In an empire ruled by tyranny, love becomes rebellion-and a sister's heart may burn Rome to the ground.
In an alternate timeline where Maximus survives the Colosseum and Commodus clings to power, the Roman Empire teeters on the edge of collapse. While Lucilla quietly fuels the fires of rebellion, her youngest sister, Lucrezia, lives in the shadow of her family's darkness-hidden from the public eye, protected, and politically unimportant.
But everything changes when she crosses paths with Maximus, the disgraced general turned gladiator, now a symbol of defiance and hope. Drawn to his honour, strength, and sorrow, Lucrezia finds herself caught between two dangerous worlds: the bloodstained throne of her brother Commodus, and the rising rebellion led by the man she's forbidden to love.
As secrets unravel and alliances shift, Lucrezia must choose: loyalty to the empire she was born into-or the love that could destroy it.
Enemies will rise. An emperor will fall. And a forgotten flame will ignite the fate of Rome.
