Only one thing could be worse than Napoleonâs invasion of EnglandâŠ
After their daring adventures behind enemy lines in France, Loveday Penhale and Celeste Blanchard cannot settle into everyday life at home. Has the Tinkering Prince forgotten them entirely? What of the prize he promised? Then, with the flourish of a royal messengerâs hand, their lives are changed. Not only have they won the prize, they are to join the Princeâs Own Engineers in London!
They must overcome many a stone in the path, howeverâleave all they love, find a suitable house, and worst of all, cope with a chaperoneâbefore they can take their rightful places among the most intelligent and forward-thinking minds in the kingdom. Their goal? To develop an airborne fleet that will end Napoleonâs dreams of conquering England forever.
But the saboteur who has been plaguing their efforts for months has not yet been caught. And along with battling for acceptance among the engineers, tiptoeing closer to falling in love, and receiving invitations to Almackâs, they must discover the traitorâs identity ⊠before the Prince Regent steps forward to command the fleet and finds himself playing right into Napoleonâs hands.
âAs with the previous titles in this series, these two authors blend together so well that I am unable to tell where one ends and the other continues. The story (or rather, the entire series) is fun to read. As I neared the ending, I slowed my reading pace. I wanted to make the story last as long as possible⊠and the ending left me thoroughly satisfied. Brava!â âDetra Fitch, Huntress Reviews
