Emma is desperate. She needs money and she needs it fast. Banks have turned her down so her only option is her billionaire ex-husband. What she's not prepared for are his terms he will demand. Dimitri sees his wife for the first time in three years and is furious that she still has the ability to make his body ache to possess her. When she asks prettily for him to co-sign on her loan, he refuses. Instead, he'll give her the money. In return, she will share his bed and bear him a child. What neither anticipates is that the love they'd previously shared will ignite once again and throw them into the flames of passion. The heat of their desire is too strong for them to deny.

From Bedroom to Courtroom
Author: Saundra Schwartz
Publisher: Barkhuis
ISBN: 9492444208
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
From Bedroom to Courtroom argues that the fictional trial scenes in the Greek ideal romances reflect Roman legal institutions and ideas, particularly relating to family and sexuality. Given the genre's emphasis on love and chastity, the specter of adultery looms over most of the scenarios that develop into elaborate trials. Such scenes shed light on the Greek reception of the criminalization of adultery promulgated by the moral legislation during the reign of Augustus. This book focuses on three major novels whose composition coincided with the extension of Roman citizenship when access to Roman courts was granted to increasing numbers of inhabitants of the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire. Chariton's Callirhoe is interpreted as an artifact of the generation after the implementation of the Augustan moral legislation, particularly its criminalization of adultery. Achilles Tatius' Leucippe and Clitophon was created in a legally pluralistic milieu where shrewd sophists learned to navigate and exploit the interstices between the overlapping jurisdictions of imperial and local law. Finally, Heliodorus' Aethiopica, widely regarded as the masterpiece of the genre, adapts the type-scene of the trial to present a series of case studies of different types of government, culminating in the utopian kingdom of Meroe. Through the novels' melodramatic trial scenes, we can begin to see how the opening of Roman courtroom to Greek-speaking citizens of the Roman Empire stimulated dreams of a world in which universal justice under Rome was wed to Hellenism.
