A Certain Mercy

Trapped in a loveless marriage to Joram, a ruthless gambler, Zara finds herself drawn to the one man she can never have—Auriga Maximus, the famed charioteer enslaved by her husband. What begins as stolen glances ignites into forbidden passion—and when their secret is exposed, Zara faces death by stoning.

But in her darkest moment, standing before an angry mob in the Temple courts, a Galilean teacher named Yeshua offers her something she never expected: mercy.

Spared from execution but shattered by shame, Zara must navigate a treacherous world of political intrigue, religious persecution, and her own haunting past.
