This is the third and final book in the Clockwork Agents series. This book follows the story of Evie (the Warden's doctor) and Mac (a pirate and former lover of Evie's). At the end of this book it seems like there was plans for another story to start, but I couldn't find any plans for Cross to publish anymore in this series. This ended up being a fun, light, and fluffy steampunk read.

The majority of this story revolves around Evie and Mac as they try to dodge enemy pursuit and reconcile their feelings for each other. There is a light story thread involving a spy that Mac is trying to get back to the Wardens; this is the source of their enemy pursuit. However, this story thread is very scanty...just barely there. This book is really a romance-packed with some action and some nifty steampunk devices.

As long as you don't focus on how thin the plot is, this is a fun and quick steampunk romance read. There is some good action and adventure. Mac and Evie have great chemistry together and are fun to read about.

Overall this was a fun, light, and fluffy steampunk romance read. If you read this, don't expect an elaborate story, just sit back and enjoy the action and drama between Mac and Evie. The whole Clockwork Agents series was like this; like sweet and tangy candy...fun and entertaining but not a whole lot of actual content.
