Elven debutante Stelia Tercell is a wannabe wallflower, but her status draws attention. Her father is so famous, she's even caught the eye of the prince. Anyone else would be thrilled, but Stelia has no interest in balls, gowns, and royals. Stelia cares more about her father's plantation and the human slaves who work there. They deserve to be free, but no one agrees with her—until now. A handsome enemy soldier slips into her room, and like Stelia, he wants to free the slaves. Unfortunately, he might also want to kill her father. Airships & Dragons is a fusion of fantasy, historical romance & steampunk elements.

Buckle up for a wild ride through multiple steampunk universes in Steam & Sail, where young heroines navigate treacherous skies of romance and intrigue in three unique series starters.

Will she find a way to break free and reclaim her throne, or will she be forever trapped in a world of steam and shadow? Prepare for a mix of romance and rebellion in An Elven Debutante (Book One in Airships & Dragons), where Stelia, a quiet young noblewoman, defies convention and risks everything to protect a forbidden love. When her act of defiance sparks a chain reaction of danger and intrigue, she must rely on wit and courage to survive.
