The daughter of a powerful desert chieftain, beautiful raven-haired Zenobia, a descendent of Cleopatra, witnesses at an early age the shocking brutality of renegade Roman soldiers and vows to hate all of the blue-eyed strangers forever. Despite that pledge, she falls hopelessly and passionately in love with Marcus Alexander Britanus, a Roman. And it will take all her cunning and skill in war to keep the precious erotic rapture she can find only in his arms....

Contains mature themes.

It was a nice book. To see how someone’s life can change so drastically was eye opening. To see how ancient cultures were in history was different from cultures of today.

Piece of history

The lush settings, the melt-you-to-the-core passion, the wonderful fleshed-out characters, and the historical events in the background kept me engaged and up all night to finish.


🎙️ Narration was good. I recommend listening to ALL of her books at 1.7+ speed!

My Favorites

1. The O’Malley saga | The ultimate family saga of female powerhouses and the men they bring to their knees.
2. World of Hetar series | The “Throne of Glass” of bodice rippers!
3. Beloved | A historical feast.
4. A Moment in Time | A breathtaking love that is an echo in time. Emotional and unputdownable.
5. The Love Slave | A sensual historical hot-for-teacher romance.

The performance was ehh. and the story lane made me feel as if it was dragging. 4hrs in and there was finally a little action. To me it was just too wordy and I found that the lead was too annoying. Overall not great.

Simply can't get into it.
