Book by: Jamie Ogle
Jamie Ogle is a fresh new voice in biblical fiction.
Of Love and Treason takes readers back to Rome 270 AD, during one of the several waves of Christian persecution. The novel begins slowly, immersing readers in the sights, sounds and smells of the ancient city, exposing the challenges of daily life.
The story focuses on the challenges of a young woman who is blind, desperate to see again, experiencing a miracle from the One True God when she meets a Christian. When an edict from the emperor forbids marriage, notary Valentine does everything within his power to preserve the sanctity of marriage – earning a price on his head and notoriety as The Cupid.
There’s a colourful cast of characters – Romans and Christians alike.
An incredible amount of research has been done to provide a unique reading experience.
If you enjoy biblical fiction, check out Of Love and Treason. And if you’ve ever wondered how Valentine’s Day came about, check out Of Love and Treason.
