Travelling with Narses through conquered Lydia, Lykos hides his identity as a prince of Aenus. He intends to take the measure of the encroaching Persian Empire. But before they reach Sardis, he hears cries for help and charges into battle with mountain bandits. Unable to save the beleaguered merchant, he rescues Kas, a young Persian man.
Now his protector is dead, Kas would like nothing better than to remain with the handsome warrior who came to his aid. But how can he explain that to a man who speaks little but Greek?

About the author
Kayla Jameth
15 books93 followersKayla Jameth grew up on the family farm in Ohio. An unrepentant tomboy, she baled hay, raised cattle, and her father taught her to weld before she graduated from high school.
She attended Cleveland’s Case Western Reserve University and later, Texas A&M University in her pursuit of veterinary medicine, taking her far away from her rural roots.
But it wasn’t all hard work for her, her sojourn as the princess of the Celestial Kingdom left her with the title "Sir" and a costume closet the envy of many knights, lords, and ladies.
After declaring for years that she was not an author, Kayla now finds herself writing m/m erotic romance outside of Houston, Texas. While you can take the girl out of the country, you can't turn her into a city slicker. Kayla would still rather be outside getting down and dirty with the boys.
She shares a full house with her favorite animals: a cat, two guinea pigs, a gerbil, three guppies, as well as her husband, son, and daughter.

As I beta read this for Kayla, maybe I am biased, but I love her tales set in the ancient world. She puts a lot of research into her stories to make them as true to the era as possible, but they still come across as living breathing men. Just that their concerns are different from ours.

This was so good. I literally couldn't stop reading it. Lykos and Kas are awesome. I so recommend this short story. I loved when Naresh told Lykos what Kas had said about the mark. This shows that no matter what language you speak your body and voice can show each other how you feel.

M4M Historical Romance at its best.
Ms. Jameth hits another one out of the park. This short stand alone story set in the ancient Hellenic world is a great companion to her previous A Spartan Love. The narrative is fairly straightforward and linear and is replete with a HEA ending. Despite that, the book is still an enjoyable read. Wish the story was a little more fleshed out because there is certainly potential there for expansion, but, that is just my opinion.
Job well done Ms. Jameth, looking forward to your next book.

For once, the book-jacket-description says all you need to know: "Travelling with Narses through conquered Lydia, Lykos hides his identity as a prince of Aenus. He intends to take the measure of the encroaching Persian Empire. But before they reach Sardis, he hears cries for help and charges into battle with mountain bandits. Unable to save the beleaguered merchant, he rescues Kas, a young Persian man.
Now his protector is dead, Kas would like nothing better than to remain with the handsome warrior who came to his aid. But how can he explain that to a man who speaks little but Greek?"
Kas is 18 but looks even more youthful. He 'expresses' his thanks to Lykos in the final chapter. The older Narses, who is Lykos' Persian guide/helper can only say in exasperation: "Greeks!".
Very simple, short story. No profound writing. That last chapter with a concise sex-scene can be fun to read though.
3.5* that I'll round up, since I'm already looking for more by this author.

A wonderful novella set in ancient times. I'm quite the fan of Greek mythos so this short but spicy read held my attention from beginning to end. I'm looking forward to reading more from this author in the future!
