The Madame of Gravestone (The Corset Chronicles #1)
by
Misty Burke (Goodreads Author)
Tripp Monroe is on an easy assignment, photographing the Kansas City Steampunk Ball. Attendees dressed in costume, playing with mechanical gizmos, surround him and he’s bored out of his mind. Until…until he’s thrust into a world he’d never imagined. Into a world where the Civil War ended without a winner. Where the North walked away and the South formed their own crippled...more

The Madame of Gravestone has a wonderful premise with good character development. I liked how Emma and Tripp interacted at the beginning of the book, but felt the emotional jump to love was unexplained. There is however no doubt that they were hot sexually. The hidden plot twist was good and pulls the whole story together. The dialogue was good, and the settings were shown well. The steampunk aspect was excellently done! After all the good things about the book, from the inventions, the cool ide...more
Madame of Gravestone was very fun to read. Step back into a different time and find a woman that lives a traitorous life, who meets a man from a different time to help her with her adventure in overthrowing the king. You’ll find some twist and turns in the story and some hot sex along the way. I had a hard time getting into the first of the book, but over all it was a very nice read.I am looking forward to the next Corset adventure.

Photographer Tripp Monroe can’t believe he’s assigned to photograph the Steampunk Ball and he really can’t believe what the crackpot who’s throwing it is telling him. Professor Greggor claims there’s an alternate universe. One in which the Civil War ended quite differently. The North stepped away from the war, the South formed its own country, and the West pulled away, forming a monarchy known as Westland....more

The Madame of Gravestone has a fantastic setting for an awesome Steampunk read. The idea of Gravestone as a floating town housing rebel women looking to cease the selfish advancements of the King is intriguing. Emma who is the leader of the rebel pack is feisty, brave and loyal to the people of Westland. She also hold a secret that really took me by surprise.
