Thanks to Kayleigh Clark of Berkley/NAL, I am giving away one print copy of Lady of the Eternal City by Kate Quinn.
Book Description:
National bestselling author Kate Quinn returns with the long-awaited fourth volume in the Empress of Rome series, an unforgettable new tale of the politics, power, and passion that defined ancient Rome.
Elegant, secretive Sabina may be Empress of Rome, but she still stands poised on a knife’s edge. She must keep the peace between two deadly enemies: her husband Hadrian, Rome’s brilliant and sinister Emperor; and battered warrior Vix, who is her first love. But Sabina is guardian of a deadly secret: Vix’s beautiful son Antinous has become the Emperor’s latest obsession.
Empress and Emperor, father and son will spin in a deadly dance of passion, betrayal, conspiracy, and war. As tragedy sends Hadrian spiraling into madness, Vix and Sabina form a last desperate pact to save the Empire. But ultimately, the fate of Rome lies with an untried girl, a spirited redhead who may just be the next Lady of the Eternal City . . .

In case you happen to see this before you post the winner for this contest, I thought it best to advise that I have won and accepted this book as a prize in another giveaway already. The other book for which I competed in your giveaway that is among those that have not had a winner declared is The Turnip Princess (see comment on that post in re: the same). Cheers, Kara S
