This steampunk retelling of the story of Rapunzel includes romance, mystery, and danger. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wished there were more to read!
Hazel Hughes is the main character. She is a talented nurse who is plagued by a recurring dream that has gotten increasingly more troubling. Sam McInnes is her employer and a prestigious doctor who has pioneered medical advancements and who is sought out by the most eligible single ladies of London. When Hazel is approached by a long lost relative, Sam is determined to accompany her on an unexpected trip to ensure that no harm comes her way. After journeying in an enormous submarine, trying to solve a mystery regarding Hazel's ladies maid, and figuring out a family mystery, Hazel and Sam's relationship is deepening and becoming something more than what it was.
Nancy Campbell Allen has crafted yet another steampunk romance that will enthrall readers and keep them interested until the last page.
