England, 1410. Sir Lucien de Russe, once the feared and celebrated knight the men called the Iron Knight, has put away his weapons after serious wounds taken in the king's recent uprisings. He is nearing forty and has buried his wife long ago, leaving a grown son who keeps his distance and a daughter who will not leave his side. Inside, he feels empty, moving through his days without purpose.

The king, meaning well, arranges a marriage between Lucien and a very young heiress. Lucien cannot face the match and rides south alone to clear his head. On the road he comes upon bandits attacking a carriage carrying a widow, Lady Sophina de Gournay, and her small daughter. Lucien steps in to rescue them, and this brief act of gallantry draws the two of them together in ways neither expects. Their chance meeting sets in motion events that could ruin them both, yet it also offers a second chance at love.
