But the Roman Emperor Octavianuswants Egypt for himself, and when war comes to Egypt at last, Selene faces the loss of all she's ever loved. Forced to build a new life in Octavianus's household in Rome, she finds herself torn between two young men and two possible destinies--until she reaches out to claim her own.
