Customer Reviews
A Terrific Tale
This new and utterly engaging tale by the talented Anne Renwick is a bit of a departure for her. With only passing mention of steampunk elements the focus is on time travel and the paranormal. In this case, the paranormal element is a passionate, sexy, smart and handsome ghost of the male persuasion. Our heroine is also smart and passionate who unwittingly travels back in time to save him and unexpectedly fall in love.
Renwick’s signature style of science-based stories continues with this story. This time out, glowing snails are the zoological focus of our hero and heroine allowing them to bond and explore their love for each other.
Rounding out the story we have treachery, midnight trysts, two nasty villains, hidden passageways plus a secret lab.
Anne Renwick shows a real talent for writing gloriously steamy love scenes, several of which occur in this book.
This is a standalone story which is a shorter length so it’s a perfect starting point to try out Renwick and for her confirmed fans, this is a lovely addition to Renwick’s Elemental Steampunk series that you don’t want to miss.
I received an ARC of this book from the author and this is my voluntary, honest opinion.
Highly recommended.
