Forbidden love, magic, danger and desire...Young Empress Elishiba has vowed to protect her people, even if it means marrying an enemy. But when the mysterious man known as Amshazar arrives as a spokesman for her future husband, her passion is ignited. Amshazar is an attractive and powerful man who is rumored to be a sorcerer, and he is allied to her enemy. Consorting with him would be disastrous. Why then does she let him distract her from her goal? Amshazar is a gifted magi and an envoy of the gods. Falling in love with the Empress Elishiba wasn't part of his plan, and yet he cannot resist. Their connection is vital, their desire undeniable-but their forbidden relationship soon captures them in a web of danger, a web where magic and romance weave their own vibrant and inexorable threads. As the enemy seeks to destroy Elishiba and all she stands for, Amshazar must fulfill his duty and empower her as a powerful Sorceress, whatever the cost.
