Johnson, blending together history, romance, mecha-dragons and magic against the glittering backdrop of 1880’s Victorian London. FROM THE BOOK: It seemed impossible that Brixton could both remember and forget everything about their first kiss as her lips parted under his once more. The same heightened desperation called to him as her softness melted effortlessly against the tautness of his body. He tasted the same soft, malty sweetness of her mouth, feeling the fullness of her lips as they flowered beneath his. Her body curved into his, her fingers gripping his knuckles. He heard her same, muted sigh of pleasure as their joined hands collapsed between them, and he felt the same heady rush as they collided into each other. But this time was different, too. He resisted the urge to run his hands down her body, to gather her against him. Before, he had been too intoxicated by the taste of her to wonder if she could handle the full extent of his passion; this time, he was overwhelmed, but he was all too aware of what it was like to lose her. The equal power of their magic diminished as he began to be consumed. It could have been years or seconds since their last meeting; he had wanted her then, and he only wanted her more now. The engines behind them sparked; the ship began to sink. Brixton felt his own destruction become increasingly inevitable before she reluctantly tore herself away from him. His voice was a husky whisper as he stared into the silver seas of Adelaide’s gaze. “I’ve missed you.” WHAT READERS ARE SAYING: "I've certainly loved every minute of this story, and I can't wait for the next book in this series!" ~ Pris, Goodreads Reviewer "An interesting and enjoyable historical, steam-punk story full of magic, dragons, legends, history, friendship, family, loyalty and love." ~ Zany Bibliophile Book Blog Review

Each blade was clothed in a leather scabbard, but the silver and obsidian of the daggers’ hilts winked at me, as though it was calling for me.
