A Roman commander. An Etruscan princess. Forbidden love in the shadow of empire.

She has always known she was different - shy, thoughtful, and torn between her Plebeian roots and whispers of an ancient secret that her family refuses to speak of. But when an unexpected tragedy thrusts her into the dangerous political world of the Early Roman Republic, she faces truths that will alter the course of her life - and Rome's history - forever.

As secrets unravel and alliances shift, her quiet, sheltered life spirals into a deadly game of power, survival, and suppressed legacies. Confronting a figure whose ambitions and reputation challenge both her principles and Rome's fragile balance of power, she uncovers the truth about her ancestry. In a society rife with betrayal and shifting loyalties, she must decide whether she can claim the covert crown and fulfill a legacy she never knew was hers.

Chronicles of Livius - Book 1: A retelling drawn from the semi-legendary accounts in Livy's Histories, written during the reign of Augustus.
