Laura is engaged to her true love, the Doge of Venice’s oldest son, Roberto. She is also a part of a secret society of women who control Venice, called the Segreta. When Roberto is charged with the murder of a Turkish princess, the people turn against the Doge and his family in a crucial point when the Turkish prince is threatening war. Laura tries to get the Segreta to help her save Roberto, but Laura starts to doubt how well she knows Roberto.
This book is the second book in the Cross My Heart series and both books are really fun, but it’s not necessary to read the first book to understand the second. The first book does set up the characters more, but the adventures and storyline move quickly enough to keep any reader engaged in Heart of Glass. I love this book because the setting in Venice is portrayed well and it’s fun to see how the characters weave their way through the mysteries they face.
