Kiss of the Spindle

The Steampunk Proper Romances, Book 2

De: Nancy Campbell Allen

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

Doctor Isla Cooper is cursed. Literally. Each night, at the stroke of midnight she falls into a deep sleep from which she cannot be awakened for six hours. To make it worse, the curse has an expiration date - after a year, she will fall asleep forever. And the year is almost up.

In a desperate attempt to find Malette - the witch who cursed her - Isla blackmails her way onto Daniel Pickett's private airship bound for the Caribbean, only to discover she's traveling with three illegal shapeshifters and the despicable Nigel Crowe, a government official determined to hunt down and exterminate every shapeshifter in England. Isla and Daniel must work together to keep the identities of the shapeshifters hidden while coming to terms with their own hidden secrets and their blossoming attraction to each other.

Filled with suspense, intrigue, and plenty of romance, Kiss of the Spindle is a steampunk Sleeping Beauty story. It is a race against the clock as Isla and Daniel try to hunt down the elusive Malette before Isla's deathlike sleep becomes permanent.

Just as amazing as the first one!

I fell in love with Beauty and The Clockwork Beast and I have been awaiting the release of this book very impatiently! I was not disappointed! The original narrator is back and did amazing like last time, and the story is so good! It is equal to the first book in every way and I love it just as much! This is quickly becoming one of my all time favorite book series! Nancy Campbell Allen is immensely talented and brings new life to traditional stories! The books both stand alone and compliment each other in the most perfect way! Can't wait to see what's coming next!!!

A few of my favorite things

This has a bad guy well redeemed, steampunk (duh), strong chemistry, a father figure, well armed women with throwing knives, and a heroine who saves herself with the help of loyal friends. And a HEA, of course.

Book two

This is a series of three books 📚.It’s a who dunnit ,with witches and spells. The narrator is 👍. Love story though out the story. Very good writing…..🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼

Wonderful narration

A very interesting story, nice fantasy fiction without too much complexity. Justine Eyre really brings this story to life. What a delight!

Much better than book 1!!

So refreshing for a novel to have a genuinely strong female character just because that's who the character is. Also refreshing for a novel to have a genuinely strong female character without diminishing the male characters.

Highly recommended!

Delightfully Sweet and Entertaining

So far, this series has been a very pleasant read. It's fun to return to childhood stories with a twist.

A good mystery!

Once again, a lot of fun and a great mystery. While I made some guesses, the full story was satisfyingly revealing when we finally learnt it. The motives of the different characters felt complex and real, which I enjoyed and kept me guessing.

The best!

The best of Ms Allen’s work. I love this story. Adventure, heroine, hero rescue and romance. However what makes it the best is that it’s clean.
Thank you for a great adventure and an inability to put the story down.

Loved this

I loved the plot and everything else. Pls continue to write incredible stories like this

Steampunk romance

A delightful story about romance but with a story. Excellent use of the English language with not a swear word in sight. So easy to listen to and intriguing to follow.
