Blurb:
Ancient Rome is a dangerous place, in more ways than one.
Captured by slavers, distraught but determined Sabina is thrust into the world of gladiators. Disguised as a man, she struggles to remain undetected whilst navigating through her new life.
But love forces its way into her focus again and when a haunting figure from her past remerges, the couple’s fate is to be decided in the Heart of the Arena.
Excerpt:
“He is not my gladiator,” she managed to reply, once she had regained herself from staring too deeply into his entrancing gaze.
“Then there is still hope that I might become yours.” He did say all the right things, every word making Sabina want to pull the man inside and worry about the consequences later. Yet, not thinking of the results of her actions was just the thing that kept getting her into trouble.
She cleared her throat. “There are many women who would wish it so.”
“Not you?” he asked, his tone no longer playful but serious.
“You do not know me well enough to make such statements,” Sabina replied, trying not to let herself be drawn further into this dangerous game.
“And what if I would wish to?”
“Do you always answer with more questions?”
“Do you not like it?” He grinned as he teased her and she rolled her eyes at him, but could not help the smile that lit her face.

I love your cover art. Who does them?
Glad you like them! 🙂 I did them myself, partly because I have no money, but also partly because I wanted very specific things and something really unique and connected to the story 😀
Thank you for reading and commenting 🙂
Of course!
I’m not very artistic and I’m having a very hard time with my covers. I’m working on it though.
It can be a bit hit and miss at times, and the cover I had in mind just won’t work for me, so I have to completely do-over and go fro something that is achievable and professional rather than just looking like I slapped a pic on the front! 😀
Good luck with it 🙂
It’s on my reading list 🙂 Can’t wait to get to it.
I hope you enjoy it! 😀 It was definitely fun to write something historical and different.
Thank you for reading and commenting 🙂
Oh, I love stories about ancient Rome. There’s a dearth of them these days, so good job picking that setting. Fab cover too. I also love the Queen’s Jester cover. You did a great job. I’ve added them to my TBR. http://flossiebentonrogers.com
I hope you enjoy them if you get to read them 😀 I did love the setting of Ancient Rome, though not sure I’d attempt it again!
