The Queen and the Julian Star
In 48 BCE Alexandria, a queen smuggled into her own palace inside a rolled carpet of linen finds the one man as skilled at performance and survival as she is: Julius Caesar, dictator-in-waiting, exhausted by civil war and haunted by Pompey's murder on Egyptian sand. Cleopatra VII will not be a prize handed to her by Rome, and Caesar cannot afford to be ruled by desire, yet siege, fire, and betrayal draw them into a bond neither can safely name. Amid the Pharos lighthouse's burning harbor, the Library's fragile stacks, and a court seething with rival claims, two rulers who understand that survival is a performance must decide how much of themselves they are willing to risk for each other, and for a throne that Cleopatra insists was never Caesar's to give. A richly researched, low-heat historical romance of political daring, dangerous intimacy, and a crown claimed on the queen's own terms. By Aurelia Vance. Listed listening length: 72 minutes. Category: Historical Romance. Story dynamics: Forbidden / Taboo Love, Morally Gray Love Interest, Forced Proximity.
