LGBTQ Romance
After an inconvenient display of mercy in the arena, the gladiator Anazรขr is pulled from the sands and contracted to nobleman Lucius Marianus to train his new stable of female gladiators. His charges are demoralized and untested, and they bear the marks of abuse. Anazรขr has a scant two months to prepare them for the arena, and his new master demands perfection. Anazรขr is surprised by how eager he is to achieve itโfar more eager than a man motivated only by self-preservation. Perhaps itโs because Marianus is truly remarkable: handsome, dignified, honorable, and seemingly as attracted to Anazรขr as Anazรขr is to him. But a rivalry between Marianus and his brother sparks a murder conspiracy, with Anazรขr and his gladiatrices caught in the middle. One brother might offer salvation . . . but which? And in a world where life is worth less than the pleasures of the crowd or the whims of a master, can there be any room for love? As a gladiator, Anazรขr's defenses are near impenetrable. But as a man, he learns to his cost that no armor or shield can truly protect his heart.
