Gladiator, Goddess - Morgan H. Owen

Q: What is your Roman Empire? A: A sapphic, feminist romantasy, set in the age of ancient Rome. The Roman Goddesses have grown weary of the rule of Gods and men. They seek to change the fortune of the world by backing a brilliant young woman. In Pompeii, Gia dreams of being a female Gladiator, but there is no such thing. When she wins the favour of Claudia – the beautiful daughter of the Emperor – her star begins to rise in the arena, but so does the risk to her life. Together, the girls must battle conspiracies to overthrow the Empire, and their growing feelings for one another. Feelings the Goddesses had not planned on.A scintillating and enchanting new series, perfect for fans of Powerless, Lore and Crescent City.
