The Legionary Seduction - Paperback

by Jenna Bigelow (Author)

Ten years of longing. A second chance at love. One shot to catch a murderer.

Max joined the Roman army in search of glory and adventure, but thanks to his dislike of punctuality and penchant for foul language, he's stuck in the provinces, unable to land even one promotion. When his latest punishment lands him on guard duty at the governor's residence, the last thing he expects is to come face-to-face with the girl he loved ten years ago. Only now, she's married to the governor.

Volusia has long resigned herself to a passionless marriage, as her husband prefers to spend his nights with his private secretary. Seeing Max again throws her orderly world into chaos, and finally she remembers how it feels to be loved, desired, and protected.

When Volusia's husband mysteriously dies, she's convinced he was murdered by the corrupt legionary commander. The only person she dares trust is Max, and she begs him to help prove her husband was murdered. Max knows speaking against his commander will risk his position in the army-not to mention his life-but if Volusia asks, he can't say no. The two become embroiled in a dangerous world of deception and corruption. Their love is strong, but can it withstand a killer's blade?
