In Thrall To The Enemy Commander
Greta Gilbert

Cleopatra’s slave girl…And an enemy Roman soldier…Egyptian slave Wen-Nefer is wary of all men. But she can’t help but be captivated by handsome Titus, advisor to Julius Caesar—even though he is commanding, and intolerant of bold women like her. Their affair is as all-consuming as it is forbidden. But is he a man who will go to any lengths to love her despite their boundaries…or a sworn enemy she must never trust?

Cleopatra’s slave girl

and an enemy Roman soldier...

Egyptian slave Wen-Nefer is wary of all men. But she can’t help but be captivated by handsome Titus, adviser to Julius Caesar, even though he is commanding and intolerant of bold women like her. Their affair is as all-consuming as it is forbidden. But is he a man who will go to any lengths to love her despite their boundaries...or a sworn enemy she must never trust?

“Gilbert’s passion for ancient history imbues her tales with authenticity [and] immerses readers in a long-lost culture.”

—RT Book Reviews on The Spaniard’s Innocent Maiden

“Gilbert’s desert romance is a tale to prize... Definitely a must.”

—RT Book Reviews on Enslaved by the Desert Trader

GRETA GILBERT’s passion for ancient history began with a teenage crush on Indiana Jones. As an adult she landed a dream job at National Geographic Learning, where her colleagues—former archaeologists—helped her learn to keep her facts straight. Now she lives in South Baja, Mexico, where she continues to study the ancients. She is especially intrigued by ancient mysteries, and always keeps a little Indiana Jones inside her heart.
