Steampunk
Meljean Brook, “The New York Times” bestselling author of “The Iron Duke” and “Heart of Steel” returns to the Iron Seas with a riveting new adventure of steampunk and passionate romance…A century after a devastating volcanic eruption forced Iceland’s inhabitants to abandon its shores, the island is enshrouded in legend. Fishermen tell tales of giant trolls guarding the land, and of seductive witches who steal men’s hearts. But the truth behind the legends is mechanical, not magic – and the mystery of the island a matter of life and death for a community of women who once spilled noble blood to secure their freedom. Five years ago, Annika unwittingly endangered that secret, but her sister Kalla took the blame and was exiled. Now Annika serves on the airship Phateon, flying from port to port in search of her sister, and longing to return home …but that home is threatened when expedition leader David Kentewess comes aboard. Determined to solve the mystery of his own origin, David will stop at nothing to expose Annika’s secrets.But when disaster strikes, leaving David and Annika stranded on a glacier and pursued by a madman, their very survival depends on keeping the heat rising between them – and generating lots of steam…”Riveted” by Meljean Brook is steampunk romance at its very best …and steamiest. Praise for Meljean Brook: “A stunning blend of steampunk setting and poignant romance – smart, sexy, breathtaking, and downright addicting”. (Ilona Andrews). “Meljean Brook has brilliantly defined the new genre of steampunk romance”. (Jayne Ann Krentz). Meljean Brook lives in Oregon with her family. She is the author of the “Iron Seas “steampunk series, which include “The Iron Duke” and “Heart of Steel”, and are also published by Penguin.

Steampunk
In a history very different from our own, the Civil War rages on in Texas. Zeppelins fill the air, steam power vehicles battle horses for space on the roads and bodies lay strewn through the wreckage of the Sisters of the Merciful Truth Convent, innocent victims of a local turf war. Three sisters, raised in the convent, emerge from the horror to find their lives of family and devotion over, and their separate lives of crime about to begin.
In lawless times, where faith and love battle doubt and hate, Justice now sees the world from behind the barrel of a gun. She falls in with a handsome and mysterious miscreant as she attempts to carve a place in the ruined world and search for her lost sisters. But when her life of crime catches up to her, Justice will learn the meaning of true love, and family ties.
