Great story plot and loveable characters. Magic, mystery, and love story all in one.  Fun to read and not complicated.  Can't wait to read the next book.

    Delightful Surprise
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2018*

India Steele has lost her father, her no-good ex-fiance, and her family's clock shop all in the last two weeks. She has nothing left, so when a mysterious American man offers her employment helping him navigate the industry her father weened her on, she jumps at the chance. He's looking for a specific watchmaker to fix a special watch and she knows every shop in town.However, she sees him use the watch's special powers on the same day she sees a notice than an American outlaw is on the run and has been spotted in London. India has questions, but she's afraid of the answers. She needs the job, after all. The man plans to leave town in a week, so if she can complete her task for him, she can use the money to get back on her feet, and maybe even claim the reward money in the process. She just needs to avoid being distracted by his motley crew of friends, his charm, or his undeniable good looks.Pros: Fantasy romance and clean read. It's fun, it's quirky, and I'm more than a little in love with one of the side characters. The chemistry between India and Mr. Glass is fun and tension-filled without being forced. SIngle POV.Cons: A wandering subplot and pacing issues. I have been assured by a friend that what I call a wandering subplot is not so wandering once you read the rest of the series, but I think that means it could have been handled better in book one.Overall: An interesting premise, good characters, and strong voice overcome the structural flaws to make this book lovable. It would make a great weekend read and despite its issues, I had fun with it and plan to read the second book of the series.

Left to her own devices by the death of her father and the machinations of her former fiancé, India Steele finds herself struggling. Fortunately for her, an accidental encounter with Matt Glass enables her to find a new job helping the enigmatic American find a mysterious watchmaker, one who they say might just be the key to saving Matt’s life…Set in the Victorian era, this book is steampunk without the steam (well watches have cogs and gears, so it counts!). The characters are quite delightful, though if you were like me, you’ll have met a few of these characters some thirty years on in the spin-off glass library series. Yes, that means some things were slightly spoilered, but not too badly.India is a brave mix of innocence, bravado, and competence. She’s smart, and observant, and makes for an interesting sleuth.Matt Glass is a mysterious figure, and rather roguish in his behaviour (and misbehaviour) which makes him just as intriguing.Put them together with their misfit crew, and you have an entertaining, and very enjoyable historical mystery, with slightly magical overtones.The book completes one part of the mystery story, but there is an overarching mystery that isn’t completed yet, meaning it will have to be finished in future stories. It’s not quite a cliffhanger, but you’ll want to read the next book to find out what next!That being said, this is an entertaining tale, with an intriguing, mysterious, magical element, which means it’s a great read for paranormal mystery enthusiasts.
