Julia Augusta, sister and daughter of Roman emperors and Queen of the Goths, finds herself at the center of a powerful rebellion. She has pledged her heart to her husband, Alaric, King of the Goths—the darkly magnificent warlord, and the only man strong enough to challenge Rome at her side. But as Alaric’s army rolls over northern Italy, she finds herself torn between two worlds. Alaric has spent most of his life in the relentless pursuit of vengeance. He has given everything for the protection and advancement of his people—until the daughter of his greatest enemy captured his heart.

And now Alaric of the Visigoths, a ferocious warrior who has battled Rome for years, has come to the capital to bargain for his homeland.
