Marina has spent her entire life knowing that her power to heal would someday be required to save the world. When England is invaded by William the Conqueror, and her entire life changes, the other threat is still there and waiting for her. As her sisters find love amidst their own private battle with evil, Marina knows love that overwhelms her for the brother of her eldest sister, but he’s made it clear that he will not marry her.

Charles wants nothing more than to get his life in order and receive some of the land his liege, King William, is handing out to his followers. Having his own land means the freedom to marry the lady he loves. Pretty Marina is the only woman he can think about, but he won’t feel truly worthy of her until he can provide a home for her.

Will Charles realize that leaving will make him lose the love of a good woman? Or are the two of them destined to live their lives apart?
