Gospodarica Rima

Kate Quinn

During the reign of Emperor Trajan, the Roman Empire is at the peak of its power and wealth, and every ambitious inhabitant of the Roman provinces dreams of going to Rome.

And so Vix, the son of a gladiator and a slave, arrives in Rome in his quest for glory. There he falls in love with the senator's adventurous daughter Sabina, with whom he embarks on a passionate love affair. Sometimes lovers, sometimes enemies, Vix and Sabina are inextricably linked in their loyalty to Emperor Trajan. On the other hand, Empress Plotina has her own idea of Sabina's future. Her cunning and ambitious protégé Hadrian becomes Sabina's husband and Vix's mortal enemy... Vix, now a hardened Roman soldier, Sabina and Hadrian fall into a vortex of desire and intrigue after the emperor's death that could seal their destinies, but also the fate of the Empire itself. A touching love story in which the lives of an unusual Roman soldier, a patrician heiress and a future emperor are fatefully intertwined.
