Fever by Dee Shulman

Fever
by Dee Shulman

Quite a long story - I skimmed through quite a lot of it as I thought it was too long and was taking a while getting to the main story. Sethos is a Roman gladiator in AD152. He loves Livia, but she is betrothed to a powerful man, one not willing to let her go. Eva is a student in 2012. She is super intelligent and loves the sciences. A lecture and show by an American scientist goes drastically wrong, and Eva is unknowingly infected with a deadly virus which kills her but then immediately brings her to life again. Meanwhile, Livia and Sethos are discovered by the betrothed and both murdered, but Sethos wakes uninjured in a parallel world. He finds he can time travel, and journeys to 2012 to find the cause of a fever which killed him in the end and ended the life of many others. He bumps into Eva who looks uncannily like Livia - in fact, is her. She starts to have flashbacks of her previous life as Livia, and realises she and Sethos are destined to be together. Complicated, eh?
