A woman with a devastating secret. A man bent on proving his worth. A chance encounter that catapults them into the heart of history.
When the daughter of a prominent Roman general meets a disinherited Jewish immigrant, neither one can dream of God’s plan to transform them into the most influential couple of the early church. Nor can they anticipate the mountains that will threaten to bury them. Their courtship unwittingly shadowed by murder and betrayal, Priscilla and Aquila slowly work to build a community of believers, while their lives grow increasingly complicated thanks to a shaggy dog, a mysterious runaway, and a ruthless foe desperate for love. But when they’re banished from their home by a capricious emperor, they must join forces with an unusual rabbi named Paul and fight to turn treachery into redemption.
With impeccable research and vivid detail, Daughter of Rome is both an emotive love story and an immersive journey through first-century Rome and Corinth, reminding readers once again why Debbie Macomber has said that “no one brings the Bible to life like Tessa Afshar.”

Book Title: Daughter of Rome
Book Author: Tessa Afshar
What do you like about this book:
This is a great Christian Fiction book featuring Aquila and Priscilla. There is not a lot mentioned in the Bible concerning these two, but the author does a great job bringing the characters to life while staying true to what is known. I enjoyed it immensely! I would recommend it for anyone who enjoys Christian Fiction. It is a clean read with no foul language or sex scenes. There is some violence however.
