Book Description
"The Unwilling Vestal" is a historical romance novel that brings us back to the times of the Roman Empire, in the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. It tells the story of a young girl from a noble family who refuses the proposed marriage of a rich Roman and chooses to be a Vestal virgin for 30 years instead. Brinnaria, the main character, hates her role, but she is in love with the young nobleman Caius Almo, whom she dreams of marrying after her 30-year service as a Vestal Virgin. Meanwhile, the girl gets into the turbulence of political intrigues, brings mighty friends and enemies, has to save the life of her lover, who became a gladiator, and finds her way into the cruel world of Roman politics.

Book Description
That day he was returning from an inspection amid a large and gorgeous retinue, Brinnaria had a blurred vision of splendid uniforms and dazzling accoutrements. Her vision was blurred because her eyes were filled with tears; she turned hot and cold and almost fainted with emotion, when the Emperor's twenty-four victors lovered their faces, the whole procession halted, the escort and the Emperor himself swerved their horses aside to let her pass and remained at the salute until she had passed. The sudden realization of the importance of her official position overwhelmed her.
