About this listen
For Mae, the loss of her father is devastating. She and her mother lose their home, and Mae's plans for a university education are in ashes. Offered a job at her late husband's company, Mae's mother accepts and they move to a bustling city unlike the quiet village they love.
Mae finds a job as a secretary at a factory. When she meets the owner's son, Augustus, they are drawn to each other. But his family wants nothing to do with Mae.
Civil wars breaks out in Amston, creating more changes for mother and daughter. Forced to leave their apartment, Mae is allowed to only take the things she needs. Those include her father's notebooks. As Mae reads them, she discovers secrets upon mysteries, and the plans for a weapon that can decide the war's outcome.
Mae is torn between the two sides. Knowing the plans will result in victory for one side over the other, she must make a decision as to who gets the secrets. She only hopes she can choose the right side.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 108
Aida Palmer performs a spirit medium show onstage at Chinatown's illustrious Gris-Gris speakeasy. However, her ability to summon (and expel) the dead is more than just an act. Winter Magnusson is a notorious bootlegger who's more comfortable with guns than ghosts. Unfortunately for him, he's the recent target of a malevolent hex that renders him a magnet for hauntings. After Aida's supernatural assistance is enlisted to banish the ghosts, her spirit-chilled aura heats up as the charming bootlegger casts a different sort of spell on her.

Now the Day Is Over
I want to preface this with the fact that I really did enjoy this book. The story is interesting, the romance is sweet, and the writing is smooth and pleasant to listen to. However, the book feels like all setup and very little action until very close to the end. Based on the description, I was expecting there to be a higher intrigue-to-everyday life ratio. Because of this, the climactic section felt rather rushed.
I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
