Love of the Gladiator (Affairs of the Arena) (Volume 2)

Gwenn s life has been marked by fury and rebellion, and she has the scars to prove it. As a slave, each new owner she s had has only made her fight more. But when she is bought by a gladiator training school, she finally finds something to fight for glory in the arena, where everyday people are made immortal.

The gladiators at the school think her presence there is a joke. That includes her trainer, Lucius. This cocky arena veteran has a body molded from marble, and his arrogant persona lights her mind on fire. Every glance from him sends wet heat through her body. Their chemistry is instant, and soon both ache to join each other in a battle that would tear down any bedroom. But Lucius s past places a series of obstacles in their way. None are more terrible than the bloody secret he holds that would destroy any hope he has for Gwenn s affection.

As desperate as she is to be close to him, he only pushes her further away. And when the truth is spilled in a thrilling, violent climax, Gwenn must decide between her unstoppable attraction or her desire for victory.

Gwenn was born a warrior. But it s only in the arena that she will know if she wants the love of a gladiator.
