About this book

A brutal murder leaves a young gentleman dead at the hands of a shape-shifter, pulling Charlie and Lincoln into a web of deceit that reaches the highest echelons of power. As they navigate an alternate reality teeming with restless ghosts and hidden agendas, they uncover a treasonous conspiracy involving the royal family and the very committee meant to protect their world. Amidst the chaos of a sinister love triangle and systemic corruption, the line between ally and enemy begins to blur.

Lincoln’s alpha-hero instincts are pushed to the breaking point as the investigation turns deadly. His suffocating need to shield Charlie from harm brings back painful memories of a time he forced her away to keep her safe, creating a friction that is as volatile as the mystery they are solving. Their partnership is tested by the weight of his protectiveness and the growing dangers that threaten to tear them apart forever.

This installment is a masterclass in dark-romance and paranormal intrigue. With a seamless blend of high-stakes action and palpable tension, it is the perfect pick for readers who crave relatable characters and a plot that never sits still. Dive into this gripping journey where love, loyalty, and betrayal collide under the veil of moonlight.

It’s an entertaining series with no lapses or dull conversations and plots that seem woven seamlessly in an alternate reality which is not so far out that you have to memorize a whole new culture. 👍👍👍💜 )

Good read from Archer. I am so enjoying this series! I liked this book, the characters and the plot. Something is always happening and Lincoln and Charlie never sit still. Looking forward to reading the next installment. )

I have recommended this series to a number of people

I have recommended this series to a number of people. 1.) The characters are relatable, and developed enough that there is investment in what happens to each of them. The transition of Lincoln has been a delight to see and read. Seth is another favorite character, the charming man with the questionable past. Gus needs more work in my opinion to fully develop. I feel he has been given tidbits of information and personality that need to be grown upon. 2.) The story arc seems to be moving a bit on...

I love this series

This series is just amazing, and when you think there is not much left to happens in this series, then you realize your so wrong and even the smallest little details from previous books suddenly matter, and twist into new troubles. Should also be mentioned even if the story of the main characters did not have more to write about, the individual mysteries to be solved is still great. )

Great steampunk romance

Charlotte and Lincoln are still searching for the shape shifted, and the danger keeps increasing. Lincoln is showing his over protective side again, and Charlotte is afraid that he will try to send her away again. I like how the author has managed to keep the romance plot going through all the books, and showing us that love is very rarely easy and linear. )
