Ermenilda, a Kentish princess, is devastated when her father promises her to the exiled Mercian Prince, Wulfhere of Mercia. All Wulfhere has to do is renounce his pagan ways, convert to Christianity, and take back his territory from the Northumbrians.
Initially, Ermenilda is sure Wulfhere will not succeed--however, her hopes are dashed when, crowned King of Mercia, he returns to her father's hall to claim her.
Trapped in a marriage she does not want, Ermenilda struggles between her unexpected passion for her husband and her hatred for his harsh, warmongering ways. Wulfhere, initially secure in the knowledge that he has claimed the only woman he will ever want, soon begins to realize that possessing a woman and owning her heart are not the same thing.
