A Spartan Love is set in ancient Sparta and features Andreas, a helot, and Theron, a kryptes--natural enemies. It is part of my Apollo's Men series and the first in a three book arc about Andreas and Theron. Their story is continued in A Tested Love, available mid-March.

voice as if she were still alive, calling to him from the safety of their house.

A Spartan Love is available at Dreamspinner Press and Amazon.
