Domina

Golden Girl of Rome Livia Drusilla loses everything in the Civil War as her father and husband find themselves on the losing side, forcing her into exile. Livia has to make a heartbreaking decision to save her son's life and her own.

When an amnesty is suddenly declared, a pregnant Livia returns to Rome and sets out to rebuild her family fortunes - and save her friend - by seducing Gaius. But she is still married, and so is he...

Livia has to help Gaius keep his power over the Senate despite her secret mission to restore the Republic, while managing a vicious family feud between her son Tiberius and Octavia's son, Marcellus.

Livia's marriage to Gaius is compromised when she learns that she can't bear him any children. As her rivals circle, she stokes the antipathy between Marcellus and Agrippa to restore the balance of power in her favour.

Gaius' sudden illness provokes a political crisis and reveals the true weakness of Livia's position without him. It's up to Livia to resolve the situation and keep Gaius safe.

Livia has no choice but to eliminate Marcellus, who plans to kill her sons and exile her and Antigone when he assumes Gaius' position, and must push forward via a poison plot at the beach despite discovering that their agent is in love with the target.
