to hold her prisoner until she submits to his will. Can Anne resist when Simon can undermine her resolve with a single touch? And can the desire that flares between them ever grow in to love when they hold opposing loyalties and each swears to fight to the death for what they believe in?
