As today is St. Valentine’s Day, I’m featuring this audiobook about the man himself! I’m listening to it right now and it’s a complete theatrical experience with music and multiple narrators that function as actors. It’s engaging and interesting, though I will say that I have not finished it and I would not say it’s a children’s story; it’s geared to adults.

I was offered a copy from the author and Penny at Author Marketing Experts, but I could not get it to load onto my phone correctly. My copy came through Audible credits.

Here’s the scoop:

Rome, 268 AD. In an age of tyranny and turmoil, an eternal love story ignites a revolution. Valentine, a once-fearsome warrior reborn from the brink of death, sheds his violent past for a new destiny inspired by his blind lover, Agatha.

Amidst the ruthless rule of a merciless emperor, Valentine undertakes a clandestine mission: to unite lovers in secret ceremonies, defying imperial decrees that threaten to obliterate the Christian faith.

As Valentine’s covert acts of defiance grow bolder, he challenges the tyrannical order, planting the seeds for a celebration of love that will echo through the ages—becoming the foundation of what we now cherish as Valentine’s Day. The Legend of Valentine is an epic tale of love, war, faith, and rebellion.

Against the backdrop of an empire in chaos, this gripping saga invites listeners into a world where love defies all odds, heroes rise from the shadows, and the undying spirit of hope shines through the darkest times. Discover the man behind the myth, witness the birth of a legend, and experience a love story so profound it promises to live forever. Are there any limits to what one man will endure for his true love?
