Prompt: The Gladiator -
He won his fame--and his freedom--in the gory pits of Rome's Coliseum. Yet the greatest challenge for once-legendary gladiator Caros Viriathos comes to him through a slave. "His" slave, the beautiful and mysterious Pelonia Valeria. Her secret brings danger to his household but offers Caros a love like he's never known....Should anyone learn she is a Christian, Pelonia will be executed. Her faith threatens not only herself, but her master. Can she convince a man who found fame through unforgiving brutality to show mercy? And when she's ultimately given the choice, will Pelonia choose freedom or the love of a gladiator?
Summary:Jen has been given his freedom and lives a more peaceful life in the city. He is given the chance to save someone from certain death in the beast pits and he chooses Jarrod. Jarrod is a follower of the Christ and brings danger to Jen's home but the two men become close and, when Jarrod's life is endangered, they realise that what they feel for each other is more than friendship. When the chance finally comes will Jarrod choose Jen over freedom and faith or will the two men be torn ansunder by their differences.
