Beauty and the Clockwork Beast

A Steampunk Proper Romance

Written by: Nancy Campbell Allen
This Beauty and the Beast retelling is a unique take on the original story. With all the basic elements of the fairy-tale, this story adds a bit of steampunk technology and fantastical elements that enhance the story and make it little more real.

Lucy Pickett comes to Blackwell Manor to tend to her cousin and finds more than she bargained for. With ghosts, werewolves, and vampires involved, she is a bit wary. Lord Miles on the other hand seems to be hiding secrets and has a brusque personality. Will these two find the lasting bond that can come from beauty and the beast?

This story creates a world of what if... What if electricity was never created? What if vampires, werewolves, and ghosts lived among the regular population on a natural basis? While the what-ifs spark the imagination, the realness of the characters make it a fairy tale in believable proportions. While I may not want to live in this world, I definitely love reading about it.

 Covert Ops Written by: Traci Hunter Abramson Teaser: “ Sienna and Craig’s wedding is just around the corner—but with a looming terrorist threat, the quest to make it down the aisle has just turned into a battle to survive.”   Review: I was so excited to read this book. Traci Hunter Abramson set up such a great premise to this story with all of the Saint Squad novels leading up to this one. With Sienna and Craig's wedding along with all of the political hoopla going on, this story does not rest. Traci writes such great suspense! I was left wondering throughout the story whether they they were going to get their happily ever after! There was romance, suspense, and the amazing Saint Squad. Any story with the Saint Squad is full of laughter and adventure. I thoroughly enjoyed this story from beginning to end.

 How to Kiss Your Enemy Written by: Jenny Proctor Oh my goodness this story was adorable! I love the enemies to lover trope and this one had all the makings of it. Mix in a little introspection and growth for the characters and this story brought all the feelings. I knew where Tatum Elliot was coming from and felt a strong connection to her character development throughout the story. This book made me smile from the chemistry between the characters and seeing all the old characters come back. I bet I will find myself re-reading this story soon!
