Happy (Belated) Release Day to Kristen Painter!

UPDATE: So, Kristen's release day was actually yesterday. Whoops! But that doesn't mean we can't party like it's 1999, right? Or should that change to 2099 now?? To make up for the oversight, I will give away a surprise fantasy book to the first commenter who can tell me who Pandora's parents were, according to Greek mythology. ;-)

MISS BRAMBLE AND THE LEVIATHAN by Kristen Painter is celebrating its book belated birthday!

Here's the 411:

The last thing she planned to steal was his heart.

The Company. Military institution, protector of Praeton and the nation of Grand Isle. Dirty rotten thief.

When Pandora Bramble steps aboard the Company’s premiere airship Daedalus it’s not for the exclusive VIP tour. It’s to secure proof that the Company stole the regulator valve her father designed—even if it means tearing the engine apart. Foiled by the unexpected appearance of a handsome crew member, she despairs of ever getting another chance—until he kisses her.

Captain Theolonius Hatch, sentenced to engine room duty for refusing to take part in the Company’s fleet week activities, never dreamed a woman like Pandora existed. Her brains match her beauty, a combination that adds up to more trouble than he ever expected.

As Pandora allows Theolonius to sweep her into a whirlwind courtship, her wildest dreams come true. As do her greatest fears, leaving her to decide what matters most. Loyalty…or love.\The clock's ticking.

Warning: This book contains airships, mechanical owls, women who are good with tools, men in and out of uniform, steam generated by engines and people, and some hot carriage scenes.
