Amelia Darcy has no interest in marrying well. Her heart
belongs to the sky and the dirigibles of brass and steel
that swoop over Victorian England. But when her father, an
eccentric inventor, dies, the Darcy siblings are left with
scrap metal—and not a penny to their names. Their
only hope to save the family reputation and fortune is to
embark on a quest to discover an invention of historical
importance in honor of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee.
Armed with only her father's stories of a forgotten da
Vinci workshop, a mechanically enhanced falcon, and an
Italian cook, Amelia takes flight for Florence, Italy. But
her quest is altered when her kitecycle crashes into the
airship of ex–Air Marshal—and scandalous dime novel
hero—Tucker Gentry. Tuck agrees to escort Amelia to
her destination, but the two are challenged by political
unrest, a devious sky pirate, and their own sizzling
attraction. Soon the pair is dragged into an international
conspiracy that could change the course of history...again.
