Conrad Brighton, the only son of the Duke of Northumberland, has returned to London after seven long years on the tail of a traitor in France. The only reason he has returned is because his dear friend James, Earl of Winchester, has to return to England to claim his title and secure a bride. But he is now in the same predicament, what with his mother pressurizing him to take a wife. Connie adores his Ma enough to start the search for a suitable female, albeit very reluctantly. But never in his wildest imagination had he expected to meet her.
Elizabeth North, daughter of Baron Middleton, at twenty five years of age, has no need for a husband. The only man who captured her heart, damaged it beyond repair, and she does not wish to be that vulnerable ever again. She enjoys living with her Aunt Cleopatra, free to do as she pleases while her parents tour the world, sending her the odd-gift once a year. But her real joy is working as a spy for Lady M, or β€˜The Matron’. But when an accident makes her come face to face with the man who has haunted her dreams for the past seven years, will she choose love? Or her freedom? Or can she have both?

A shy child, she prefers her prayers and pearls to the hefty politics her Father and brothers have no choice but to partake in but war will reach into her life quicker than she could ever know.... Across the sea, in England, the Wars of the Roses rages, a bloody battle for the throne between the royal Houses of York and Lancaster where a word weighs as much as the swing of a sword. Amidst it all, stands Edward of York, the handsome eldest son to the Duke of York, a young knight, eager to fight but forced to flee England in 1459 when the Lancastrian King and Queen overpower his family forces at Ludlow Castle. With his Neville cousins (one being the infamous Earl of Warwick) Edward sails to France where Warwick begins his plots to regain the House of York power. It is as a result of these plots, Edward and Constance are destined to meet. Worlds apart, they will be matched for the benefit of others but when tragedy strikes at the very heart of the House of York, forcing Edward closer to the throne than ever, they find they are, perhaps, what each other needs. Amongst the tangled nest of vipers, surrounded by bloodied thorns, will they keep the crowns destiny calls for them to claim?

The stipulations of Venetia's new education is something she hadn't bargained for, and when she tries to plan an escape, the malevolent lord sends her off to the city to fulfill her side of the forced arrangement. It is there that Venetia meets Shah Kareem, a visiting foreign king, who is forbidden to her.
