Book Description:
With the birth of the imperial heir days away,
Marcus is entrusted with an urgent mission by his best friend, Emperor Titus Sergius
Flavus – unraveling the mysterious disappearance of every living soul in a
trading post along the barrier. Unfortunately, all the clues point to the one
woman he loved and lost. Even though his mind urges caution, his heart longs
for a second chance to prove to her they belong together.
The daughter
of the most infamous courtesan in Emona, Sexta faked her death in order to gain
her freedom, never guessing fate would entwine her path with the one man she
loved enough to let go. But now, she not only has to deny her feelings for him
after every tantalizing kiss—she needs to prove her innocence before the true
enemy brings the empire to its knees.
Review:
Crista
McHugh takes us on a sexy and dangerous adventure in Shattered Web the 4th
book in the Deizian Empire series. Fate sure does have a way of bringing people
together, even when one of them would rather run in the other direction.
Sexta has
loved Marcus for a long time, she loved him enough to let him go but fate has
other Ideas. When she fakes her own death to gain her freedom she is finally
able to do what she has always wanted. But is she really free? Soon Sexta is in
a battle for not only her life but the safety of the whole empire. Can she
prove that she is incent or will her and the empire fall?
Sexta and
Marcus are in for one hell of a ride, Love, adventure and heart break are in
their future, they will have to learn to trust one another to save each other
along with the empire.
What a great
adventure! I loved Sexta and Marcus, they are so perfect for one another and
are so funny when they are battling each other. They seem to butt heads a lot
because are both strong willed and refuse to give up, and this makes for a
really great story. I found myself finishing this book in one day, I just could
not put it down I had to know what happened next. I highly recommend reading
this if you love a great Fantasy adventure, its perfect!!
