Her life is changed by the pirate's greed... and his inconvenient desire for her. Princess Mayra thought she knew the meaning of suffering in Caged Princess (Book One in Whispers of Steam), but nothing could have prepared her for the betrayals and secrets that hide in her path. Will she find a way to break free and reclaim her throne, or will she be forever trapped in a world of steam and shadow? Prepare for a mix of romance and rebellion in An Elven Debutante (Book One in Airships & Dragons), where Stelia, a quiet young noblewoman, defies convention and risks everything to protect a forbidden love. When her act of defiance sparks a chain reaction of danger and intrigue, she must rely on wit and courage to survive.
