Summary

In a world fueled by greed and corruption, where airships rule the skies and coal mines have been turned into prisons, Scarlett Moon has one goal: survive. Being tough and looking out for herself is the only way to stay alive, but when her best friend, Rory, is arrested and returned to the mines, all of Scarlett's carefully built walls threaten to crumble.

After being rescued by an airship full of pirates, led by the sexy and irresistible Asher Kimura, Scarlett finds herself surrounded by cons and fugitives, and thrust into the middle of a coal-smuggling business. When they take her to Columbus, the one place she never wanted to set foot in again, she wants nothing more than to get away. And her discomfort only grows as she becomes increasingly drawn to Asher.

But everything changes when she discovers there may be a way to rescue Rory. Enlisting the pirates' help, Scarlett sets out on a mission to save her friend, praying that her overwhelming attraction to Asher doesn't mean the end to her freedom - in more ways than one.

What a Pleasant Surprise!

This was not what I was expecting, I've read and listened to quite a few of Kate L Mary's books in the past and loved them but this, this is different! Good different well great different really, it's fresh, matured somewhat filled with twists and turns I wasn't expecting. This story really does take you on a journey. I found myself connecting with Scarlett on so many levels and I just know many women will... Always trying to be the strongest versions of ourselves for everyone around us, everyone we love and the people who intimidate us and especially when we feel vulnerable! I just loved the narrator, she just got it so right! Seriously put the kettle on, get the comfy blanket out turn up the volume and give your ears a treat this is a must listen. I’m off to get book 2! Fantastic!!!!

Steampunk Romance?

I received this book via a promo code and this is my voluntary review.

Our Steampunk fugitive Scarlett Moon is on the run from the corrupt law officials who want to send her back to the coal mines. A revolution against technology by The Luddites has left the world resembling a cross between Vegas and a Charles Dickens novel. (kind of like Firefly but minus the space ships) eventually her luck runs out and she's about to get nabbed when Swashbuckling Pirates swoop down and save her orphan butt. Her friend, Rory, however hadn't been so lucky. Assuming her best friend was just being sent back where they'd escaped from, the coal mines, Scarlett had been trying to move on and focus on her own survival. When a conversation with her rescuer Asher convinces Scarlett that Rory's fate is so much darker and twisted than anything she could ever have imagined. Scarlett and her crew of renegades join up with the Pirates to attempt a rescue operation.

The overall world building didn't venture as deep as I was used to with Kate L Mary's work (Outliers, Zombies or Species Traitor) but this post-modern world civilisation was just as action packed. Scarlett is much closer to a cynical version of Vivian in her Broken World series and its easy to see how her experiences of losing her parents etc have given her into this harder shell.

It's enjoyable.
