Fiery Cadence is assigned as both gun expert and bodyguard when the senior crew of the Airship Vulpes is hired to transport precious cargo.
Jonathan Archer is determined to reach the Exposition Universelle where his inventions might finally be recognized and he'd have a future beyond the small village in which he'd been born.
Meeting Cadence expands Jonathan's world view in ways he never thought possible and he has every intention to get to know Cadence better on the way from New London to Paris. Journeys rarely go as planned though, and the two things Cadence can rely on like clockwork are her captain's explosive temper and the opportunity for a good fight.
