Freebie Friday: Science Fiction & Fantasy Historical Romance
Happy Freebie Friday! After reading Angelika Frankenstein Makes Her Match (an amazing Frankenstein-retelling reimagined as a historical romance) I found myself in the mood for more historical romances with a twist. This week's Freebie Friday is all about Science Fiction & Fantasy historical romances - think steampunk or magic in a regency era setting. Happy Reading!

[Book Review] The Girl WIth The Windup Heart By Kady Cross & Philz Coffee Ether
Spoiler alert: there is no girl with a windup heart in The Girl With The Windup Heart - in fact, the word windup doesn't appear anywhere in the entire book. Still loved the book though, it's very much like The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, characters with extraordinary abilities in a steampunk Victorian setting, but with more couples and romantic couple-ly plotlines.
