Lady Karina perishes on a blood-soaked medieval battlefield only to open her eyes in contemporary London. She inhabits the body of a timid socialite trapped in an uninspired one-year marriage pact with Alexander, a wealthy industrialist. Refusing to repeat the original woman's subservient mistakes, the resurrected commander discards all tearful pleadings and begins commanding the grand estate with battlefield discipline.
She quickly disciplines her wayward teenage brother-in-law, defends her vulnerable sister-in-law against industry predators, and dismantles greedy family rivals. Intrigued by her sudden martial prowess, Alexander realizes his sharp-tongued wife bears an eerie resemblance to the ancient warrior queen he obsessively researches. As corporate perils loom, Karina must balance modern high-stakes maneuvers with her warrior pride.
