Princess of Egypt.
Cleopatra Selene is the only daughter of the brilliant Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and General Marcus Antonius of Rome. She's grown up with jewels on her arms, servants at her feet, and all the pleasures of a palace at her command, and she wants only to follow in her mother's footsteps and become a great and powerful queen.

Prisoner of Rome.
Then the Roman ruler Octavianus, who has always wanted Egypt's wealth, launches a war that destroys all Selene has ever known. Taken to live in Octavianus' palace in Rome, she vows to defeat him and reclaim her kingdom at all costs. Yet even as she gathers support for her return, Selene finds herself torn between two young men and two different paths to power. Will love distract her from her goal - or help her achieve her true destiny?

Epic in scope and ravishing in detail, this audio book reveals the extraordinary life of a girl long hidden in history: the remarkable Cleopatra Selene.

this is like the best book I have EVER read. It was alittle sad, but I have always been interested in Egypt's history, especially Rome's takeover, and I LOVE reading fiction. This book was the perfect blend of both. :D oh, and since the main guy is Juba II, my friends and I have started calling him Juba Junya (like junior), it's a lot more fun to say.

This is an amazing book. I highly recommend it. Heart wrenching, but beautiful.
