Summary
You never used to be this desperate. Never used to allow yourself to grovel at a man’s feet for him just to give you the smallest morsels of warmth in return. Yet, you found yourself lapping up each and every crumb.
It was never supposed to even be him. It was Tommy that set his eyes on you on that godforsaken night at the bar—the night that turned to utter carnage.
Yet now, you would do just about anything to have his brother look at you with the same warmth and wanting.
You wanted to hate Joel Miller, wanted to feel nothing but disgust as you looked at him but you never could… and so in turn, you allowed him to ruin you over and over in every sense of the word.

Summary
Her father's wishes were clear, and his vision was one much more realistic than the one of Marcus Aurelius. In an empire of lies such as Rome, only the strongest survive.
And her father intends for them not only to survive, but to rule it. And once he obtains their tool to climb up the ladder, Clelia must play her part aswell.
Sneaking into the lifes of the members of the Senate, the Emperors and the beloved daughter of Marcus Aurelious, Lucilla, is no easy task, much less when she has to make her father's latest champion beloved by all.
And it seems that Hanno, or so he claims to be his name, has decided to make his life's mission to be a perpetual obstacle in Clelia's own ambitions, and make her job especially difficult by challenging and questioning everything she believes, digging out her own lies and secrets.Bookmarked by iris_blues

"Old man's dream?"
"That's what it is," he said, his voice dropping lower. He stared at his bloodied hands and chuckled. "A dream, nothing more."

Summary
"So you like giving meaningless hope to children." I turned to see a sloping Roman nose, curly hair with a scruffy beard to match. But those eyes...
...I know those eyes.
"I tell that story because it gives me hope, however much it hurts." The words tumbled out of my mouth, and I tried not to stutter. It cannot be him. “Good day, gladiator. I wish you fortune in the arena.”
"My lady." His voice, reminiscent of another, rumbled through the air as I hurried away, the ghosts of the past haunting me all the while.
It cannot be him.
Lucius Verus Aurelius was dead.When a ghost from the past is dragged back to Rome at her father's hand, Aelia never expected everything to change. But in the shadows of the Colosseum, schemes flourish, planning to tear down the family she has built with painstaking hands.
And she won't let anyone jeopardized that.
Not even her old friend, Lucius Verus.

Summary
You are the daughter of Rome's most esteemed Centurion, the General of the largest Roman Legion. Upon return from the siege of a Persian city, your father has a new right-hand-man: Marcus Acacius.
To secure strength through power instead of politics, your father arranges you to be wed to Acacius. Though you vehemently hate the conquests of Rome, the soldier is not everything he seems.
You had no idea how much danger this marriage put you in, and how close one plot to overthrow Rome's strength would bring you to unlikely connections.
