Sometimes you have to almost die to discover how you want to live.
Itโs AD 114 in the Roman province of Germania Superior, and being a Christian carries a death sentence. Tribune Decimus Lentulus is on the fast track for a stellar political career back in Rome. When heโs robbed, blinded, and left for dead, a young German woman who follows the Way finds him. Valeria knows itโs his duty to have her and her family killed, but she chooses to obey Jesusโs command to love her enemy and takes him home to care for him.
Itโs not his miraculous recovery that shakes Decimus to his core. Itโs the way they love him like family and their unconcealed love for Jesus. In spite of himself, he falls in love with the Christian woman Rome wants him to kill. Can Valeria hide her faith to follow him into the circles of Roman power? Or should he abandon his ambition to help rule the Empire and choose to follow a different way?
Blind Ambitionis the second volume in the Light in the Empire series, which follows the interconnected lives of the members of three Roman families during the reigns of Trajan and Hadrian. The eight novels of the series will take you around the Empire, from Germania and Britannia to Thracia, Dacia, and Judaea and, of course, to Rome itself.
