The Decimus Trilogy

Howard Lupus didn't want to go to Italy. However, sent on a quest by his father - the pack alpha - he had little room to argue. Destined to take his father's place as leader of their werewolf pack in Wyoming, he understands the need to learn about those who came before him. But, combing through dusty museum archives and old Roman ruins was not what he wanted to do with his summer. As he discovers more about his elusive gladiator ancestor, he meets a woman who would teach him about much more than ancient history, and possibly something about what it means to be a leader.

Decimus Rocius Lupus, a man cursed with sharing one body with the spirit of a beast, must endure trial after trial in the first century of the Roman Empire. He seeks peace and a grasp on his own humanity as his soul wars with something he can’t see or understand. But through time, he learns about loyalty, love, and redemption in all the unexpected ways.
