 “What do you propose, sir?”

He held her astonished gaze as he went down upon one knee. “Why … I propose.
Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife, so that I may accompany you to San Francisco de Asis and help you stop this war?”

Book 12 in the Magnificent Devices steampunk series!

If a wedding won’t stop a war, what will?

Sophia Brucker is torn between two young men: David Fischer, whom she has known since childhood, and Gabriel Langford, the new arrival.
Under the elders’ approving eyes, it seems Gabriel is dedicated to worshipping God. But his methods may not stand up to too close a scrutiny ...

**COMING SOON!!**
Rebecca Hodder has always been content with her life in the Old Order Mennonite community of Mitternacht—until Zeff Eliason moves in as her father’s new farmhand. Zeff is a fallen angel who needs to get to the next level of hell in a bad way—and Rebecca is going to help him get there.

And the ghosts of a Prohibition-era gangster and a glamorous flapper need them both.

The family circle is all Daisy and Freddie have longed for. But sometimes a circle can close ... and constrict ... and kill.

"It’s hard to believe we’ve come to the end of this wild and twisty Victorianish-steampunky adventure, following along with Freddie and Daisy Linden and their friends as they searched for their missing father, Professor Linden. And while everyone involved deserves a bit of ‘happily ever after’ rest and relaxation, first they’re going to need to deal with just one more hurdle; a ruthless, vile gang of air pirates. After all, this is the Mysterious Devices series—we’ve read five previous books filled with their adventures, and we know how author Shelley Adina loves to keep her characters on their toes.

The star of this installment, as far as I’m concerned, is little Davey. He’s put into a really terrible predicament, and after all is said and done, he comes through with flying colors (see what I did there, those who’ve read it) and gets exactly what he deserves. Prepare to be heart warmed. And for those of you wondering if there’s a chicken: don’t worry, Shelley would *never* let her flock down, now would she?

The story is set in the wild, beautiful country between Port Townsend, Washington State and Victoria, British Columbia. It made this Seattleite now turned Michigander quite homesick. All in all, I heartily recommend the Mysterious Devices series. If it’s new to you, be sure to start at the beginning, as each book builds on the previous. I wonder what sort of adventures Shelley Adina will hatch next?"

Who said life is but a dream after the wedding?

“The Air Affair” is a prequel short story to the Lady Georgia Brunel Mysteries set in the Magnificent Devices steampunk world. Though these stories can be read as standalones, there are threads of love and family running through them all. No strong language, just a very proper kiss or two and a satisfying solution. If you like books by Gail Carriger, Emma Jane Holloway, or Lee Strauss, you’re in the right place. Enjoy!

"Shelley Adina has brilliantly combined steampunk with the ‘clockwork cozy’ in this series in which a young painter solves mysteries. Best of all, the novels feature familiar characters I love from her bestselling Magnificent Devices series. I can’t wait for the next book!” —Nancy Warren, USA Today bestselling author of The Vampire Knitting Club

April 1895. A painting holiday in steampunk Venice. A villa on the canal. A body in the water?

Join Lady Georgia and her Aunt Millie in the first of their globetrotting adventures—where solving mysteries is always on the itinerary!
