In the midst of 15th-century Wales, where the Wars of the Roses rage and loyalty is tested, Abigail, a breathtakingly beautiful and intelligent Welsh maiden, finds herself entangled in a web of royal politics and forbidden love.

As a lady's maid at Castell Coch, Abigail's days are filled with servitude and her nights with secret dreams of a better life. But when Prince Francis Seymour, the chivalrous Prince of Wales, arrives at the castle, Abigail's world is turned upside down. Francis, betrothed to the cunning and ruthless Lady Emily, is torn between his duty to his family and the kingdom, and his growing desire for Abigail.

As Abigail navigates the treacherous landscape of court politics, she must confront the harsh realities of her station and the consequences of loving above her social class. With each stolen glance and whispered promise, Abigail and Francis edge closer to a love that could destroy them both.
