It's AD 37. In this story of secrecy and betrayal, Caligula Caesar has just become Rome's new master. Senator Titus Carinna, who helped him succeed to the throne, knows the inexperienced young ruler needs a companion he can trust. It's a shame the Senator's older son - Caligula's closest friend - committed suicide after being charged with treason. But that still leaves Marcus, his second son. Headstrong and hot-tempered, Marcus would rather prove his courage by leading legions against Rome's enemies.

It is a world of power and privilege, secrets and sacred duty. It is the world of ancient Rome. And it is the esteemed Vestal Virgins - priestesses of Vesta, goddess of the home and hearth - who protect the Eternal Flame that protects the Eternal City. Dedicated to a 30-year vow of chaste service, Priestess Pomponia finds herself swept up in the intrigue, violence, wars, and bedroom politics of Rome’s elite - Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra, Octavian and his maneuvering wife, Livia - all the while guarding the secret affection she has in her heart.

At the mercy of the scheming Imperial Chamberlain, Cleander, Rufinus is dispatched to Dacia, a land of untamed beauty at the edge of the Roman world, with orders to investigate the two legionary commanders there for signs of treason. Uncertain what to expect from his mission, the two generals, or the land itself, Rufinus travels east with Senova and his faithful hound, Acheron. But machinations and skullduggery are afoot in Dacia, and the young praetorian is walking into the heart of empire-changing events.

Publisher's Summary
Treachery amid the dark menace and magic of the German wilderness.
Spring, 38 AD. Far from the intrigues of Caligula's Rome, the legion fortress of Carnuntum stands alone against the forested wilderness across the Danube River.
Ex-Army tribune Marcus Carinna waits nearby for his beloved, the Germanic priestess Aurima. Stunned by treason in his family, he sees one hope of earning back his honor: to recover a lost legion's sacred Eagle captured by rebels. He needs Aurima's help to succeed - but after promising months ago to win the support of her chieftain father, a brutal enemy of Rome, she still hasn't returned.
When an imperial spymaster recruits him for a secret mission among the hostile German tribes, Marcus jumps at the excuse to search for her. But as his troops slog along the rutted track of the Amber Road, he will discover that he is not out of reach of his enemies' vengeance - and that saving the woman he loves is going to demand more heart and will than he knew he possessed.
If you enjoy good historical fiction - rich, meaty novels that immerse you in another time, peopled with characters you truly care about - you're the kind of listener likely to love Amber Road, the second installment in the epic saga of Roma Amor.
Get it now to journey into the heart of mystery, love, and courage.

Excitement & Romance in The Dark Forests of Ancient Germania
All the political and romantic threads from "Roma Amor" are woven past the drama of Rome, past the Rubicon, and into the dark forested wilderness of Germania. Lots of action, political intrigue, and romance keep the pace going. Start with book one but add this book (and hopefully book three?) to your library!
