In AD 107, after a grueling campaign against Rome's fierce enemy, the kingdom of Dacia, Gaius Fabius, returns home in triumph. With the bloody battles over, the commander of the Lucky Fourth Legion now craves life's simple pleasures: leisurely soaks in fragrant baths, over-flowing cups of wine, and a long holiday at his seaside villa to savor his pleasure slaves. On a whim, he purchases a spirited young Dacian captive and unwittingly sparks a fresh outbreak of the Dacian war; an intimate struggle between two sworn enemies with love and honor at stake.

Allerix survived the wars against Rome, but now he is a sex slave rather than a victor. Worse, the handsome general who led the destruction of his people now commands his body. When escape appears impossible, Alle struggles to find a way to preserve his dignity and exact vengeance upon the hated Romans. Revenge will be his, that is, if he doesn't lose his heart to his lusty Roman master.

Dominus is a plot-packed erotic m/m fantasy that transports listeners back to ancient Rome during the reign of the Emperor Trajan (98-117). This is the first book in an alternate history series - a tumultuous journey filled with forbidden love, humor, sex, friendship, political intrigue, deception, and murder.

......A plea for the mighty bastard, Gaius Fabius.

I’ll preface that I have read all three books available in the series by JP Kenwood, this one gets the story rolling. I personally love book three, but after hearing the characters voiced, I’m positive all of them will be fantastic in audio format.

The narrator is splendid in his ability to jump through each character so effortlessly. Although, I was a bit taken aback with his voice for Allerix, it grew on me, and now I find that I’m looking forward to more dialogue with him involved.

What makes these stories so lovely is the immense research and detail the writer has put into the series. I applaud the intensity to which they developed each storyline with meticulous emotion and heart.

To be clear, Gaius is a jerk. Totally privileged male, treating humans as property (which is literally what happened in ancient Rome). However, he becomes endearing with noticing things like the shabby sleeping quarters for his ‘beautiful boys’ and taking time to ask about the lives of those around him, regardless of societal standing. As much as we are to despise his purchase of Allerix, it is deep down a means of protection.

I love this series, and am very certain the remaining books will be just as wonderful as this first book in the Audible series.

Listen and enjoy, you won’t be disappointed.

I loved this audiobook so much!! The author and narrator did a fantastic job with this story and it left me wanting more. I was hooked from the moment I hit play and never wanted the story to end. I need more of these characters and was so sad when I heard the end because I wanted it to keep going forever. I loved the push and pull between these two characters from such different cultures. Gaius is a man who knows what he wants and goes after it. This time it was a captive named Allerix. What mades this book even better is it was from the POV of both men. I loved getting to see the world through two completely different views. It brought so much more depth and understanding to the world and these characters. Watching these two open up to each other slowly was definitely a lot of fun. I can't wait to find out what else is in store for these amazing characters and this world.

Amazing!

The audio of this book is amazingly fun. The story opens in the modern day at an archeological dig as a potential ancient murder scene has just been uncovered. The story then moves to the early 2nd century, where the victorious Commander Gaius Fabius Rufus is celebrating his victory over the Dacians with a rather expensive trophy--a new Dacian pleasure slave. The strength of this story lies in the well-developed characters and their relationships with each other, their masters, and their station in life. Everyone, even Commander Fabius, has a Dominus, and the dangerous business of staying alive in the ancient Roman empire revolves around keeping Dom happy. The book reaches an action-packed climax that had me immediately reaching for book 2.

Staying alive means keeping your Dominus happy

J.P. Kenwood is a new to me author and I am kicking myself for waiting so long to listen/read Dominus. You will need a fan and ice cold water this book is so steamy. The narration by Hannibal and Nick is out of this world fabulous. If you enjoy a sexy slow burn historical romance you will love this book. Note it ends on cliffhanger.

Excellent

This is an excellent audio book. The narration was great and made the characters and storyline of a book I love come to life. I was immediately drawn back to this wonderful story. Ancient ruins, ancient life, sex, romance, a mix of Roman history and culture, political intrigue: what’s there that one can’t enjoy and love? Definitely erotic with a mix of suspense and intrigue. Highly recommend!

Loved the audiobook!
