Description To Books The Champion (Roman trilogy #3)
A Warrior without Equal, a Woman without OptionsTriumphs in the Coliseum--and society bedchambers-- made gladiator Alexius of Iolcos famous for his brutal skill and womanizing ways. Yet the only woman who intrigues him is Tiberia the Younger, who now needs his help. Protecting Tiberia places Alexius in the greatest danger he has ever known--from her vengeful father and his own heart...Becoming a temple priestess may be an honor, but Tibi can't bear to surrender her freedom or her newfound faith. Alexius's solution stuns her. Marriage...to a gladiator! Scorned by her noble family, Tibi always felt unworthy. But with her champion by her side, can she accept--and give--a love strong enough to vanquish their enemies?

Awesome, awesome! I loved this book!! This trilogy has been one of my all time favorites!Until now, I assumed Love Inspired was synonymous with light romance (not that there's anything wrong with that) but thanks to Carla Capshaw I'll have to mentally re-shelve the line. Sparks started flying in chapter one of The Champion and the romantic tension continued to build making this summer read as refreshing as a glass of iced tea, and not nearly as sweet as I expected. Fans of the line needn't worry, your favorite Love Inspired authors haven't swapped places with Harlequin Blaze
Carla Capshaw's third book in the gladiator series is just as enjoyable as the other two were, if not better! I've tried to think about what makes The Champion such a favorite of mine, and I came up with a few things: The author makes ancient Rome come alive with her descriptions and storyline, and it seems like you are there and involved. Her characters have such a delightful way of interaction at times, with playful, teasing banter. Many other authors today have their characters act like they
Alexius is amazing. Just saying... While I did not really experience the unsavory side of him, I still saw the fallout of his past actions in a way to make his struggles believable. That he was willing to take in Tibi even though it could cost him his fortune made him a hero in my eyes. He did everything to protect her and to encourage her to be herself.Tibi was a bit more confusing to me. She had a brutally abusive father yet was uncowed and was beautiful yet did not know it (as many heroines
Very goodLoved the story line. Good clean wholesome Christian story. Would love to have a 2nd book with them in Greece with children
Unlike so many historical novels set in the old west, this was a nice change. In the old Roman world of gladiators, senators, and the general mistreatment of everyone the upper classes deem less than, we discover the story of Alexius and Tibi.A little tough to get going, since I hadnt read the first two stories in what was obviously a series. But I let go the questions that arose over the mention of other couples and focused on what was going on between the two main characters, which kept me
I really enjoyed this one with a humorous but angry gladiator who speaks bluntly to his love. The scene in the Colosseum stables....oh my.
