Salve, friend!
Welcome to the official site of Roma Amor, my historical novel about Caligula's Rome.
Grounded in years of research, Roma Amor blends suspense, political intrigue, and romance in a story about tensions between duty and love, fathers and sons, Romans and barbarians, the dreams of an old republic and the demands of a new empire.
Roma Amor is the first book of a series about first-century Rome that will take you from the beginning of Caligula's reign through his assassination, the accession of his uncle Claudius (of I, Claudius fame), poisonings and conspiracies, and the rise of Nero.
You'll experience this treacherous and turbulent time through the eyes of Marcus Carinna, the headstrong son of a powerful Senator, as he fights to protect the people he loves — and the principles he believes in.
