The Blacksmith's Lover - The Clockpunk Trilogy, #2 - E-book - ePub

New England, 1840On the run after being caught in a scandalous incident, scullery maid Sarah Bailey must find refuge before her vengeful former mistress kills her. When she stumbles upon a blacksmith's shop in need of an apprentice, she applies for the position. Viktor is a brawny, reclusive blacksmith who creates fantastical clockwork and steam-powered devices. The gruff man makes it clear that Sarah's plight is no concern of his, but ghosts from his past dictate otherwise.
Viktor agrees to protect the spunky maid until her former mistress is no longer a threat-and not one second longer. Sarah quickly discovers that the fire of this blacksmith's forge runs volcanic hot. Unable to resist one another, she and Viktor begin a steamy affair. But how long will their idyllic arrangement last before Sarah's former mistress destroys it? In this workplace romance, there's only one bed for the grumpy loner hero and his sunshine heroine.
