About this ebook
Lucius Mettelus Carbo, once a legate on the rise in the Roman army, rescues a beautiful young prostitute, Varick, who immediately stirs him. However, Lucius doesn't believe anyone could want him, a man cursed by the gods with an ugly, twisted leg. He resists his attraction to the pleasure slave as they forge a tempestuous relationship, and Varick tries to convince Lucius that he desires his master despite the injury. Both men are fighting their fears as they strive toward a future together... a future in the shadow of the volcano Mount Vesuvius.
A Timeless Dreams title: While reaction to same-sex relationships throughout time and across cultures has not always been positive, these stories celebrate M/M love in a manner that may address, minimize, or ignore historical stigma.
About the author
Jan Irving has worked in all kinds of creative fields, from painting silk to making porcelain ceramics to interior design, but her award-winning writing is always her touchstone. She feels you can't fully understand characters until you follow their journey through a story world. Many kinds of worlds interest her—fantasy, historical, science fiction, and suspense—but all have one thing in common: people finding a way to live together and accept themselves—in the most emotional and satisfying fashion possible, of course!
