Spanning 102-114/115 AD, Empress of the Seven Hills picks up a few years after the events of Mistress of Rome and follows the story of Thea and Arius' son, Vix. When Trajan falls, the hardened soldier, the enigmatic empress, the adventurous girl, and the scheming politician will all be caught in a deadly whirlwind of desire and death that may seal their fates, and that of the entire Roman Empire. And the aristocratic Hadrian-the Empress's ruthless protégé and Vix's mortal enemy-has ambitions he confesses to no one, ambitions rooted in a secret prophecy.
Trajan's ambitious Empress has her own plans for Sabina. But others are already maneuvering in the shadows. Sometimes lovers, sometimes enemies, Vix and Sabina are united by their devotion to Trajan. The sinuous, elusive Sabina is a senator's daughter who craves adventure. But neither Trajan nor his reign can last forever.īrash and headstrong, Vix is a celebrated ex-gladiator returned to Rome to make his fortune. Powerful, prosperous, and expanding ever farther into the untamed world, the Roman Empire has reached its zenith under the rule of the beloved Emperor Trajan. From the national bestselling author of Daughters of Rome and Mistress of Rome comes a tale of love, power, and intrigue spanning the wilds of the Empire to the seven hills of Rome.
