Inhaltsangabe

A ruthless banker marked for death finds salvation in a single rose.

Venice, 1476. When cunning Florentine banker Micheletto Faliero is caught committing fraud, he’s thrown into the infamous Piombi prison to await execution. His only companion is an enigmatic inmate who leaves behind a mysterious rose and a haunting poem, sparking a spiritual awakening Micheletto can’t explain.

Transformed by what his priest calls the Miracle of the Rose, Micheletto begins secretly serving Venice’s poor, trading greed for grace until his sentence shifts, sparing him. Now exiled in Spain at the height of the Inquisition, he’s pulled into a dangerous new life filled with secret love, religious persecution, and a powerful nobleman determined to ruin him.

And as Inquisitors close in on someone he’s sworn to protect, Micheletto faces a moral crossroads, testing what he’s truly willing to sacrifice for faith and love.

If he chooses wrong, he won’t just lose everything. He’ll lose his soul.

Perfect for fans of faith-based historical fiction, historical Christian romance, and redemption stories, The Saint of the Rose blends a powerful spiritual transformation arc with Shakespearean tragedy, moral dilemmas, and slow-burn romance. Set against the rich backdrop of Renaissance Venice and Spain, this “coming-of-faith”journey explores grace, sacrifice, and divine intervention through a flawed but compelling hero. In a gripping story of second chances and personal redemption, The Saint of the Rose will draw you into a world of star-crossed romance, spurned suitors, and 15th-century religious persecution.
