Review: the leads are great!

I havent read a lengthy gay romance in a while so maybe that's why it bother me that Gaidres held on to his grudge for far too long and of course the big climax near the end is what it takes to make him realize his love for Caelius but I must say the way it was handle was well written. Aside from that minor complain, I did enjoy the leads. I got attached to them both and I liked that even though Caelius was the Master and Gaidres was the slave, in the bedroom it was the other way around and it was hot!! Though I would have liked to see the roles reverse at least once. Nonetheless I liked their journey and I especially liked Caelius's patience and attitude. I, dont know know much about roman history, my forte is more in the 1800's area but I was kind of shock to see how open h/h were about their relationship, Id think itd b taboo to let it be known you have a same sex lover, even if the staff is loyal. However, it's definitely a book I'd read again.
