The Many Versions of Knowledge and Power, Book I

You know it’s love when it hurts...

Rome, 49 BC. Rebellious, orphaned Aurora deals in sensitive information. When she almost succumbs to a mysterious and deadly illness, a stranger offers an antidote that grants Aurora immortality-but ties her to a purpose that will outlast empires.

Now, charged with finding seven hidden Chronicles that will help her save humanity, she must never wield power herself. She exists to advise, to protect. Never to rule.

Infiltrating palaces and politics in search of the Chronicles, Aurora crosses paths with Lucius, a ruthless Spartan warlord turned Roman commander. Their clash of ideals is magnetic enough to span centuries-and dangerous enough to inflame a love that both tortures and satiates their souls.

As their paths irresistibly entwine, Aurora must choose, time and again, between the fate of humanity and a love at odds with her duty.

A dark historical romance where knowledge is power, love is war, and the most dangerous games are played in the mind.
