The Sacred Flame

What are you willing to sacrifice for love? Imagine Romeo and Juliet as grownups in ancient Rome. She is a Vestal Virgin (like a nun) and he is a married man. They fall madly in love. But this time it's not just family that keeps them apart. Now religious vows and the political power of Rome endanger their union. Livia (Vestal Virgin) has almost ended her 30-year obligation to Rome and just wants to settle down with her childhood companion and have a happy life. But Gaius (married man) won't rest until Livia becomes his true love. Wait, did I mention she's forbidden to have sex on pain of death? And then there's Gaius's pesky wife, Justina, who will do anything to keep her dearly beloved husband home where he belongs.
