Title: Victorian Scoundrel
(Windsor Diaries #1)
Author: Stephanie Burkhart
Category/Genre: Steampunk Romance
It's 2011 and compressed natural gas has taken over from the
coal producing steam machines of the Victorian Age. Alice Windsor, Princess of
York, follows her mischief-making cousin, Edmund of Wales, back to 1851 where
Prince Albert is hosting Britain's Great Exhibition.
Alice soon finds herself over her head in trouble. Edmund is
determined to help Prince Albert build a dirigible and the prime minister
appears intent in preventing her from stopping Edmund. Alice knows it's too
early for the massive flying machine to take to the air. Complicating matters
is the passionate Grayson Kentfield, Earl of Swinton. Alice can't stop her
pulse from pounding when she's near him.
Can Alice give her heart to a man from the past while
working to stop Edmund from changing history?
Grayson
nodded his head and smiled at Keira as Alice trailed after her cousin. She
caught up to Edmund, and placed her hand on his elbow to catch his attention.
She leaned close, keeping her voice low.
"I
have news."
"Oh?"
He plucked a glass of wine off the tray and handed it to her. She held up two
fingers, meaning she wanted wine for her and Grayson. He gave her another
glass.
"I
have my necklace back, Ed."
He raised
a skeptical eyebrow. "Really?"
Alice
glanced at her purse. "It's in there."
He
frowned. "Well, I guess we can go home now." "What's the frown
for?" she asked.
"It
just so happens I'm enjoying Keira's company."
Alice
bunched her lips, agreeing with his sentiment. "And I'm enjoying
Grayson's."
Edmund
grabbed two glasses for himself and they wandered back to their dates.
"The right thing to do is go home, Cousin," said Edmund.
"Well,
yes, but..."
"But,
what?"
"Grayson
invited us to his estate in Sandhurst next weekend -- Keira as well."
"Naughty,
naughty, Cousin."
