Publisher Description
"McMaster's characters are beautifully drawn and the tension between them is completely smoking... [a] dark, menacing and strangely beautiful world." - RT Book Reviews
Determined to destroy the Echelon she despises, Rosalind Fairchild is on seemingly easy mission. Get in. Uncover the secrets of her brother's disappearance. And get out.
In order to infiltrate the Nighthawks and find their leader, Blue Blooded Sir Jasper Lynch, Rosalind will pose as their secretary. A dangerous mission, but Rosalind is also the elusive Mercury, a leader in the humanist movement.
But she doesn't count on Lynch being such a dangerously charismatic man, challenging her at every turn, forcing her to re-evaluate everything she knows about the enemy. He could be her most dangerous nemesis—or the ally she never dreamed existed.
A stunning, action-filled paranormal romance, Bec McMaster's London Steampunk novels will appeal to fans of Gail Carriger, Kristen Callihan's Darkest London series, and the Blud series by Delilah Dawson.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The third trip to McMaster's vampiric steampunk world (after Kiss of Steel and Heart of Iron) is rich, dramatic, romantic, and dangerous. Rosalind (code name Mercury), the leader of the "humanist" movement in Victorian London, fights for humans to have equal rights in the aristocratic Echelon world. She despises the pseudo-vampires known as blue bloods. Hoping to locate her missing brother, Rosalind goes undercover as Rosa, a secretary for Sir Jasper Lynch: Master of the Nighthawks, blue blood, and sworn enemy of Mercury. Lynch's first encounter with seductive revolutionary Mercury left them both full of forbidden lust, and now he's developing feelings for his new secretary. Rosalind is torn between two worlds, surprised at how her opinion of blue bloods can change, but still wary and distrustful. Meanwhile, Lynch is investigating a series of horrific massacres committed by Echelon members in the throes of frenzied bloodlust. Sensuous memories and unfulfilled desires help build tension between the leads, and fans will enjoy the expansion of McMaster's detailed setting.

Captain of her heart
I likes the characters of this romance and was captivated by the story. Some of the plot got a little too tangled but kept me reading despite my annoyance .
