Beauty and the Clockwork Beast by Nancy Campbell Allen
Beauty and the Clockwork Beast: Steampunk Proper Romance #1 (2016, Shadow Mountain) by Nancy Campbell Allen is a recent offering and includes mystery, a steampunk twist on a classic trope, and romance on the sweet heat level side. I rounded up some information and links so you could see if this paranormal/gothic steampunk romance is up your alley!
Here’s the blurb:
Jane Eyre meets Beauty and the Beast. When Lucy Pickett arrives at Blackwell Manor to tend to her ailing cousin, Kate, she finds more than she bargained for. A restless ghost roams the hallways, werewolves have been reported in the area, and vampires lurk across the Scottish border. Lord Miles himself is clearly hiding a secret. He is brash and inhospitable, and does not take kindly to visitors—even one as smart and attractive as Miss Pickett. He is unsettled by the mysterious deaths of his new wife, Clara, and his sister, Marie. Working together, Miles and Lucy attempt to restore peace to Blackwell Manor. But can Lucy solve the mystery of Miles? Can she love the man—beast and all?
