In this story, the couple struggle against great odds for their love for each other but also for the continuation of a family line that is threatened with the real possibility of extinction. The driving force comes from the love, strength, wisdom, and spirituality of the matriarch. She supplies the strategy and determination that is needed to save the bloodline and the vast holdings of the Covington Family.
