When Isabella gives him a list of impossible demands for a potential suitor, Ewin knows that he needs to beat her at her own game. As he attempts to distinguish himself as the perfect suitor, nefarious forces work against him, determined to see him fail. Will he be able to convince Isabella that her love is greater than her fears, or is he destined to lose her forever?
