Binding the Baron (Alchemy of Desire #1)
Charlie Lane
In a dark, West London bed chamber, Diana Chester sees the truth—she’s inherited her dying grandfather’s transcendent magic. And she’ll be killed for it. It should be heating up her cousin’s blood. He’s the heir. She’s an aberration. And he wants the magic that’s rightfully his, no matter what he must do to get it.
Diana runs.
And is caught by a disgraced alchemist prince.
Exiled from alchemist society, Temple Grant, Baron Knightly blames himself for his family’s downfall. With no connections and dwindling opportunities, he joins the glamoured, transcendent world of West London to make it right. But the King demands absolute Temple must take a wife from their ranks or lose the king’s favor.
Diana Chester possesses the right pedigree to please the king. She’s intriguing, too, and with her own reasons for a hasty marriage.
A convenient binding.
Complicated by desire.
Made almost impossible by a city divided.
The might of metal. The glitter of glamours. Diana and Temple belong to different sides of London. Love can bind them, but is it enough to bridge their dueling worlds?
Forbidden love, class difference, and a marriage of convenience makes for binge-able reading in this historical fantasy romance brimming with magic and a touch of steampunk.
