A Gentleman and a Rogue
by Stephanie Burkhart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Steampunk romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Lady Keira Russell is destined to bring compressed
natural gas to Britain. Her inner courage and mental toughness rarely falter –
except when Prince Edmund Windsor is involved.
Edmund of Wales is from the future. His last jaunt through history muffed up the time line. Now, he's here to set it straight and win Keira's heart.
For Keira, if it isn't one obstacle, it's another. Queen Victoria has sponsored a competition to find a cleaner fuel source than coal. Keira's father is trying to build a windmill and the Ridgecrofts are working with gasoline. Then there's Edmund, whose sensual kisses and heated stares distract her down to her bones.
Keira has a choice: trust Edmund's notorious mischief-making or put her faith in Queen Victoria to make the right decision, but if Keira makes the wrong choice, the future of Great Britain will be changed forever.

EXCERPT ONE:
The song ended and Edmund grabbed
her hand, tugging her toward the nearest hallway. At first, she wanted to
protest; call out for her father and defy Edmund's wishes, but then reason
kicked in. She wanted -- no, needed -- answers. And, she had plenty of
questions.
They entered the main wing, and
passed two rooms before Edmund opened a door and dragged her inside. Books
littered the shelves. The library. A beam of light from a full moon shined
through the window, casting Edmund's features in sharp, contrasting shadows. He
leaned against the door and crossed his arms. His eyes narrowed, giving his
expression a dark, hard edge. He looked like a devil in this moment. She
steeled her shoulders, ready to do battle with him.
Silence grew between them as they
both set their postures. Damn Edmund. She wanted to kiss the devil senseless.
Thankfully, she still had her wits.
"What are you doing with Jonas
Byron?" Edmund's voice was cold and exact.
"Dancing." She surprised herself
with the ease of her retort.
"Looked more like flirting to
me."
"Jealous?"
A muscle twitched in his jaw.
"No."
"You are a horrible liar."
"Keira, you can't trust
him."
She placed her hands on her hips.
"Curious, you're the second man tonight to tell me that."
"Grayson has your best
interests at heart. You need to listen to him."
"He's been missing for four
years." She paused, glaring at him. "Like you have. And I thought you
weren't coming back."
"I'm here now, and I'm not
leaving you again."
She tilted her head and laughed. Oh,
yes, he'd leave her again, and she had no intention of letting her heart get
broken.
Edmund lunged forward, placed his
hands on her waist, and pulled her against the length of his hard, muscled
body, trapping her arms between them so her hands rested on his chest. His
emerald eyes flamed with desire. Her heart turned over in response. His unique
scent, spice and currants, weakened her resolve. As her memories flooded
through her mind, her lips ached for his.
"God, Keira, don't test me like
this."
