Product Description
Product Description
An erotic historical novel set in Ancient Rome. Catrina, an orphan adopted by the pagan Celts, has grown into a beautiful young woman. Luad, the lecherous Druid Leader, is training her in the way of the priesthood, but Catrina is not happy. When the tribe captures a handsome Roman legionary called Alexius - with every intention of killing him - she finds herself strongly drawn to his masculine charms and vows to leave the uncivilised clan. But she is shocked when Alexius escapes, taking her scared silver amulet with him. Pursuing him to the Roman city of Eboracum, Catrina realises that decadence is rife, with slaves and gladiators. Carried away by the wild sensuality of the Romans' exotic lifestyle, she discovers the true nature of her desires, and those of Alexius.

Beautiful, sensual erotica!,
This review is from: The Amulet (Mass Market Paperback)
Black Lace redeems itself with this offering after the disappointment of various novels I had previously read. The aforementioned imprint should release historical or fanciful erotic novels more often, for I enjoy them far more than their contemporary counterparts. And this smoldering, sensual novel of Romans and Britons enthralled me from beginning to end.Catrina was adopted by the pagan Celts after a dangerous flood killed her family. Blessed with the ability to foresee danger with the help of a silver amulet, she becomes the priestess of the charlatan, sadistic leader of the tribe. When the tribe captures the beautiful Roman commander named Alexius, Catrina does whatever is possible to help the handsome stranger while the tribe prepares for the ceremony that will kill him. But when Alexius betrays her and escapes the tribe, taking her sacred amulet with him, she seeks revenge. However, things take an erotic twist when she arrives in the city of Eboracum, and neither she nor Alexius will ever be the same... The Amulet is full of mouth-watering sex scenes. The scenes with Catrina and Alexius were my favorites, but the rest were just as delicious. I hope Black Lace continues to release novels of this sort. Lisette Allen is a great author and I look forward to reading her other books. I couldn't recommend this little gem enough!

Catrina, a pagan priestess, lustily pursues stolen amulet.,
By gucontroller@kuentos.guam.net - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Amulet (Mass Market Paperback)
Catrina, a beautiful flaxen haired priestess, has lost the amulet that gives her gift of sight clarity. Roman commander Alexius holds more than her treasured necklace in his possession, he's awakened her sensuality as well. Fearing loss of position in her adopted Celtic tribe, Catrina is sent to retrieve the amulet and exact revenge on Alexius. Catrina's lusty pursuit makes for great reading!!!
