The Patrician's Fortune by Joan Kayse

Lured into a conspiracy set by his duplicitous employer and sentenced to die, spy Damon Primax finds himself saved by a woman too beautiful to be anything less than a goddess. But his gratitude is tempered by the bitter truth that his life is the price he pays to be a pawn in a patrician game.

When the attraction and desire he feels is reciprocated, Damon dares to dream again only to have it threatened by the intrigue of powerful men who would see them both destroyed.

Can the clash of social class and greed be overcome or will Damon pay the ultimate price to protect the woman he loves?
