Bec McMaster delivers yet another stunning installment to
the London Steampunk series with her latest book, MY
LADY
QUICKSILVER. Rosalind Fairchild desires the destruction of
the Echelon. A lot of this has to do with her brother, who
has disappeared. Rosa believes that if she can infiltrate
the Echelon, she can find a way to help him. However, once
she becomes a secretary to Sir Jasper Lynch and the
Nighthawks, she finds that it may be more difficult to gain
the answers she needs from him.
She doesn't count on falling for the restrained Lynch.
Almost methodical in his thinking, Lynch seems immune to
seduction, yet when Rosa is in close proximity to him, she
can't help but wonder if he feels the chemistry too.
McMaster has a particular talent with words. She weaves
such detailed and intricate scenes that it seems almost
impossible not to feel immerged in her world. Such rich,
lush backgrounds and multi-faceted characters make her
stand out amongst a sea of talented writers. Plot twists
here and there only add that shock factor and don't forget
the epic romances that she is able to create!
If I had to pick a series that I think had it all and
continues to get better with each release, I would pick
McMaster's London Steampunk series. This series just
has so
much to offer and many avenues to pursue for future books.
Fans of Kristen Callihan's Darkest London and Elizabeth
Hoyt's Maiden Lane series would get a kick out of this
series. I would highly recommend MY LADY QUICKSILVER to
readers who
enjoy their Historical Romance with a little paranormal
twist and a ton of action thrown in.
SUMMARY
Determined to destroy the Echelon she despises, Rosalind
Fairchild is on seemingly easy mission. Get in. Uncover the
secrets of her brother's disappearance. And get out. In order to infiltrate the Nighthawks and find their leader,
Sir Jasper Lynch, Rosalind will pose as their secretary. But
she doesn't count on Lynch being such a dangerously
charismatic man, challenging her at every turn, forcing her
to re-evaluate everything she knows about the enemy. He could be her most dangerous nemesis — or the ally she
never dreamed existed.
