For A Roman's Heart

Haunted by a past she cannot escape and a power she must embrace and lured by a man’s passion she both desires and fears…

Weaver Adrenia Tertia Brigomalla lives a life threatened by the hatred of her ruthless parents and indifferent siblings.  When she meets a Roman soldier with extraordinary caring, his touch ignites an unexpected demand to discover the primal within and fierce independence that she’s withheld so long.  When she awakens to the screams of the dying, her family destroyed and her life dangling in the balance, only the soldier’s mercy prevents her execution. She accepts his protection reluctantly, knowing there is a price to pay emotionally and perhaps physically.

A soldier finds his heart open to the one woman he should not care for…

Centurion Terentius Marius Atellus has marched up the ranks of the army with ambition and a reputation for fairness and firmness. On the trail of a murderous legionnaire, he encounters Adrenia, a young woman who touches his soul in a way no woman has managed before.  Her vulnerability and his need to protect clashes with his duty to track the violent deserter, and he fights against an attraction for Adrenia that could mean his downfall.

They gamble everything for an adventure and love of a lifetime...

Adrenia and Terentius row against a tide, where duty and honor takes precedence over human desires. Though their enemy vows to destroy them and Adrenia’s visions of disaster warn Terentius of inescapable death, they cannot resist a passion more enduring than the Empire itself.
