A glamorous social butterfly heroine + a kind older male lead = a massive Eastern Roman Empire saga
Theodora, the Eastern Roman Theater's leading beauty, is no good at anything and excels at doing nothing. She loves talking back and making changes, but hates compromise.
After accidentally taking down a villain, she catches the heir's eye and is coaxed and cajoled into the palace.
From then on, she goes further and further down the road of building a career, fanning the flames from the emperor's bedside and thriving in the palace...
Justinian, forty and unmarried, an eligible bachelor, the Eastern Roman Empire's foremost doctor of law. He loves his wife and his work, but not sleep.
He's bald because he's so devoted to the study of law.
Then the empress steals the show and takes over his territory. You poor souls, now you know what it's like to have no career prospects, right? You don't know how to lift a bowl together like Liang Hong and Meng Guang, or treat each other with mutual respect!
I want both Roman law and Theodora!
Rise up, women of the Eastern Roman Empire!
My body, my choice! The world belongs to men, to women, and to all of us! Who says women are inferior to men!
