Publisher's summary

Rome, AD 270. In the wake of the emperor’s marriage ban, rumors swirl that there is one man brave enough to perform wedding ceremonies in secret. A public notarius and leader of an underground church, Valentine believes the emperor’s edict unjust and risks his own life for the sake of his convictions. But as his fame grows, so do fears for his safety.

Iris, the daughter of a Roman jailor, believes regaining her sight will ease the mounting troubles at home. Her last hope rests in searching out Valentine and his church, but the danger of associating with people labeled a threat to the empire is great. Still, as Iris's new friends lead her to faith in God, Iris is drawn to Valentine, and they both begin to hope for a future together beyond the treacherous empire.

But when a past debt and a staggering betrayal collide, Valentine, Iris, and everyone they love must fight for their lives—and wrestle with trusting a God who can restore sight yet does not always keep His followers from peril.

Stunning Tale

For years there has not been new historical Christian fiction and now Jamie Ogle has done it! She has spun one of the most ingriguing tales with drama and Christian life. Ogle has given us a stunning read! Praise for Of Love and Treason!

Breathtaking

This beautiful story takes you to ancient Rome and you feel like you are actually there.
It's a story full of emotion, longing, and loyalty.
The audio book narrator is one of the best I've heard!

God’s love

The only thing I don’t like is that there isn’t another to follow the people in this story.

I couldn't stop listening

The story was gripping, not as predictable as I'd thought it would be and the story was very interesting.

A Stellar Novel

I haven’t read fiction set in early Rome since Francine Rivers’s Mark of the Lion, because I doubted any could measure up to that series. I was wrong. This book had everything—historical detail, drama, romance, intrigue, and a spiritual message that will stick with me for a long time to come. I’ll look forward to reading more from this author!

A story of courage, faith and perseverance!

Absolutely enjoyed this read! Of Love and Treason was a fascinating, engaging, romance novel with characters that found faith in God during life’s most difficult trials. A true story of courage, perseverance, and continued faith in our Lord Jesus no matter how difficult the circumstance. Highly recommend this wonderfully written book!

A must-read of deep importance

This was my first title by Jamie Ogle. The audiobook version was excellent, and I plan to purchase the paperback for my favorites shelf. I was deeply moved by the characters and their plight. Never have a read an account that made the Christians of 3rd century Rome more accessible. The story is a beautiful letter of love to all our fallen brothers and sisters and the God we serve. The imagery in this book is expertly aimed at the heart of each reader. With Iris, we experience her blindness, her fear and the growth that not only brings her to the one true God, but keeps her standing in the face of cruelty and loss. With Valentine: I was encouraged to be unwavering in faith with his example of finding peace and courage that only God can provide. This book is important, and I will shout it from the rooftops. Read it!
