Mission� Impossible: The pixies� mission�if Allegro and Glissando are to accept it�is to secure the future of a troubled England. To achieve this, the Earl of Falconwood, better known as the Black Falcon, must marry Nicola Moore. Never mind the woman is a hoyden who makes the most atrocious hats decorated with machine parts, which she then dyes with her famous Clockwork Blue.
And certainly forget the earl is atoning for his brother�s death by purposely hovering on the fringes of the ton. Add to the mix Glissando�s tendency to slip to the side of the Mrasek, the ones who work to free the evil Lord Sethos.
But Maestro depends on the pixies�for better or for worse. To release the magic trapped in the Clockwork Blue dye�a magic that will safeguard England�s future�Malcolm and Nicola must not only wed, but they must also fall in love.
Praise for Gloria Harchar:
Nicola has a heart that is open and loving to those around her. She has been taking care of her father and cousin for many years. So, when Malcolm, the �Black Falcon�, tells her he wants her father�s Clockwork Blue dye in exchange for not deporting her cousin, she has to find a way to make it happen, even if it is sacrificing herself to the Black Falcon. That may not be so bad - he is a very handsome man! Nicola feels he is a good man down deep and she is very drawn to him.
Malcolm can think of one thing and one thing only: the Clockwork Blue dye that will make his ambitions come true. He needs this and the only way to get it is through Nicola. He will do whatever it takes to obtain the dye - including threats to deport the cousin of the young, na�ve Nicola. The plot thickens as a couple of pixies and a black hearted earl are thrown into the mix!
Put all this together and one finds a story that is filled with darkness from the past that threatens to block the light of any future good. Readers may be pleasantly surprised at how this tale unravels. �Clockwork Blue� throws together a little bit of fairy tale, a touch of mystery, with a sprinkling of steampunk, and a romance that does not always feel romantic! Parts of the story do not seem to play out completely before coming together, but ultimately, this tale is superb and is destined to fill the heart with joy!

Note: As of October 11, 2012, Clockwork Blue is now a �sweet� Fantasy Romance filled with emotion. There are equal parts of Fantasy and Romance with hints of the Steampunk wave which is starting to affect the alternate world I�ve set up. In Book #2, The Copper Tuners, the reader will see the Steampunk wave affecting society more.
