🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
A steampunk, historical, thriller romance. I know that’s a lot of descriptions, but this book has them all. I enjoyed the story. The thriller part kept me on my toes, and the romance was a nice break from the murders. I could’ve done without some of the outfit descriptions; I just felt like they were abrupt and took my mind away from the story.

A murder mystery set in a Steampunk London. The female hero falls for the scoundrel, so the romance is a bit stereotypical.
