The Divided Heart takes place in 1810, the Regency period in England. It's the story of Lady Anne Wadsworth, daughter of the English Earl of Kendall, born and brought up on her family's estate in Ireland, a place of rolling open country and a thousand shades of green. Her duty may belong to England, but her heart belongs to Ireland, especially after Diarmaid, a red-headed enigmatic Irishman, enlightens her about the plight of his people under British rule. Anne is more than sympathetic to Diarmaid's cause, but at the same time she's drawn to Hugh, the Marquess of Ashbourne, the new English owner of an Irish estate. Hugh falls in love with Anne, but is appalled that she intends to turn her sympathy for the Irish into action. When he proposes marriage, Anne knows that accepting his offer will keep her in Ireland, but feels honor-bound to help Diarmaid, even if it means losing Hugh.
