Steam Guardians 02 - A Captain and a Corset
Mary Wine
There's Trouble in the Skies...For Sophia Stevenson, there's no going back to the life she knew. She never asked for the powers that make her a precious commodity to the secret society of Illuminists—and their archenemies. Captain Bion Donkova would give anything to possess the powers that have fallen in Sophia's lap. If only the beautiful, infuriating woman could stay out of trouble, he wouldn't have to keep coming to her rescue...Bion and Sophia have friction to spare—and nothing fuels a forbidden passion better than danger...Praise for A Lady Can Never Be Too Curious:"Fascinating...inspiring...The chemistry is off the charts."—Fresh Fiction"Fast-paced, unique...a whole new world that I can't wait to read more of."—Night Owl Reviews"This story grabbed me right at the beginning...it's going in my personal library."—Long and Short ReviewsReview"As the high-stakes escapade unfolds, fans and new readers alike will be spellbound and eager for more of this clever, sexy series. " - RT Book Reviews"The world building was amazing, and I really felt like I was sucked into the story and swept along for the ride with the characters. Plus the setup for book 3 was a nice touch, so now I have to wait for that to come out. Well played, Ms. Wine, well played." - Rom Fan Reviews"This is the second book that I have read about the Illuminist Society and I was not disappointed. Sophia and Bion are total opposites and what attracts more? The fire between the pair, plus quite a bit of action, and danger keeps you reading. Historical prim and proper London, plus a secret society with more open rules, makes a very interesting blend. I cannot wait for the next episode." - Book LoonsAbout the AuthorAcclaimed author Mary Wine has written over 30 works of erotic fantasy, romantic suspense, and historical romance.
