The Lady in the Coppergate Tower

The Steampunk Proper Romances, Book 3

De: Nancy Campbell Allen

Narrado por: Elizabeth Knowelden

Hazel Hughes has spent her life believing she is a Medium - someone who can talk to ghosts. But as of yet, that skill has remained frustratingly elusive. She is also suffering from a reoccurring childhood dream of someone who looks almost exactly like Hazel, but this dream version of herself is slowly going mad.

Sam MacInnes is a talented surgeon who runs in the highest social circles thanks to his family's position and history. When Sam hires Hazel to assist him with his medical practice, he is immediately drawn to her intelligence, wit, and beauty. Their potential relationship is derailed one evening when a mysterious count arrives in London and reveals to Hazel the truth about her past: she was abducted at birth and her twin sister has fallen dangerously ill.

Hazel agrees to travel to Romania with Count Petrescu in order to save her sister, and Sam insists on accompanying her. The count has secrets, though, and the journey grows more sinister with every mile that draws Hazel closer to her homeland. Even as her feelings for Sam become deeper and more complicated, she fears she might not survive the quest to save her sister with her heart intact, not to mention her life. She must learn to draw on gifts she doesn't know she has if they are going to ever return home again.

Hazel and Sam must fight their way past dark magic, clockwork beasts, and their own insecurities as they try to reach her sister in the impenetrable Coppergate Tower before time runs out.

I can't decide my favorite?

I really got into the growth of the development of each character. I will go thru the whole series again when another is available.

It was wonderful!

I loved the story and the performance! It was a great story and fun characters.

Loved!

I loved this story, it’s different from your typical proper romance books. It was a fun change. Thank you.

Steampunk fairytale romance

this talented author cleverly weaves aspects of dracula, rapunzel and 20,000 leagues under the sea into her own steampunk world, and a very engrossing love story and adventure. I will always want more! the narrator was very good as well.

Creatively clever

Another wonderful story by Nancy Campbell Allen . Can’t wait to read the 4 th book in this series. A must read.

Best in the series so far!!

While I've enjoyed them all, this one edges out the others for two reasons.
1) the suspense
2) the narration
As always, the romance is so fulfilling, but the suspense and the narration is superb. I hope the narrator is used for the remaining books in the series.

worth the listen

I read another review that said the narrator was to breathy and while it is true she is breathy it almost is if everything is a deep mystery which doesn't help build suspense when needed. however the story is good and feeds well into the series.

Truly Delightful

Totally charming, sweet, funny, adventurous, romantic, and un-put-down-able! I love this series 💕

incrdible storyteller

how do you write aucy fun and engagi f rimances. The characters seem alive to me. Their emotions are not constantly changing like juvenile charactrs but VERY MUCH like adults. Thanks. wish you and your family have a great CHRISTMAS , new year and you find a way yo do more books FASTER.!!!!

Excellent, right up until the last chapter

Entertaining and fun as it was, and well worth listening, the blatantly manufactured attempt at emotional manipulation at the very end was so dumb it made me cringe through the entirety of the scene that was supposed to be dramatic.

* spoiler alert*

I mean really, having a supposedly strong and intelligent woman fall utterly to pieces and become a weepy mess because her still living boyfriend got some cuts and burns, five minutes after proving she has the healing power to restore a pile of bones to a fully fleshed breathing, speaking, powerful human? Just long enough for him to stop breathing? How dumb do you really have to be to think that's even the slightest bit realistic.
