About this listen

A woman with a devastating secret. A man bent on proving his worth. A chance encounter that catapults them into the heart of history.

When the daughter of a prominent Roman general meets a disinherited Jewish immigrant, neither one can dream of God's plan to transform them into the most influential couple of the early church. Nor can they anticipate the mountains that will threaten to bury them. Their courtship unwittingly shadowed by murder and betrayal, Priscilla and Aquila slowly work to build a community of believers, while their lives grow increasingly complicated thanks to a shaggy dog, a mysterious runaway, and a ruthless foe desperate for love. But when they're banished from their home by a capricious emperor, they must join forces with an unusual rabbi named Paul and fight to turn treachery into redemption.

With impeccable research and vivid detail, Daughter of Rome is both an emotive love story and an immersive journey through first-century Rome and Corinth, reminding listeners once again why Debbie Macomber has said that "no one brings the Bible to life like Tessa Afshar."

Love! Love! Love!!!

A beautiful story! Thank Tessa Afshar for bringing Priscilla's story to life. It is an AMAZING one!

I read the reviews and was a bit unsure if I should go for this. I have and have read all your books. I knew when you brought this story to the public and was excited seeing it on audible.

Beautiful story but however, I understand the issue with graphic love scenes. I had to use earphones to listen to those parts as anyone listening might mistake it as an x-rated story. So, please, if this can be made moderate next time, we would appreciate it. We know what happens between couples. It is good to leave the rest to imagination.


Pilar Witherspoon!!!! WELL DONE!!! You brought this story to life! I laughed, cried, and could feel all the emotions the characters felt. You did an AMAZING job!


Thank you Audible for this as well. Thanks

Thank you Tessa Afshar for another Masterpiece!!!
