Mara, Daughter of the Nile by Eloise Jarvis McGraw

Description: The story of Mara, a slave in Ancient Egypt who knows next to nothing of her past. Her blue eyes set her apart- often making her easy to recognize. When Mara finds herself facing the choice of life as a spy for the pharoh queen Hatshepsut or life as a slave, she makes a dangerous decision. In the beginning, all that matters is her freedom- no one else is worth anything to Mara. But when she becomes a *double* agent, her role gets progressively harder... Especially once she and one employer begin to have feelings for each other...

Full of political intrigue, espionage, romance, and a good amount of action/adventure. Very well developed characters.
