Think Mulan. Emmajin, granddaughter of the great Genghis Khan, can out-fight her brothers. More than anything she wants to join the army, but it’s forbidden for women. The Khan gives her a more important assignment – to gather information from Marco Polo, a merchant from Italy, so the Mongols can learn what they need to know to conquer Europe. But Marco Polo is a handsome sweet talker, and things get steamy! Can Emmajin betray the man she’s falling in love with? Can she betray her Khan?
I read this book because the Mongols were a fierce war machine, and I wanted lots of action. Yes, there’s blood and body parts … but I didn’t expect Emmajin to spend so much time wondering how it would feel to stroke her fingers across Marco’s hairy chest. Bleuch, too much for me, you might like it if you’re into that sort of thing. At least the war scene near the end in was intense. Emmajin is vicious! [Free Pizza]

A girl falls in love with a guy, but the guy didn’t even know that she existed. So she gave him a gift and then he gave it to someone else that he liked. I thought it was so great that I read it two times. Why would some boy give a gift to a girl that he likes when some other girl gave it to him? This part made me laugh. It was a shock! Ha! Ha! Ha! [choppy]
