STEAM by Stacey Rourke
Genre: New Adult, Paranormal
Time passes, sins forgotten.
The bodies of the victims long since rotten.
Trapped within the essence of the Headless Horseman by the guilt of slaughtering her best friend, Ireland Crane follows the father of science fiction, HG Wells, in search of freedom from the curse that binds her. Instead, she discovers even he has a hidden agenda. A dark, relentless passion to be reunited with the woman he loves has driven him to manipulate time and a murderous Horseman.
Yet heed my warning, as the Raven flies,
The Hessian will come … and you will die.
All that prevents Ireland from abandoning Wells’ twisted pursuit, or introducing him to her sword, are the undead witches haunting her. Begging for freedom from a vile succubus, the ghoulish coven leads Ireland and her crew on a journey through Salem’s sordid past. There, they learn there is more to Nathaniel Hawthorne’s history than a scarlet letter, and the secret they’ve uncovered seeks to destroy them all.
My Review
~~I received this in exchange for my honest opinion~~
~~~POSSIBLE SPOILERS, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED~~~~
This is the 3rd book in the Legends Saga. This is also (in my opinion) the best book in the saga. This combines H.G. Wells, and the Salem witch trials with a very well known city (no, I am not going to tell you here in this review!!). Read this book and go back into time to see and feel what the witches were feeling at the time of the trials. Ireland is totally under the horseman's curse. Her companions, are at each other's throats. There is only one thing that can make Ireland feel better.
This book is genius. I love that Stacey has put two very famous cities in the same book and intertwined them together. She has made the ending of this series perfect. There is a partial opening at the end of this book for maybe a 4th book, however, if she didn't write a 4th book, you will be happy with how it ended.
I will continue to read Stacey's books. She is an awesome writer with a great imagination. Her stories are original with detail that makes them come alive. If you haven't read any of her books, then you are missing out!!
