A world where ships fly through the air is the perfect setting for a handsome, rogue captain, haunted by his past, and the fiery woman who hires him. Each has a secret that keeps them from getting too close, but both are strong, brave, intelligent, and a little stubborn. Futuristic pirates fly under steampunk captain Mikhail Denisov-part machine, part man, all exciting. Enter Daphne Carlisle, a professor and archaeologist who is willing to do whatever it takes to save her family. Through Daphne, the reader is able to enjoy the wonder of this world that has grown far too common for the likes of Denisov. She drinks up all the details, making readers feel as if they are aboard that magnificent vessel. The chemistry between Daphne and Denisov keeps readers on their toes, waiting to see if they will ever meet in the middle. Verdict Archer (Demon's Bride) offers an intriguing plot that grabs readers' attention and doesn't let go until the end. Recommended to anyone who enjoys steampunk romances, or those captivated by the steampunk take on pirates.-Sonnet Ireland, Univ. of New Orleans Lib. (c) Copyright 2012.
