 Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour for The Lady's Triumph by Shelly Adina & R.E. Scott, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours! About the Book Title: The Lady's Triumph Series: The Regent's Devices #3 Author: Shelley Adina and R.E. Scott Publisher: Moonshell Books Release Date: September 28, 2022 Genre: Regency Steampunk Only one thing could be worse than Napoleon’s invasion of England… After their daring adventures behind enemy lines in France, Loveday Penhale and Celeste Blanchard cannot settle into everyday life at home. Has the Tinkering Prince forgotten them entirely? What of the prize he promised? Then, with the flourish of a royal messenger’s hand, their lives are changed. Not only have they won the prize, they are to join the Prince’s Own Engineers in London! They must overcome many a stone in the path, however—leave all they love, find a suitable house, and worst of all, cope with a chaperone—before they can take their rightful places among the most intelligent and forward-thinking minds in the kingdom. Their goal? To develop an airborne fleet that will end Napoleon’s dreams of conquering England forever. But the saboteur who has been plaguing their efforts for months has not yet been caught. And along with battling for acceptance among the engineers, tiptoeing closer to falling in love, and receiving invitations to Almack’s, they must discover the traitor’s identity … before the Prince Regent steps forward to command the fleet and finds himself playing right into Napoleon’s hands.

About the Book Hazel Thornton has one great ambition: to help the sick and wounded as a nurse. But that dream can never become a reality. After a devastating childhood trauma, she has spent her life battling fits of panic that make it impossible to finish her studies. Everything changes, however, when a trip to Spain takes a perilous turn that derails her plans to visit her father for Christmas and immediately plunges her into the dangers of a brutal war. With single-minded focus, she springs into action to help her fellow travelers. To ensure their continued care, she begins work at a Spanish hospital alongside Dr. Jim Jackson, a man whose only emotion seems to be wariness of his new assistant. Armed with gifts of support from each of her dearest friends, a group that dubs themselves the Blue Orchid Society, Hazel embarks on a journey of hope and healing to battle the demons of her past with the help of the doctor who has captured her heart.

Review
In the short story collection Sinister Secrets, authors Traci Hunter Abramson, Clair M. Poulson, and Paige Edwards have come together and created a collection of stories that viewers of the TB shows White Collar and Leverage will absolutely love. Each author has a unique way of writing that draws readers in with intense suspense, a touch of romance, and plenty of adventure and action.
Secrets of Augustine by Traci Hunter Abramson This story is fast paced and action packed. It’s the story of a young orphan girl who runs away from private school when she overhears a plot to have her murdered so some men can embezzle her fortune. An agent on vacation with his family discovers her and they work together to save her. Readers will thoroughly enjoy the family focused elements of the story mixed in with the action and many twists and turns of the story. Hounded by Clair M. Poulson This story focuses on a retired Army Ranger that gets hired as a private investigator. He’s trying to help his boss solve a case where a woman is wrongly accused of murder. But then someone from his boss’s past shows up and keeps sending threatening notes, creating another case they have to jump on to solve. Plenty of action and intrigue as the story jumps around with the two cases to solve. In Plain Sight by Paige Edwards Of the three stories in this collection, this story has the most romance. A woman in the wrong place at the wrong time, she ends up having to work along side an FBI operative if she wants to live.
