I love a smart woman and in the 1800’s of London, women were
supposed to be trinkets to toy with as a man saw fit.
Janette Aston would have nothing to do with that
lifestyle. Her mom brought her up to be
curious and to learn. To learn what the
Illuminists knew. Illuminists are those
who know and use science for advancement in technology-just so you don’t have
to look it up, if you weren’t sure.
Darius Lawley is a studly form of an Illuminist, smart and
knowledgeable with a carved body straight from a wet dream.
Janette’s first venture into their world led her to be a captor
of Darius as he’s in charge of infiltrators wanting to steal the advancements
they’ve achieved.
Sparks fly between them, and not just the electric
form. Janette has a special power and is
caught between the Illuminists and their enemies. Her life’s on the line and Darius wants to
save her, yet if there’s a chance she’ll be in the hands of the enemy, he must
kill her.
Mary Wine had me
flipping the pages as I wanted Darius to save Janette and for them to get it
through their thick skulls that they needed to be together and get over their
pride of being independent and self-sufficient.
Nothing wrong with that but let the love flow! Why deny yourself when you both want the same
thing? It’s good to have a curious
mind-and body. A fabulous read for those
who enjoy the London setting along with strong characters.
