Passions of New Pompeii — Aubrey Ross

New Pompeii, playground of the rich and decadent, has been operational for two years when Elaina decides something drastic must be done. Her brother and the other founders are out of control. Their cruelty and disregard for the lives and dignity of the city's inhabitants has become widespread and twisted. So Elaina accepts her brother's invitation and attends the gladiator games. She finds the battle revolting and barbaric, yet stirring in ways she didn't anticipate. Theos, her brother's new champion, is mesmerizing. His sculpted body and untamed spirit leave her aching for an up close and personal demonstration of his strength.

Theos is torn between frustration and anger. His master has requested that he pleasure Fedoran women before and he has always refused, but this time is different. He must convince Elaina that he is content, that New Pompeii exists for the pleasure of all Fedorans. If she succeeds in closing the city, she will nullify his reason for living.
