He won his fame– his freedom–in the gory pits of Rome's Colosseum.

Yet the greatest challenge for once-legendary gladiator Caros Viriathos comes to him through a slave. His slave, the beautiful mysterious Pelonia Valeria. Her secret brings danger to his household but offers Caros a love like he's never known. . . .

Should anyone learn she is a Christian, Pelonia will be executed. Her faith threatens not only herself, but her master. Can she convince a man who found fame through unforgiving brutality to show mercy? when she's ultimately given the choice, will Pelonia choose freedom or the love of a gladiator?
