When your destiny has been stolen, it's up to you to make a new one. But first you have to survive the marriage you've been forced into.
Having been warned by her guard, Macrinus, that her life depends on being faithful to her new husband, Sofia Domna enters the grand city-state of Vancuse to begin her arranged marriage to Sirius Verus. But when she discovers her former lover serves in her new household, Sofia's resolve is tested at every turn.
When she becomes pregnant, Sofia's fidelity is immediately questioned even as Sirius's secrets unravel. Secrets that will turn Sofia's world on its head.
With a backdrop of political and marital instability, and Sirius's once-great status quickly on the decline, can Sofia withstand threats, shame, and temptation to guide her husband to the highest role in the realm?
Set in the Greco-Roman world introduced in the Osteria Chronicles, Domna is a six-part serialized novel that tells the story of Sofia Domna, a woman whose destiny abruptly changes when she reprimands the wrong man.
As Sofia's life moves through the trials of a forced marriage, motherhood, and yearning temptation, she learns that destiny isn't given; it's made by cunning, endurance, and, at times, bloodshed.
