New York, present day, alternate timeline. Karen Brown, angry and frightened after surviving a kidnap attempt, has a harsh choice - being eliminated by government enforcer Jeffery Renschman or fleeing to mysterious Roma Nova, her dead mother's homeland in Europe.

Founded sixteen centuries ago by Roman exiles and ruled by women, Roma Nova gives Karen safety, at a price, and a ready-made family in a strange culture she often struggles with. Just as she's finding her feet, a shocking discovery about her new lover, special forces officer Conrad Tellus, isolates her.

And the enforcer, Renschman, is stalking her in her new home and nearly kills her. Recovering, she is desperate to find out why this Renschman is hunting her so viciously. Unable to rely on anybody else, she undergoes intensive training, develops fighting skills and becomes an undercover cop. But crazy with bitterness at his past failures, Renschman sets a trap for her, knowing she has no choice but to spring it...

The Centurion's Woman by FliederAmanda
107 parts Complete Mature
Alexandria "Alex" Moldovan fell asleep at a work retreat and woke up in the same place, just not in the right time. The situation improves when she's inadvertently rescued by a Roman Centurion, and as long as she can keep her wits - and his affections - she might just survive this. But trading one slave class for another doesn't help with the trouble that always seems to find her... Ixillius Traversi had been leading his century on a routine razing, but the slave he found imprisoned, injured and starved in the village is anything but typical. That she was alive seemed barely possible, and then she'd saved his life... and she wasn't afraid of him. He claimed the woman who called herself Alex as his slave, be it a curse or a blessing, but he still needs to know one thing: who is she? The Centurion's Woman is set in Germania Inferior circa 5 AD, and Maiden discovers that a two thousand year culture shock may be the easiest problem to overcome, but it won't be the last... Trigger Warnings: beatings / abuse (people and animals), starvation, battle, blood, sex Please note: This story's historical elements are based on the research I did as a writer; I'm not a historian.

Her hardened brothers vow to shield her from the dangerous world they live in, and her once-untouchable father softens, determined to make up for lost time.

AVENA'S SECRET

4 parts Ongoing Mature

Born into the treacherous world of the Italian Mafia, where power was a realm exclusively reserved for men, life for women was a delicate balancing act. Avena's mother had drilled into her the importance of toeing the line, never crossing the men who ruled their lives. But Avena refused to be a pawn in their game. Behind her facade as an intelligent, reserved, and seemingly innocent teenager lay a fearsome, lethal assassin who thrived on the thrill of taking lives. She was not one to be protected; she killed not out of necessity, but out of a passion for it. She would go to any length, even using violence, to assert control over her destiny. Avena's life as an assassin was governed by four unbreakable rules: 1. Execute the target, leaving no witnesses. 2. Guard her secrets with unwavering resolve. 3. Protect only those who truly mattered to her. 4. Never violate any of the first three rules. Step into the shadowy world of Avena as she navigates high-stakes hit jobs, hidden identities, firearms, narcotics, a trail of corpses, deceit, hatred, treachery, adrenaline-pumping encounters, dark and dangerous obsessions, a tangled love triangle, carnal desires, and the perilous allure of a toxic love affair. Each step she takes is a dance on the razor's edge, teetering between survival and self-destruction.
