Set in the grandeur and danger of ancient Rome, The Laurel Crown of Love is a sweeping tale of forbidden romance, power, and sacrifice.
Lucius Valerius Aurelian, a celebrated Roman commander destined for glory, has devoted his life to Rome—its wars, its honor, its unyielding demands. Aurelia Cassia, intelligent and unafraid, arrives at the imperial court under the guise of a guest, hiding wounds left by the Empire she serves unwillingly. When fate binds them together within the marble walls of power, duty collides with desire.
As political conspiracies tighten, loyalties are tested, and the weight of the laurel crown grows heavier, Lucius and Aurelia must choose between the empire that shaped them and a love that could destroy them both.
In a world where Rome always comes first, this is a story about what it costs to place love above the throne.
