Rome, 40 AD
Julia, a virtuous young Roman noblewoman, is forced to attend Emperor Caligula's new brothel on the Palatine Hill. She's horrified at the thought of servicing the patrons, but has little choice if she wishes to protect her mother and sisters, and move forward with her secret agenda. Marcus, a prominent senator, goes to the brothel on opening night to see for himself if Caligula really has carried out his appalling plan. Marcus is stunned to see Julia, the woman he loved but lost five years ago, standing in the middle of the mayhem. Marcus is determined to save Julia from her dire situation, but his decision sets off a series of events that place them both in the greatest danger. Julia can't resist her budding intimacy with Marcus. She loved him once. Her passion for him now lays all her secrets bare, with shocking consequences. Marcus's desire to protect her becomes a powerful passion that threatens to tear both their worlds apart. He vows to make Julia HIS, no matter what the cost, no matter who tries to stand in his way. Marcus's passion leaves Julia almost mindless with need, forcing her to choose: Continue with the bargain from Hades she's made, or surrender to Marcus's love before it's too late. Sensuality Rating

A Note from the Author
One of the best things about writing this book and series as a whole was just how similar our own modern world actually is to the ancient Roman one in many respects. Falling in love is universal, no matter the time, place, and culture. Almost all of our Western traditions related to marriage actually come from Ancient Rome! So escape from streaming and social media, to the sensuality of Roman baths, luxurious foods and fabrics, and the vivid connection between two lovers who never have to text each other.... Fun Fact
The Palatine Hill was the richest and most exclusive area to live in Ancient Rome. It's where we get the word 'palace' from.
