I died and woke up as Rome's most doomed emperor

by Charlotte Nguyen

Marcus Chen's normal life ends in a car crash—and begins again in ancient Rome, trapped in the body of a man whose memories aren't his own. But this isn't just any Roman citizen: he's inherited the life of an elderly emperor standing before the Senate, and every instinct screams that something terrible is about to happen. With seventy-three years of someone else's memories crashing through his mind and no idea how he got here, Marcus has mere moments to figure out who he is, what he's done, and why everyone in the Forum is looking at him with barely concealed hatred. History was never his best subject, but he's about to get a crash course in Roman politics—where one wrong word means death. The only problem? He's starting to suspect he's already made that fatal mistake.
